About ME, AmeLia

I've been inspired to teach and train by my lifelong love for dogs, and fascination with human and animal behavior.

I earned my stripes at the Dog Training Internship Academy of San Francisco as a certified positive reinforcement trainer and behavioral consultant. After certification, I completed San Francisco SPCA's Dog Training Internship Program and Public Teaching Internship and began teaching classes with the SF SPCA and day training with SF Puppy Prep, eventually transitioned to their outdoor adolescent training program. After working with countless dogs and their people I realized that my passion lies in teaching both, as a team. These days I work one on one with clients, in private training sessions, and teach a variety of classes for SF Puppy Prep as well as volunteering at the SF SPCA. When I’m not training I’m usually spending time with my big floofy German Shephard mix, Foxy!
