Ethical, effective, positive reinforcement-based
dog training and help with
dog behaviour problems

About

I am a certified dog trainer through Kynolog.cz, with experience in private lessons in the Netherlands and an internship at the DOA shelter, a force-free shelter where I had the opportunity to learn from experienced trainers and behaviourists.

I specialise in working with reactive and fearful dogs, focusing on effective, ethical training that respects each dog's temperament. As a member of the IAABC, I continuously expand my knowledge, having completed multiple courses through IMDT, Grisha Stewart academy, IAABC's webinars and many more. Currently I'm pursuing a diploma in canine behaviour at BCCS.

My approach is based on science, empathy, and understanding—helping dogs without suppression, building confidence, and addressing behavioural challenges at their root.

From the moment I brought Sierra home from the breeder, it was clear something was off. She was afraid of everything—wind, leaves, movement, even a dog barking 20 meters away. Simply stepping outside was overwhelming for her, and I had to teach her, meter by meter, how to leave our apartment complex. Any sudden noise would send her running back home.

She was a textbook case for reactivity. Afraid of people, snapping at hands, hyper-alert to everything outside—especially bikes, dogs, and people. Living in Amsterdam, with its narrow streets and constant bike traffic, avoiding triggers wasn’t an option.

Now she is confident, enjoys the outdoors, and remains neutral in restaurants, around people, and even near bikes. The journey wasn’t easy, and with the knowledge I have now, it could have been smoother. She has been my greatest teacher and the reason I am so passionate about helping others navigate reactivity.

Sierra also sparked my deep interest in puppy development—understanding how genetics, early experiences, and even prenatal factors influence behaviour.
