You are bursting with ideas - if only you could do it all!

…but first you need to train your dog

None of the dog-training videos or tips & tricks are working.

You have become overwhelmed with the thought of training your dog.

You are blaming yourself for taking on too much, or not being good enough to manage all of this…

Arianne: Spiritual Gamechanger

With a lifelong passion for animal behavior and raising four children, over time I found the courage to embrace myself without judgment, blame, or shame.

Just as I wanted my kids to have learning opportunities, I also desired the same for our dogs. Giving them an environment where they can be their authentic selves fostered their unique personalities and fills our life with joy.

By blending my distinctive approach to dog training with spiritual and personal development, I have witnessed a positive impact on the lives of both dogs and humans. I firmly believe that with love, consistency, and unwavering commitment, anyone can create their lifelong dream dog!

Adinda: Communication and Support

I have always been surrounded by dogs, but the bond you have with your own is like nothing else. My 2-year-old rescue, Charlie came to me at a time when I craved purpose and love. He reminded me to be grounded and to make every day worth it.

Through the training techniques with Joyful Support, I was able to build a strong and lasting relationship with Charlie. As the trust between us grew, so did our confidence.

However, it was more than training him, it was loving and accepting myself for who I am. Our relationship deepened because we both grew individually.

I continue to apply our unique approach and live proof that love leads the way, especially in life! Most days you’ll find me in your inbox replying to a message or on your social media sharing joy.

Joy

Our incredible yellow lab, Joy, is a great example of unconditional love. She is our best friend, colleague, and teammate. She brings joy into our lives every day. Her unique skills are helpful with dogs and people. She is gentle, full of love, and authentic.

Joy reminds us of our purpose daily and she is the reason that we are where we are today. She has shown us that fear and punishment are not the way - love is.
