Meet The Dog Trainers

My name is Sarah. I have been around animals my entire life, I started working with horses and dogs when I was 12 and did training and showing for 6 years. In my early 20 I went to full time work with dogs, studying behavior, training and observation. I have been training for the last 16 yrs. Dogs are my life and passion. I’m so excited to work with Happy Tailz and get to spend all my time helping dogs and building great relationships with dogs and their owners!

Hi, my name is Bri. I graduated from the University of Wisconsin-River Falls in May 2021 with a Bachelor's Degree in Companion Animal Science. I have a versatile knowledge of dogs with my 8 years of experience in animal rescue, 3 years in veterinary work, 3 years in dog daycare, and 2 years of dog training. As a trainer, I wholeheartedly believe that I can achieve my clients’ desired results without ever inflicting pain, fear or intimidation on the dogs. My ultimate goals as a trainer is to bridge the communication gap between humans and dogs in addition to making the lives of dogs and their owners a more comfortable one!

Hi, I’m Brandon! I graduated from Animal Behavior College in 2022 as a Certified Dog Trainer, but have cared for dogs my entire life. Besides having my own, my family opened a boarding Kennel in 2014 where I have been involved since its inception, including managing full-time from November 2020-March 2023 working with dogs, and owners, of all different ages, shapes, sizes, and temperaments. It is my goal to ensure dogs, and their owners, are calm, comfortable, and confident with strong communication using the most positive, harm-free methods possible. I look forward to meeting you and your dog(s)!

Hi, my name is Grace! I have been involved with training since the young age of 12 years old. I started out with taking our family dogs to classes and I haven’t stopped since! This allowed me to find my passion of understanding animals on a deeper level. I am driven to train and help others understand human and animal communication while developing mutual relationships. I have 10 years of experience training and showing llamas. I have worked at dog daycares for 3 years as well as 2 years of dog training experience. While I was in college, I had an internship where I had the privilege to train and work with service dogs for a year! I believe I can help you and your dog accomplish your goals without the use of force, fear, or pain.
