Lead with love - remember quality time in mindfulness. Not just getting it done and do it for 1hr.

Spend mindful time with your dog. I was able to capture the moment in time today. Not just going through the motions of the day. Since having cancer, my priorities have changed and what I want to see in my life has changed. Remember live in the moment, cherish it, don’t just get it done. Pause. Listen. You’ll get more out of your day!

Leading with Love Dog Training

This rebranding couldnt have happened without the love grace kindness of others. We are here the help teach the world even though dogs have different views and different perceptions, if you listen you dog will learn extraordinary things

Nick Tietjen thank you for listening, seeing my vision and keeping it alive as I am going through this treatment. Making the business a new version of friendship, learning, and shared stories. You are going to do great! Thank you!

As I’m looking back for selected photos of Nick and Dominica. Thank you for your beautiful scarves, and I got a puzzle board! Puzzles are now my thing! Thank you also allowing Nick and I just talk about dogs for 3hrs! Time and time again.

Anyways lol on topic again. Dogs keep popping up that I’ve worked with over the years, your dog might be the way I relate to the human, but all of my human experience have been so positive I might have done it backwards, not the average way of learning, outside the box thinking, but it’s all about love, lead with love and it will all work out in the end.
Enjoy the few photos that made me smile! Thank you! I notice your feedback throughout the years.

Feel free

I want to say thank you to Sonja Gratton-Szego for making this beautiful GoFundMe for me. My business wouldn’t have been what it was before I got sick without all of you helping me make beautiful memories. Being able to share my knowledge to help you all have a better relationship with your dog.

Anyone who meets Rachel would initially gravitate towards her insane… Sonja Szego needs your support for Please help support Rachel in her battle with cancer!

I want to mention as I am focusing on my health and on my needs at this time, I am teaming up with Team Barking Nutz to help start his business, Nick started with me in the beginning and allowed me to teach him the rules of being the person your dog needs you to be, Bane was a very human reactive dog due to little socialization 0-6months old as during the hardest time in Covid! I also have 2 other clients who are interested in helping me, if you are interested in dog training consults (I am still doing consults, depends on my treatments most will be on the phone)
If you are interested in walking, boarding, play dates, etc. feel free to message and I will set you up to the best person, Newmarket, Georgina, Aurora! Feel free to message!
