Clients send up to ten minutes of video of the issue in advance, then meet Jess for a one hour live virtual session where she troubleshoots the problem and, when helpful, uses her own dogs to demonstrate concepts. Afterward she sends a written follow up covering what was discussed, often with video examples to practice from.

Testimonials

Jess is not only scholastically educated, vast and varied in her experience across the spectrum of all things dog, but she is also extremely in touch and intuitive. She truly champions the ideals of living our best, living fully in the here and now, making improvements, and always striving for the greatest version of our dogs and ourselves.
– Noelle

When I got my first Border Collie, I contacted Jess. She taught me the importance of teaching self-control to puppies right from the beginning. I still use what I have learned from Jess everyday. I highly recommend Jess as a dog trainer.

About the Trainer

Cookie That is run by Jess Williams, a Lowell, Massachusetts trainer who works with dog sport handlers whose dogs either kick into overdrive or shut down under pressure. She works with competitors in agility, disc, protection sports, herding, and scentwork who need help with arousal, anxiety, and focus so training and competing feel fun again instead of stressful.

Consults are done virtually. Clients send Jess up to ten minutes of video showing the issue ahead of time, then join a one hour live online session where she digs into the problem and starts troubleshooting right away, sometimes using her own dogs to demonstrate concepts. After the call she sends a detailed written follow up, often with video examples to practice from.

Jess has been a full-time dog trainer since 2009 and has been immersed in dog sports for over 30 years. She was the youngest person to qualify for the world championships in canine frisbee in 2002 and earned her first AKC agility MACH with her childhood dog Zoe. She has taught classes and led seminars in dogs states and worked with some of the toughest behaviorally challenged dogs in the sport dog world.

Handlers looking for help with overarousal, reactivity, anxiety, or building drive and excitement in a dog that needs an extra push can book a Cookie That consult and work through it with someone who has spent decades in the sport dog community.
