HOLISTIC DOG TRAINING

Meet Yvan Granados and Kimberlee Ybarra, the visionaries behind our success.

Yvan holds a distinguished degree in Veterinary Medicine with a specialized focus in ethology (the scientific study of animal behavior) from UNAM, one of the premier research universities located in Mexico City. Additionally, UNAM’s affiliation with the AVMA speaks to the high caliber of education and training he has received.

Kimberlee brings a fresh, dynamic perspective to dog training. Having traveled across the United States, she has meticulously studied and adopted the finest techniques from esteemed peers. Kimberlee's devotion to understanding the intricacies of dog behavior and training techniques has culminated in five years of professional dog training, shaping countless success stories along the way.

With over a quarter of a century in the field, we've had the privilege of training thousands of dogs across the globe. Our journey through the years has not only enriched our experience but also fortified our belief in adopting progressive and gentle training methodologies.

Our approach to training is holistic and groundbreaking. Beyond just teaching commands, we tailor our methods to harmonize with your unique lifestyle, ensuring a symbiotic relationship between you and your furry companion. Central to our teaching methods are revolutionary techniques like free shaping and the use of play prior to introducing the use of training tools. These techniques are designed to facilitate learning without inducing suppression, keeping your dog happy and their emotional well-being at the forefront.

We're not just trainers; we're continual learners and competitors! Our methods have been put through rigorous trials as we've titled dogs in various dog sports, ranging from obedience and agility to protection.

Moreover, Yvan’s credentials stand testament to our commitment to excellence. As a twice-certified G.T.R. Level 3 Decoy in French Ring, his expertise is recognized and celebrated internationally. This was further evidenced when he was handpicked as a juror for the 2023 French Ring Selectifs in France.

Join us in our endeavor to craft a training system that prioritizes understanding, play, and the essence of true companionship that is perfect for your family and your dog!
