About the trainer
Training Philosophy
Alejandra’s philosophy is rooted in positive reinforcement and a commitment to force-free methods. She believes training should always be fun, engaging, and stress-free, creating an environment where dogs can learn effectively while building confidence and strengthening their bond with their owners. By focusing on trust and clear communication, Alejandra ensures results that are not only successful in the moment but sustainable for the long term.
Inspiration
For Alejandra, dog training has always been about more than just teaching commands—it’s about understanding canine behavior, building trust, and creating partnerships that last. Her passion for training grew from a love of working dogs and protection sports, where she saw firsthand how structure, patience, and communication could bring out a dog’s full potential. That passion has since evolved into a lifelong career dedicated to helping both pets and working dogs thrive.
Professional Experience
Alejandra brings over 13 years of professional dog training experience, with a broad background spanning basic obedience, advanced behavior modification, competitive obedience, and service/working dog task training. She has worked with countless families as well as handlers of specialized working dogs, tailoring each program to meet the needs of the individual dog and owner. Her expertise in working and protection sports allows her to combine performance-based training with a deep understanding of behavior, creating effective and customized training plans.
Training Focus
Alejandra is especially passionate about working and protection sports, where precision, control, and teamwork are paramount. At the same time, she excels at helping families build reliable foundations with their pets, from puppy basics to addressing more complex behavior challenges. Her versatility allows her to guide dogs and owners through everything from everyday manners to highly specialized training.
