Founder and Lead Trainer

Hey there! I'm Erica, a total sucker for big dogs and guessing you are too.

As devoted mom (to dogs and kids), human health and mental performance coach, and a certified dog trainer, I have over 20 years of experience coaching people and working with animals. I can say firsthand that creating a synergistic and thriving relationship with your dog doesn't have to be a headache or a heartache!

My husband Rusty and I, along with our four sons and two pups, live in Tuttle Oklahoma.

I'd love to help you build an unbreakable bond with your dog. Schedule a consult with me below.
