Thank you for your interest in
Training With Grace. Here's a little about Ana, your
trainer.
Ana
Melara has been working with dogs and their families for over a
decade, originally in NYC and for the past 7 years here in Colorado.
She is a member of the Association of Pet Dog Trainers. She is a
CGC evaluator. She keeps herself current by attending various
workshops, seminars and conferences. Her training techniques are
founded on praise-based methods, and a fundamental belief that, as
their guardians, we have an obligation to 'be good leaders to our
dogs.' Whether she is teaching basic obedience, agility, puppy
socialization, potty training, or addressing a dog's aggression
issues, Ana stresses to all of her human clients the profound
importance that their leadership plays in their dog's training.
Ana also donates her time and services to various rescue
organizations in the area including Colorado
Saint Bernard rescue and Colorado Greyhound
Adoption.
Ana lives in the Denver Metro
Area with her husband, Travis the Paramedic/Fire fighter, Rebeca
her 3-year-old bright eyed daughter, Gracie her 9 1/2-year-old
agility titling whippett/pitbull mix, Argos her 6-year-old blood
donor German shepherd mix, and Meg her 4-year-old black lab
agility superstar. All of her dogs are Delta Society Pet
Partners.
