Learn to help dogs and humans thrive in community in my online dog Academy:

Professional dog trainers and families with dogs get practical, theoretical, and emotional support in my collaborative online dog school.  We have well over 140 fascinating webinars and courses taught by my favorite international experts on dog behavior.

If you are a dog trainer, want to become a dog trainer, or you just have a dog who needs high-level training and care, you’re in the right place. [Learn More]

Why we are Empowerment Animals, LLC:

In a culture obsessed with dominance and hierarchy, more power may seem like the last thing you want to give your dog. Empowerment is actually an efficient, effective way to work through behavior ‘problems,’ because behavior is all about meeting needs.

When you remove obstacles in the way of learning and give dogs a way to meet their needs, their ‘misbehavior’ disappears. Humans AND dogs can become empowered, safe satisfied animals in collaborative interspecies families. That’s what Love is all about.
