Paw It Forward Dog Training



My name is Jeannie Oakley. I am the owner of Paw It Forward Dog Training.  I am a
Certified Dog Trainer and Certified Mentor Trainer graduating with Honors from Animal
Behavior College. I am also a level one Reiki Practitioner. Living with 4 Siberian huskies
and working with large packs of dogs, I understand them, their language and the
importance of teaching owners the difference between human language and dog
language. I continue to further my education by attending seminars and workshops
geared towards aggression and canine body language.  My training philosophy is to teach
owners to train their dogs using positive reinforcement. Positive reinforcement rewards
your dog for choosing the right behavior. If your dog jumps, teach them to sit instead.  
That behavior will get rewarded.  I strive to come up with unique services to set ourselves
apart from the rest.  

Gina Kline is owner of Out Of The Dog House and is an Animal Behavior College Certified
Dog Trainer and a Mentor Trainer.  Animal Behavior College or ABC is approved by the
Bureau for Private Post-secondary and Vocational Education and is an internationally
recognized school. Their program has provided Gina with the education in canine
obedience training and understanding canine behavior. Gina's affiliation with the
Montgomery County SPCA gives her insight into why owners surrender their dogs. She
can help new owners make a better life for their new family member by teaching them how
to be good, fair pack leaders, what to expect from their new dog and how to prevent some
of the issues that would cause the dog to being returned to the shelter.   She enjoys
watching her 4 year old son Cooper interacting with dogs. I must say that Cooper has won
the heart of my huskies.  Cooper has no problem at age 4 telling the dogs they must "Sit"
before getting attention.  Gina always brings me candy bars when she comes over too, a
nice perk!  Gina offers a unique weekly "Pack Walk".

Leatrice Miller is owner of B.A.R.K. n Friends and is an Animal Behavior College Certified
Dog Trainer. Lee is also a Reiki Master.  Lee brings her educational background as a solid
ground for our Canine Stability Center.  She has taught in classrooms for many years and
brings an organized optimistic energy to our group.  As a Reiki Master, Lee brings warm
loving energy that the dogs really enjoy. Dogs flock to her upon arrival to get their "Reiki"
fix. Lee is now teaching Flexible Format classes on Saturday mornings.
