Professional Dog Trainer with a Deep Love for Canines
Meet Gloria Post
Professional Dog Trainer Specializing In Dog Obedience Training
Passionate about dogs from an early age, I’ve been fortunate enough to share my life with various breeds throughout my adulthood. My fascination with professional dog training truly blossomed when I became the proud owner of Amber, a brilliant Australian Shepherd.
It wasn’t long before I began leading training sessions myself, creating structured courses and specialized dog training classes centered entirely on proven positive reinforcement dog training techniques. By using these friendly, reward-based methods, I help owners achieve swift, reliable results while building a deep, motivating bond with their dogs. There is nothing more rewarding than seeing pets across Paradise, Chico, Oroville, and the surrounding areas become genuinely enthusiastic about working and engaging with their families.
Today, my focus remains on continuously enhancing my understanding of canine behavior and thought processes. This ongoing education enables me to offer customized dog obedience training curricula, perfectly tailored to address the distinct needs and learning style of every individual dog I work with.
