You met the human behind Offbeat. Now let’s talk about what makes Offbeat, Offbeat.
There are a lot of ways to train a dog, but the way I work starts with getting curious about the one standing in front of me. But everyone says that in their marketing posts. So what the heck do I mean?
Who are they? What were they bred to do? What motivates them? What experiences have shaped them? How do they communicate? How does your dog hold their posture? How do they handle stress with you? And what does life with their person actually look like? I really want to know it all.
From there, a huge part of my job is teaching the human.
My clients get a shared language, education, resources, activities, and a 50-page guide I wrote to help make sense of everything we’re working on. We start with the little things: learning how to mark the good moments, knowing when a task is finished, communicating clearly, and becoming more intentional about the patterns we create every day.
Because the hour we spend together matters, but so does everything that happens after I leave.
Offbeat is built around curious dogs, dedicated owners, consistent practice, plenty of questions, and training that makes sense for the individual team.
But Offbeat is built by a women who works for herself to tell it like she sees it. I want training to make sense for you. When you hire a dog trainer, you are signing up to learn a skill that you should take pride in for the rest of your days as a dog owner. You are paying to be educated, Learn what application as a dog owner means, and to hopefully gain a new insight on your dogs existence.
And when it’s time for a tune up, we have options for that too. Private lessons, day training, trainer-led outings, board and train, field sessions, and AKC training and testing give us different ways to support different dogs and goals.
If the first carousel told you who I am, consider this one the liner notes for how I work.
Learn to live in tune with your dog.
