My first day home from the hospital, I was greeted by Si-Beau, a fawn Shar Pei who loved to cuddle and followed me everywhere as I took my first steps. Si-Beau was by my side from my first steps to my first day of school. My family and I lost Si-Beau in April of 1997 which, as you know, is one of the hardest parts of owning a dog.    One of my very favorite childhood memories was on Christmas Day in 1997. My dad arrived with a “box of clothes to donate.” As he walked up the driveway, my older sister started squealing with happiness as a small Bullmastiff puppy popped his head out from under an old t-shirt. That puppy, turned into a 140 pound hunk of a dog named Oscar, who spent 10 years practicing soccer with me, stole my heart, and solidified my passion for working with dogs. He was one of my very best friends. ​ In high school, I walked rescue dogs for a local rescue organization, as well as regularly visited the shelter pups and brought them tasty treats. I decided to pursue my Bachelor’s degree at the University of British Columbia in Vancouver Canada. Growing up in Southern California, adjusting to the rainy, grey weather in Vancouver was not easy for me one bit. I realized I needed to make some type of change to help me get use to the rainy weather, so I began fostering for HugABull a rescue group, which specializes in rescuing Bully breeds – mostly American Pit Bull Terriers. During the three years that I fostered these sweet pitties, over a dozen dogs found a warm place to rest their head in my home until they found forever families. As you can see from my brief history, I have lived with and loved all different types of dogs.   After graduating from college, I decided to move back to sunny California and followed my longtime passion and founded A Bark Idea. I am CCPDT and ABC certified dog trainer. Being certified is important to me, so I am able to provide the best education to dog owners, and help train puppies and dogs to help them be the best pups they can be! I am so proud of this safe, positive and happy home away from home I have created for dogs."Ask Our Current Pup Parents!! Five stars does not adequately communicate how special A Bark Idea is! We have been taking our giant breed, nine-month old, 100 lb. Leonberger puppy, Oso, here since he was three months old.   It was so important to us that we find a place that would teach him not only the best manners, but love him as much as we do. Cami, Justin, Kelsey, Alyssa and the gang are truly our extended family. They care for Oso and all the boo's like they are their own fur babies.   From boarding to bath time and all the puppy school training - we would be lost without them. We adore that every day Oso is with them - we get photo updates on how the day is going - and video examples on how to reinforce the training that they worked on at home.   As a big dog family it was so important to us that Oso learn not only socialization skills with other dogs (especially smaller breeds - which is basically all of them :) - but also customized training. A Bark Idea's positive reinforcement approach to training ensures that trust is established early on in addition to the creation of a safe space.   And bonus points that Oso comes home tired and ready for snoozles - which is huge during the puppy phase where the "witching hour" is real :)   We heart A Bark Idea!

Private Lessons are offered in two 5-session programs—one focused on general behavior for dogs of any age, breed, or background, and one designed specifically for puppies, ideally started before bringing your new dog home. Both include lifetime support after the sessions end. Virtual Training is also available for those who prefer remote guidance. Pricing for all three programs isn't currently published, so you'll need to contact the trainer directly for rates and availability.

How many private sessions will you need?

Most pet goals take a short package rather than a single lesson: puppy foundations often need 4–6 sessions, leash manners 3–8, and aggression or anxiety work longer under a behavior plan. Ask for a written session estimate tied to your goal, not an open-ended retainer.

When are private lessons better than group classes?

Choose private lessons when your dog cannot focus around other dogs, you need custom homework for your home, or you are working through reactivity. Group classes are better for socialization and affordable practice once your dog can learn in a busy room.
