What sets apart Valkyrie K9 Academy?
Shelley Martin – Professional Dog Trainer.
I uncovered my passion at Dog Training School five years ago, refining it since. I excel in understanding dogs, decoding their behavior, motivations, and fears, then using tailored games and training to connect with them. Clients dub me "The Dog Whisperer," grateful for reclaiming their dogs when other trainers have failed. My approach centers on meeting dogs where they are, guiding them to their potential through games, obedience, sports, and desensitization. I recognize individual fears and leverage drives to resolve issues. Dogs vary, they don't often fit standard training molds; my methods transcend cookie-cutter approaches. We offer more than training classes...a destination where learning through play is fostered and facilitated.
