Real World Training Scenarios – Our training takes place in real environments, ensuring your dog learns to behave around distractions. We help you and your dog practice skills in parks, neighborhoods, and public spaces, making obedience reliable in any setting.

Before I discovered Scotch Pines Dog Training, managing my dog Billie Bones was a constant challenge. That naughty German Shepherd was difficult to handle, especially around other dogs, out on walks, or even in our backyard.
But with Scotch Pines, our lives were changed! I had my dream dog — my adventure dog, going everywhere with me. Because of her, and the hard work we put in during training, I decided to become a trainer with Scotch Pines. I've loved helping people become their dogs' best friends.
I have happily trained thousands of people over the last twelve years — I can't wait to work with you!
