Certifications: Certified Professional Dog Trainer - Knowledge Assessed

Description:

Namita offers virtual consultants worldwide and in person consults in Metro Vancouver, Canada. Her specialty is working with Sensitive Dog struggling with reactivity related to fear and/or frustration.

Originally from urban India, Namita's early experiences involved caring for local free living dogs. She has gained a unique insight into dogs living independent of humans (primarily) and their resilience to the ever changing city life.

Before pivoting to dog training and behaviour as a career, Namita worked with a well established dog daycare for 4 years. This involved working with a variety of dog breeds and temperaments in a challenging environment (no daycare is perfect and dog's often struggle to enjoy them).

As a behaviour consultant, Namita aims to help guardians understand their dogs and work with them to find solutions that meet the dog's motivation / needs while supporting the guardians goals.

Here are some of Namita's other credentials:
* L.E.G.S Family Dog Mediation (FDM)
* The Aggression in Dogs Master Course by Michael Shikashio
* International Association of Animal Behaviour Consultants - Accredited (IAABC - ADT)
* Fear Free Certified Professional
* Certified Trick Dog Instructor (CTDI)
* and many more workshops / seminars towards continuing education

Namita is an advocate for science-backed, humane training methods and shares her expertise on her Instagram page, fostering conversations to reshape perceptions of dogs and promote empathy among guardians.
