My goal is to give you tools and skills to connect with your dog on a deeper level, meet their needs and enrich both of your lives.
Kenshō (見性) is a Japanese term from Zen Buddhism. Ken means "seeing", shō means "nature, essence". It is usually translated as "seeing one's (true) nature", that is, the Buddha-nature or nature of mind. For me, kenshok9 means seeing the true nature of each individual canine companion.

Rewards-based Training
Training that emphasizes positive reinforcement has an evidence base, is effective, kind, compassionate, dog-friendly and owner-friendly. Training focused on rewarding wanted behaviors helps dogs build confidence, allows for fun, and strengthens the human-animal bond and relationship.
Certified BAT Instructor
Behavior Adjustment Training (BAT) "helps animals gain confidence and social skills. BAT is a natural method that creates an emotionally safe interaction with minimal intrusion. BAT is especially useful when the “triggers” for frustration, aggression, or fear are living beings, for example when dogs bark at or bite other dogs or people."
-Grisha Stewart
Dog Sports Experience
I came to the world of dog training via the world of dog sports. Our dog LuLu, a six year old Berger Picard, trains and competes in various dog sports. Helping a dog excel in dog sports has made me a creative thinker, problem-solver and attuned listener.
