Meet the Trainer
Hello, I’m Patrick, the lead dog trainer at Woodbridge K9 Training. My journey into dog training began with my own challenges in managing my dog’s behavior. Through dedication and learning, I transformed these challenges into a passion for helping others. In 2013, I became certified by the Animal Behavior College and honed my skills at Starmark Academy, specializing in canine behavior. My experience with my dogs, Indy and Sky, has been invaluable in shaping my training philosophy. I focus on balanced methods that build trust and empower dog owners to become confident leaders. Join me in transforming your dog’s behavior and enhancing your bond.
