Cal Corona

My name is Cal and I am a rewards-based trainer! I help you develop a powerful relationship between you and your dog that is built on a foundation of trust, respect, and mutual enjoyment of life. Rather than "solving" problem behaviors by brute force, I prefer to make small changes that reduce conflict and prevent you from butting heads in the first place. 

​

I utilize rewards-based training and enjoy working most with high-drive, high-energy, and high-intensity dogs. I am specialized in working with service dogs, wild child house pets, wannabe working dogs, actual working dogs, and everything in between.

​

I began training dogs as a kid - encouraging my family's very tolerant Lab to navigate a makeshift agility course. But the real training began when I was a teenager and I was diagnosed with a debilitating condition that necessitated the use of a service dog. Now, 10 years and two service dogs later, I am helping others make the same journey I did.

​

Despite my years of experience training dogs, I am still on my own learning journey! I am constantly reading books on behavior and animal psychology, attending workshops and seminars, taking continuing education courses, and perfecting my training and handling skills through dog sports.
