Beyond the Stars Dog Training

After Ginger passed away in 2019, I got Diablo the Xoloitzcuintli. I was determined to build that neutral/ well-rounded relationship again. I wanted him to see the world with camping, hiking, 4-wheeling. The stars were the limit. Unfortunately, Diablo had a very reactive personality by nature but is wicked smart and head strong. I dove head first into dog training seminars, classes, sports, etc to learn more. Dog training became an obsession. With every task I tossed at Diablo, he learned it and wanted more. He helped me learn that there is a way to communicate with any dog as long as you’re willing to keep your mind open and learn.
In 2023, I started working as a trainer at a corporate board and train facility. There, I worked with all different personality types and drives. From unmotivated with no food drive, to people aggressive with bite histories, to neurotic with high anxiety or extreme drive. I was able to put my knowledge to the test. It helped me realize just how many people are struggling with their dogs as well. It became my mission to keep as many dogs out of shelters or off the euthanasia table as possible. I could do that by teaching people to understand their dogs and create a plan to make their relationship better. I decided to venture on my own and thus began a new chapter in my life: Beyond the Stars Dog Training.
