Pet Training and Behavior Consulting

Pet Training
Work towards workable behaviors with you and your companion without techniques utilizing force or fear.
I do accept aggressive/reactive dogs for private classes.
Each session would run about an hour. We work with the pups and the client to get a behavior plan going. Then we meet every week or two, make sure things are going well, and adjust or advance as appropriate.
​
Clients can start with smaller session packages and upgrade as we go.

Dog Walking/Watching
Can't get home in the middle of the day? The pup needs some time outside?
We have a variety of options. We can simply watch and entertain your dogs, train your dogs while we watch them. Walk your dogs or even run your dogs.
​
Let us care for your pets and you can focus on your job or your vacation.
My Services

My Story
I utilize a variety of training techniques with a focus on modern operant conditioning emphasizing positive reinforcement and animal choice.
​
My animal training journey began in 1992 with my loving 8-year-old Doberman mix. I trained her for state and local obedience competitions. Eventually I acquired my B.S. degree in Animal Ecology with a minor in Biology at Iowa State University. From there I went into the zoo field where I eventually became a curator.
In 2010 I began teaching group classes for basic dog obedience part time with the Garden City Recreation Commission and Garden City Veterinary Clinic.
In 2018 I left the zoo field to start Buchman Bestial Behaviors to help our community understand their furrier family members. Since the switch I have been happy to help more and more families in SWKS and surrounding states with fear free/pain free methods. From basic obedience, puppy training, to reactive animals that need a gentler touch.
