Meet The Team

Hello! My name is Eden Victoria and I was born and raised on the West Coast of California. I started my journey working with dogs in Santa Ynez, CA at a boarding facility and knew I wanted to dive into the world of training as I started shadowing my colleagues. I then had the opportunity to work with one of my favorite trainers and good friend Lucy Esparza (Owner of Oak Valley Dogs) at Old Yeller Ranch where I learned to work with dogs pulled from the E-list. There is where I fell deeply in love with balanced dog training and the therapy that goes with helping, understanding and being around these misunderstood dogs. I also had the opportunity to work at K-nine Solutions in Santa Barbara working with puppies to behavioral cases. When I moved to Arizona I knew I was ready to start my own small business doing board and trains as well as daycare and regular boarding. I hope to continue expanding my business and creating a place where we can all enjoy, raise and help our beautiful 4 legged friends.

I specialize in behavioral cases, public obedience, off-leash training,  puppy training and basic obedience.

Heike comes to us originally from Germany where she developed her passion being raised with German Shepherds and horses. She resided in Tennessee where she founded a small rescue organization dedicated to aiding in the rescue of Pit Bulls from dog-fighting rings. She has a background working with Sports Dogs and has hands on experience working with K9 Police Units in Germany as well as the US. Currently, Heike lives in Prescott, Arizona where she is employed as a dog trainer specializing in Board & Trains and oversees our Prescott-located consultations. We are delighted to have Heike on our team and are grateful for her extensive experience in working with Dogs of all breeds, sizes and backgrounds.

I have surrounded myself with dogs since I was young, finding ways to interact with, care for and train them. I have had the opportunity to shadow and learn from many talented trainers and methodologies across different states. I have worked with hundreds of dogs and focus on the psychology, communication, and relationships between animal and owner, understanding the tools used are just a means to getting there. The joy of building confidence in dogs and owners and helping them achieve a peaceful life together is the greatest reward I find in my work.
​
I specialize in anxiety cases, basic obedience, and reactivity, and am continuing to expand my craft every day through research and classes from local experts. I own two pitbulls, Mayzie Gray and Batman, who are the loves of my life. I have worked with all kinds of dogs from small poodles to mastiffs. I would be delighted to work with your dog, too!

Karli's lifelong passion for dogs has led her to work with numerous canine clients, refining her skills in behavior modification and canine communication. Her experience with diverse breeds and temperaments has equipped her to address various training needs. Karli's philosophy emphasizes the importance of living in the moment and fostering cohesive relationships between dogs and their owners. She specializes in teaching clients how to dance with their dogs, promoting a deeper understanding and connection.

A little about me, I grew up in Montana on a working ranch. I focus on puppy training, socializing, desensitizing, obedience, therapy work, and service work. I started professionally training dogs about 11 years ago. I train full-time and then run a small golden retriever breeding company. 
Our breeding company is extremely unique because we are the only program that starts therapy work with 8-week-old puppies. We also provide 14-week-old trained golden retriever puppies. Each family is giving access to our YouTube training series. We donate several goldens each year for service programs. Our dogs are all health tested and have the best personalities. So occasionally I will have some super cute tiny potatoes running around. 
I would love to help anyway I can.
