About HeidiPaws
HEIDI KERR CERTIFIED PROFESSIONAL DOG TRAINER (CPDT-KA) I am a professional dog trainer with a certification from Animal Behavior College and Certified Professional Dog Trainer-Knowledge Assessed, as well as a member of the Association of Professional Dog Trainers. My philosophy is simple: By understanding how a dog thinks and learns, you can use clear communication and positive reinforcement to teach, prevent, and modify behavior. Research proves that reward-based training delivers faster results in less time while enhancing the human-animal bond. Best results come when each desired behavior is rewarded with a reinforcer, something the dog likes (treats/praise), and the inappropriate behavior is not rewarded at all. Reward the good; ign

Heidi was great in training our puppy. She was a great resource and recommended socialization techniques and now his is friendly with all dogs. She was great at training different techniques and tips. One example of training success was- our dog used to bark when we vacuumed and now he ignores the vacuum! Her techniques and tips are very successful! I also loved that she would send review notes of each training session so that we could review and practice.
She is great with my dog.
