General information

Life is a series of defining moments. Some define the way you think while others define where you will go. They become a code by which you live your life and define the person you are; or the person you hope to be.

I am no different. I remember vividly the moment that lead me to Natural Dog Training. I remember with graphic detail the moment my journey in life changed directions and brought me into the now; to the man I am today. I will never forget that day, that split second when life as I knew it was gone. Gone Forever.

I gave up. Through unconsolable tears and a broken heart, I said good bye to my loyal friend, who through no fault of his own; could no longer restrain his need, his desire, his natural self to fit into our human world. I felt helpless. I couldn’t fix him, I couldn’t give him what he needed because I didn’t know how. I instinctually knew what he craved but could not achieve. I just didn’t have the knowledge to put it into words, give it action, to bring it to life. I worked with dog trainers, veterinarians, animal behaviorists and seasoned rescue rehabilatators. We all tried everything we consciously knew, read, studied and lived. But nothing we tried brought him into balance. Nothing made him feel safe. Feel secure. Feel confident. Nothing. And so I lost him along with a part of myself.

As the days wore on and I struggled with my grief and my guilt, a close friend reached out to tell me about an NPR interview he had heard with a guy named Kevin Behan and my life changed again. That was the moment I found my passion, my calling, MY Balance.

Carolina Natural Dog was established on the principals of Natural Dog Training and the fundamental belief that energy is communication in it’s purest form. By learning to understand your Dogs natural energy, you can bring out their true, cooperative and loving character. I have spent years reading, studying and implementing these techniques with my dogs, dogs at local rescues and with my clients. I have seen remarkable changes in the behavior, disposition and tendencies of dogs that were once in the throws of instability. I have trained and consulted with the leaders of the Natural Dog Training philosophy to gain knowledge from their vast experience and bring it to my life and the lives of my clients here in NC. I want to bring this amazing philosophy to you and your dog. Together we can Discover your Dogs true nature
