Support your dog trainer by sharing your story

I began my training journey in 2007 when I adopted a spunky and challenging pup. He introduced me to some amazing trainers who helped me understand him and how to help him...that is where I fell in love with training. Since then I have continued my education to obtain more knowledge and certifications so that I can help others help their dogs by strengthening their relationship and communication with each other.

Certifications:

CPDT-KA, FDM, CGC Evaluator, Licensed Family Paws Educator

Dog training services include

  • Aggressive dog training
  • Reactive dog training
  • In home training
  • Off leash training
  • Puppy training

More info about Sarah Teffner's dog training:

Group training classes to develop life skills and private consults for basic training & behavior modification.

Behavioral issue focus:

I work with leash reactivity, fearful dogs, impulse control, resource guarding, and aggression issues.

Dog training methods:

I offer private consults to help develop positive training plans for people and their dogs. In the initial evaluation, I will get to know the dog and their family to help them build confidence in working together while strengthening their communication. I provide follow-up emails after the initial consult and all follow-up consults detailing the training plan & exercises to begin working on with their dog.

Why I became a dog trainer:

I have always loved dogs. They have been a part of my life since I was a child and I can't remember a time when I did not have a dog at my side. I became a trainer because I wanted to give back to dogs all that they have given to me. I enjoy working with people and helping them really see their & their dog's potential.

My favorite part of being a dog trainer:

I love when I see people begin to understand their dogs better and seeing the dogs thrive in their homes.

My #1 dog training tip:

Meet your dog where they are at...whether it be the developmental stage they are in or just where they happen to be on that particular day. Enjoy the process and remember it's a journey!
