Meet The Trainer
Hannah has had a lifelong love for dogs. She grew up around waterfowl dogs, assisting her dad in training them for the field. Hannah has always had a dog of her own ranging from adopted mix-breeds to gun dogs. Hannah has apprenticed under Mike Stolhand of J&S Kennels in Oklahoma and Tom Ness of Oahe Kennels in North Dakota. Hannah uses a variety of training methods including clicker training and e-collar training and focuses on maintaining enthusiasm under the required pressure to reach goals. “Train the dog in front of you” is Hannah’s philosophy and she strives to meet each individual dog where they are. She believes there is no “one size fits all” and each dog requires individualized training at their own pace. Hannah treats all client dogs as if they’re her own, prioritizing comfort and building a partnership.
