Meet Sarah, Your Dog Coach
As a qualified canine training specialist with a KPA-CPT and NZCAM-CBT certification, I am passionate about promoting positive, rewarding relationships between dogs and their owners. With six years of hands-on experience, I have developed a deep understanding of canine behavior and training.
My training philosophy emphasizes tailoring techniques to meet the unique needs of each dog and their human companion. By providing customized solutions, I aim to achieve effective and long-lasting results, ensuring the training process is both fulfilling and enjoyable. One client shared, "Sarah works with the dog and handler in front of her. Every part of her advice and training is tailored to your partnership."
As a member of the APDTNZ, I actively pursue opportunities to stay at the forefront of canine behavior and training. For example, I recently attended the Fenzi Dog Sport Academy Camp 2024 and regularly participate in classes, workshops, and webinars. This commitment to ongoing education allows me to deliver the most current and effective training methods to my clients, ensuring optimal results for them and their dogs.
My life is enriched by my three German Shepherds: Charlie, Mantis, and Rou. Together, we actively train in the demanding disciplines of Mondioring and Nosework. Our training journey is a reflection of our dedication and the success of the methods I apply with them.
At CANINE.NZ, my mission is to elevate performance and embrace excellence in helping you and your dog achieve your training goals. For instance, a recent client shared how their dog, Meadow, developed confidence and excelled in multiple disciplines under my guidance, stating, "Meadow’s world expanded tremendously when Sarah arrived." Whether you're pursuing competitive success or seeking harmony in everyday life, I am here to guide you every step of the way.
I invite you to reach out and schedule a consultation or join a class. Let’s work together to strengthen the bond between you and your dog and unlock your team’s full potential.
