About the Trainer
Doggie Tech is a dog training business led by Shannon, a trainer with over 40 years of experience specializing in family and companion pet training. Shannon offers personalized, in-home private training sessions tailored to each dog’s behavior, the owner’s lifestyle, and the family’s needs. She focuses on humane, proven methods that avoid common mistakes like using choke chains or physical corrections for jumping, emphasizing understanding canine motivation and building trust. Her approach is especially effective for dogs with fear, aggression, or past trauma, including rescue and service dogs. She provides immediate, downloadable training resources through her “CLIPS WITH TIPS” section and offers lifetime support to clients—meaning clients can call her for help at any time without additional charges. Shannon trains dogs of all ages and types, including stubborn breeds like Basenjis, Akita mixes, Dobermans, and Pitbulls, and has successfully helped clients with issues ranging from potty training and leash pulling to separation anxiety and reactivity.
In addition to private training, Shannon provides video-based training content and products for self-guided learning. She does not offer group classes, boarding, grooming, or daycare services. Her training is available by appointment only, with no texting option—clients must call to schedule.
Shannon is highly recommended by clients, veterinarians, and long-term clients who have trained multiple dogs with her over the years. She is known for her compassionate, patient, and individualized approach that transforms both dog and handler behavior.
