Helping people and their pups grow and thrive together
Life with dogs and kids can be joyful, busy, and sometimes a little overwhelming. From puppy antics to toddler chaos, itâs not always easy to balance it allâand thatâs where I come in.
At Pups n People, I specialize in family-centered, positive dog training that helps you create a home filled with harmony, safety, and connection. Using gentle, reward-based methods, I will help you teach your dog practical skills while giving your family the tools to handle real-life situations with confidence, all within the setting of your own home.
Whether youâre preparing for a new baby, navigating life with toddlers and tails, or just hoping for calmer walks and happier greetings, my programs are designed with the whole family in mind. Together, weâll turn training into teamworkâso you can spend less time stressing and more time enjoying life with your dog.
Family First
I believe dogs learn best when the whole family is involved. Thatâs why my programs are designed to include parents and children, teaching everyone how to communicate with kindness, patience, and confidence. From basic manners to everyday routines, I make training simple, fun, and practical for busy households. Whether youâre juggling work, school runs, or kidsâ activities, Iâll help your pup learn good manners right where it matters mostâat home.
What is Reward Based Training?
Reward based or positive reward training is all about teaching your dog what to do instead of just correcting what not to do. By using rewardsâlike treats, toys, praise, or playâI reinforce good behaviors so your dog is excited to repeat them.
This method builds trust, strengthens your bond, and helps your dog feel confident and eager to learn. Itâs not about punishment or forceâitâs about creating clear communication and celebrating success.
Families especially love positive reward training because itâs gentle, effective, and fun for everyone involved, from toddlers to grandparents. It turns training into teamwork and everyday life into opportunities for learning.
