More info about Noelle Saladin's dog training:

My focus is on developing cooperative relationships between humans and dogs to achieve mutually beneficial results. Whether you join me for basics, behavior, agility, or other sports class, the goal is to set up human and canine students for success by promoting engagement and enhancing communication skills. I view you and your dog as partners in training and value making dogs active participants in the training process. Utilizing training methods based on science-based standards, I follow an explicitly ethical framework for training, engaging dogs in learning and behavioral change through the use of reinforcement based strategies. My mission is to provide our students with the training techniques to create trusting partnerships with their dogs, which is the kindest, most effective method of training.

Behavioral issue focus:

Reactivity, fearfulness, over-arousal, general obedience skills, agility, tricks, and parkour.

Dog training methods:

My training approach utilizes a science-based, positive reinforcement approach. My goal is to make training fun, engaging, and practical for dogs and their owners, using choice based contextual learning to create desired patterns of behavior.

Why I became a dog trainer:

My journey began after rescuing a dog with behavioral issues. Having very little experience in how to help her, I signed up for Agility classes and we found a mutual love for the sport. The agility trainer I was working with mentioned an opportunity to teach classes as she was looking for trainers to work with new students. I had 10 years of experience coaching figure skaters, so transitioning my people skills to working with dog owners was a natural fit. What started off as a side job, to earn a little extra money, evolved into a passion and then a career when I left my full time desk job to fully pursue training.

My favorite part of being a dog trainer:

My students have become more than just clients, they have become part of a community. These amazing humans return week after week, year after year, to share in enriching the lives of their dogs through training, socialization, and friendship. Not only do they look forward to spending quality time with their dogs but they give so much back to their classmates and to me.

My #1 dog training tip:

View your dog as a partner in training, not just a student. As their guardian, you also have a lot of learn!
