Meet the Trainer

                            

Sarah Owings graduated with distinction from the Karen Pryor Academy in January 2010 and has been a full member of the Association of Pet Dog Trainers since 2009. Committed to providing pet owners with the most current, effective and humane training solutions, she has become an avid student of animal behavior and regularly attends seminars and conferences around the country. She has written articles for Clean Run and Veterinary Technician Magazine, and has produced numerous short videos on Clicker Training. One of her videos, "The Power of Premack: Fence Fighting," won 2nd runner up in the 2011 Canis Film Festival.

 In addition to a lifetime of working and living with a wide variety of animals, Sarah has also had many years of experience as a kindergarten teacher where the joys and challenges of the classroom have fueled a passion for teaching, learning, and human connection as well. She lives in Los Angeles with her wonderfully supportive partner, Fred, and mom, Morgan, two rescue dogs, Zoë and Maya, five house rabbits, four cats, two doves, a tortoise, and an iguana named Spot.
