About WNC K9 Dog Training

RELATIONSHIP: Coaching owners to believe in their K9 partners by developing a powerful relationship is the foundation of my training program , obedience, sports, and/or behavioral modification. PROMISE: I’m excited to draw on my knowledge and experience to deliver the ultimate toolbox of training and behavior modification based on science and proven results! EXPERIENCE: For almost 30 years, I have been training and competing with my own dogs in scent work, SAR, tracking, and agility. I’ve enjoyed working alongside owners to accomplish training goals ranging from obedience, sports, and behavior modification , anxiety, on-leash or off-leash aggression, harmony in the house with multiple dogs, and sensitive dog issues like sep. anxiety.

She is a trainer. Our dog has done great since we started working with Gail.

Best place to help you built a working relationship with your pooch in WNC. After the first class, I had learned enough to train my dog how I wanted on my own, but we continued to go back for almost a year because we both enjoyed it so much.

My one year old red bone, Hank, felt like a hopeless battle at times. He would jump on all of our guests, tear apart our furniture, drag us all around the neighborhood on walks, and would not listen to anyone. At our wit's ends, we contacted A Good Dog's Life; and it was the best decision we could have ever made! Our goals were for Hank to be able to loose leash walk, adhere to commands, and have proper greeting manners. Upon meeting Gail and Hillary we knew Hank was going to be in great hands. They immediately began to point out behavioral issues and were able to come up with a training guide basically on the spot. It was sweet to watch them interact with Hank and although we missed him terribly over the nine day stint, we knew he was getting plenty of love and attention from the A Good Dog's Life crew. Throughout the process we received texts, calls, videos, emails and pictures of Hank's progress which was great! We came in for a few one on one sessions to make sure that Hank's new teachings would transfer over to us at home. When Hank finally came home it was like we had a new dog (with the same sweet heart). We have been able to loose leash walk him every night which is a huge deal and it has been so much fun keeping up with all the training tactics that he has learned. Our entire family is learning these tricks of the trade right along with him. I am beyond thrilled with this entire process and would absolutely recommend these services to anyone with a dog that needs some TLC. I loved their training tactics so much that I am enrolling my toy poodle in one of their other class offerings.
