At Hufflepup Dog Training, owner and trainer Jennifer Pepper helps dog owners build trust-based relationships with their pets using science-backed positive reinforcement methods. Jennifer has over 10 years of experience training a variety of animals, including dolphins, rats, and difficult dogs, and applies that expertise to help dogs of all ages and temperaments learn without fear or punishment.
