This has been a game changer for my fear & frustrated reactive dog Lola and myself. We take part in the online virtual class training which allows us to be in a class in our own home with other reactive dogs and their owners…Lola is now working with me and if you saw the reactivity on the fence inside of our yard, that in 5 classes has been completely changed, she is still anxious and reactive….but she is now in her thinking brain and working on choosing other options besides just reactive barking, jumping at the fence etc…and I am so excited to see where we go from here. I also have learned a variety of skills of how to read Lola and her body language and to know when to step in or redirect her away and give space between her and her triggers that scare her.

I’m Stephanie

Welcome to Stephanie’s Sniffers. I am a certified Nose Work Instructor (CNWI) through the NACSW as well as a certified Dog Behavior Consultant (CBCC-KA) & Trainer (CPDT-KA).

I started my nose work journey in 2010 and was hooked from day one. I have competed with 4 of my own dogs – Logan, Lance, Leena & Benny. Livvy passed her ORT’s at 6 months old but due to some fear and behavioral challenges we are still working towards competition.

I am hoping to share my passion in nose work & behavior with everyone!
