About the Trainer


I developed a love for animals from a very young age.  I have never NOT had a dog by my side from day one.  As I grew, memorizing the encyclopedia of dogs was only one of my goals as I dove into the world of animal behavior and how it pertained to training methods.  My approach to training includes a platform of pack mentality combined with clicker and positive reward training that I have developed through research, class and personal experience.  I volunteer for local rescue groups offering training to these shelters and rescues giving more opportunities for these canines to find their "Furever Home."  I believe that understanding your dog's behavior is the key to successfully bridge the communication gap between you and your pet.  I am full member of the Association of Pet Dog Trainers (member #74832)















                                                                                                                                      
                                                 

Dari Ferguson, Founder/Trainer























My approach to each case is different for each dog  and each family is different. Each program will be designed to specifically meet each family's goals.  It's not what you hope you will achieve it's what you EXPECT to achieve.  Examples of my programs are:

 

  • Basic Obedience Training
  • Behavior Modification
  • Behavior Management
  • Aggression Control and Management
  • Bad Habits (ie. Chewing, Jumping)










When not training, Dari volunteers and fosters with the Virginia German Shepherd Rescue in Sterling, VA and sings lead in a cover Funk/Rock band (www.themonsterband.com) while developing her own original project.
