Sabrina has trained dogs for over a decade. She was raised in a household with working police canines and learned early on how to handle big dogs with strong drives with confidence. At the age of 12 she helped her first client; an adult male Rottweiler with resource guarding and aggression issues. In 2015, she was offered a job as a dog trainer using the positive reinforcement method.

She trained many dogs using this method but could not achieve the results she wanted without using other means to train. In 2016 she was offered a position as a trainer working for Wilhelm K9 Services. She was finally able to help the clients she was forced to turn away previously, and over a course of a few years helped hundreds of dogs overcome fear, aggression, and numerous behavioral issues. 

​

Sabrina is also a very gifted police dog trainer, and horse enthusiast. Her personal dogs do scent work, detection, as well as apprehension and personal protection. She has helped rehabilitate hundreds of dogs with behavior issues and is trusted to take on some of the most difficult aggression and anxiety cases.
