I'M GLAD YOU'RE HERE
One of the best things about being a professional dog trainer is getting to know other amazing dog parents on a deeper level. Having a connection and trust is first and foremost when hiring a professional to help you and your pup. So let me share a little about myself.
HI, I'M RUTH
I knew from a young age that I had a love for dogs but it wasn’t until after seeing the need for dog trainers as a veterinarian assistant. I decided to devote myself to helping dog owners form a bond and communication with their pups and turn my passion into my life’s work.
MY STORY
I have worked my ass off to create my brand and name and to help my clients and doggos. I am very passionate about dogs and behavior. I have grown up with dogs, worked as a vet assistant for years, and now have currently been training dogs for 6+ years.
I’m not your typical trainer, I enjoy working with all dogs big and small, psycho and non-psycho dogs. I cuss like a sailor and wear RBF on my face most days but I truly have a heart of gold for teaching dogs and their owners. I’m passionate about living your best life with your dog. Perfect dogs aren’t born they are created by our guidance and expectations.
WHY DO I TEACH?
I established A-Z DOGS to help teach you and your dog to live the best stress-free life. This is done through mutual communication and trusting your dog.
We see you busting your ass day in and day out, the dog owners out there juggling their businesses, career, and family.
You are the dog owner who fantasizes about taking your dog to an event, hiking, and other adventures. Without being tripped, bitten, embarrassed, and micro-managing a pterodactyl out in public.
Then please reach out to us sooner than later, and save your stress for the environment.

MY VALUES
Be unapologetically you.
There is no such thing as a perfect dog owner but there are lots of opinions on how to raise your pup.
We are a small business and really love working with all dogs and breeds and supporting BIPOC & LGBQT communities and the environment.

I have tried to stay quiet on my platform, but there is no room for ignorance when it comes to our pets' health.
Our responsibility as dog parents is to question everything we expose our dog to, inside and out.
Whether it is a Pet Professional, Veterinarian, or Friend, it's our job to question everything. This means doing your research on both sides and looking at experts in the field and their agenda. Then formulate your own opinion and conclusion.
