Our Holistic Approach to Dog Training
At the heart of the Delilah Method is the belief that dogs thrive when we address the whole dog — mind, body, and environment. Training is never just about stopping a behavior; it’s about uncovering the root cause, supporting your dog’s emotional and physical health, and creating a relationship built on trust and understanding.
Our holistic method blends:
Behavioral Science — using modern, humane, and evidence-based training techniques.
Nutrition & Wellness — ensuring your dog’s body and mind are supported from the inside out.
Handler Education — empowering guardians with the skills and confidence to be their dog’s guide.
Connection & Trust — focusing on communication, empathy, and teamwork over control.
By combining these elements, we don’t just teach commands — we create lasting harmony, confidence, and peace between you and your dog.
About Me
Hi, I’m Kassandra. My approach to dog training is inspired by my beloved Delilah, a senior Great Pyrenees with amber eyes, a goofy smile of wonky teeth, and a gentle, wise soul. She taught me that every dog has a story, every quirk is meaningful, and patience, love, and understanding are the keys to true connection.
Through years of hands-on experience at the Humane Society, personal work with Delilah, and continuing education through online courses, I help dogs and their humans build confidence, reduce stress, and strengthen the bond they share. I specialize in guiding puppies toward positive behaviors, helping adult dogs navigate reactivity by identifying their unique triggers and uncovering unintentional habits that may reinforce unwanted behavior, and coaching handlers to communicate with calm, clear, and compassionate energy.
