about our TRainer
Andrea developed an interest in training after her first dog, Willow was adopted and presented with separation distress and some behavioral issues. Working intensely with her and under a local trainer, Willow has overcome her anxiety and at the age of 10, is still game for any training games. New pup Curry is 14 months old and keeping Willow on her toes. He has recently received his Canine Good Citizen certification. In February of 2020, Andrea received her CCDT certification through Catch Canine Trainers Academy and is continuing her education through workshops and webinars whenever she can attend. Following Curry’s paw steps, Andrea is now certified as a Canine Good Citizen evaluator
