My name is Sabine Born, and I am happy to help you turn your dog into the well behaved family member that you have always dreamt ofI am a dog loving, fun and energetic CCPDT-KA and FearFree certified professional dog trainer and photographer ( visit: Sabine Oexmann Photography) Born and raised in Germany. I have had a passion for animals ever since I was a little kid.

Wholehearted Animal Lover since I was a child

In 2004 I discovered my second passion for the beautiful nature of the Western US. Years later I came over for graduate school. As a result, I now have a Masters degree in Public Relations and a husband who shares my love for animals and traveling.

 

Over the years, I became a Certified Dog Trainer, a fFarFree certified professional a Canine Good Citizen Evaluator and a member and Tester/Observer for the Alliance of Therapy Dogs.

I truly enjoy teaching dogs and their owners how to improve communication and grow their relationship in the process. Research has shown time and time again, that not only do reward-based dog training methods contribute to a better relationship between dog and handler and better overall dog welfare. These dog training methods are also more effective for the successful long-term treatment of every kind of behavior issue (read more here).

Efficient and positive dog training for you and your pet

My goal is to provide a fun and efficient training experience that both will enjoy, the dogs and the handlers.

My dogs KT and Stevie are my best friends. They show me every day, how much they enjoy reward based training.

 

Memberships in dog training industry organizations

I am a member of the Pet Professional Guild who adhere to a strict code of conduct. Pet Professional Guild members understand Force-Free to mean that:

No shock, No prong, No choke and No Pain, No fear, No Force are ever employed in the training, behavior modification, care, or management of any pet.

I am a FearFree certified professional and a practicing member of the Alliance of Therapy Dogs (ATD) and have made it my mission to never stop learning. I stay updated on modern training philosophies to improve my knowledge and ability to help my clients. and Whenever possible, I also attend industry conferences like the APDT annual conference in 2023 and virtual training that is offered within the science based modern dog training industry.

 

Specializing fearful dogs and dog reactivity

Since I am especially interested in helping reactive and anxious dogs with tendency for aggression, I attended the Aggression in Dogs conference and completed the Master Course Aggression in Dogs held by Michael Shikashio. He is an internationally sought after keynote speaker and presenter on the topic of dog aggression at numerous events, conferences, and universities worldwide.
