I studied with the VSA and then continued to expand my education with Mike Shikashio’s Aggression in Dogs Mastercourse, and Grisha Stewart’s Academy.    I work with pet dog owners in person and online on anything from puppy training to behavioural issues such as reactivity. I look at the whole picture and the dog’s life to come up with behaviour modification and training plans. I love helping dog owners gain confidence with their dogs and fall back in love with them as I know how tricky that relationship can be with a dog that struggles fitting into our world. My favourite area is working on building dog’s confidence which often is the cause of so many behavioural issues. You can connect with Eddy on Instagram, facebook, and through her website.

My goal is to understand biologically, physiologically, genetically, environmentally, emotionally, and cognitively what contributes to the presenting behaviors of clients that come to me. More often than not, we start work with an "aggressive" dog and end up working with a Veterinarian or a specialist on the manifestation of physical symptoms or internal casualties that are contributing to the behavior we label as "aggression" and also an enrichment plan that seeks to enhance the dog's quality of life and overall well-being. With that being said, I sometimes categorize myself as an impassioned pursuer of all topics related to canine wellness.  I want to educate every client that reaches out for help in a compassionate way that enables them to see their dog through multiple lenses not just the human lens of "getting rid of this undesired behavior." I love learning from all of the wonderful professionals around us and to see the evolving research and time being invested into applied ethology, canine nutrition, all species epigenetics, and more. Currently, I work in person doing canine behavior coaching in the Metro Jackson, MS area which is an eI previously worked in Delaware County, PA as a dog trainer and apprentice with Mattison, Freed By Training and as a group dog training instructor at A Pawsitive Improvement in Brandon, MS. I offer free consultations nationwide to shelters, rescues, and adopters who are working on transitioning a new rescue dog into their home and lifestyle.   You can connect with Kendyl on Instagram @SentientSparkyDogTrainingCo and her website.
