Professional, positive reinforcement training so you can be a kind, confident leader and your dog can love life!
Fountain, CO
My name is Christy Shephard, my family and I moved to Colorado from NY a few years ago. I created my business in NY, where I held many different fun classes as well as training privately in clients' homes. Now, I am located in Fountain, CO, but I do also train in Colorado Springs with some other surrounding areas. I believe the bond between a dog and their people is of utmost importance. Using operant conditioning and positive-based training methods, we can teach all levels of obedience, fun tricks, helpful tasks, and fix unwanted behavioral issues. I am an AKC evaluator, trick dog instructor, CPDT-KA, service dog evaluator, therapy dog trainer, nose work and agility instructor and I continuously study animal behavior and the science behind it. I am a tremendous advocate for force-free training methods, and of teaching your dog how to learn. I enjoy working with dogs of all breeds, sizes, temperaments, and almost all realms of training. My goal is to show people how to train their dog, bond with their dog, fix unwanted behavioral issues, and enjoy the process. The first step is to set up a consultation, then we can discuss a training plan and get started. If you have any questions, please give me a call, send an email, or fill out the form below, and I will get back to you! I look forward to speaking with you!
