Trick Training
As a Certified Trick Dog Instructor (CDTI), I’m delighted to be able to assist pet owners in achieving trick titles, as well as learning tricks just for fun. Trick training is not only fun for both you and your pet, but it also strengthens your bond with your pet and provides necessary mental and physical exercise.
Trick witnessing for titles, as well as coaching, can be done virtually so this service is open to anyone who is interested. Tricks are not just for dogs, cats and other pets are welcome too! For more details click here.
