Meet Janae
Dog Trainer, Rescuer...
Misunderstanding leads to frustration for both humans and dogs. I’ve seen it time and time again. With over 9 years of experience in rescue and rehab, I’ve seen dogs struggle because of this. I’ve observed a lot about behavior in both dogs and people, that’s why my training isn’t just about obedience- its about understanding. A real understanding between you and your dog.
By focusing on the link between what WE do and the results WE get, I help both ends of the leash find clarity, confidence and trust.
Creating a shared language between you and your dog, using a customized, rewards-based balanced approach and dog psychology, lets turn struggles into success, leading to positive outcomes, better understanding, clear communication and a stronger connection.
WHAT IS BALANCED TRAINING?
AND WHY DOES BEHAVIOR MATTER?
Balanced training combines positive reinforcement—such as treats, praise, and rewards—with fair, thoughtful guidance and appropriate corrections when needed. The goal is to give dogs clear communication, consistent boundaries, and the skills to make better choices.
In essence, Balanced Training bridges the gap between the extremes of Positive only or Aversive training styles and combines the best of both worlds, ensuring dogs feel motivated to learn while also understanding boundaries to create well-behaved, confident dogs.
But training isn't just about teaching a dog to sit, stay, or come when called. Understanding why a dog behaves a certain way is just as important as teaching them what to do. Fear, frustration, anxiety, excitement, and unmet needs can all influence behavior. If we only address what we see without understanding what's driving it, we may miss the bigger picture.
That's why I look at both the behavior and the dog behind it. Together, we can determine whether your dog needs basic obedience, clearer structure, confidence-building, changes to their routine, or a more tailored behavior plan.
My approach is to help you understand your dog, build a stronger relationship, and create practical skills and boundaries that work in everyday life.
WHAT MY CLIENTS SAY
"Janae helped us overcome some behavior issues with our rescue. She helped us through a very tough time of kennel training and realizing it was a behavioral issue not a separation anxiety. She had very helpful suggestions and tools for making our adoption of a rescued boxer successful. We would absolutely rely on her for a future consultation!"
