Shauna Boyd

Dog Training – Draper, Utah 84020

Independent Contractor for Doggy’s Big Day-Salt Lake City, UT

Summary
I have a deep seated love and passion for animals, and Pet Sitting; Dog Walking; Volunteer work with local animal foster care programs; and Dog Behavior Training are just small and simple ways for me to express that love, and fulfill my passion for furry friends. Specialties: ABC Certified Dog Obedience Trainer ; Canine Dimensions Certified Dog Obedience Trainer; Dog Walking; Pet care

Experience
Associate Trainer at Canine Dimensions November 2013 – July 2015 (1 year 9 months) Specialized in behavior modification, problem solving and obedience training. I trained puppies 8 weeks and older, and adult dogs of all ages. I trained dogs in the homes of their owners. I used only humane, natural, dog training methods – no shock collars, no clickers. I went to clients’ homes and worked with their dogs and their families to custom design a dog training or puppy training program based on their dog’s personality, temperament and drive, using the latest scientific dog training protocols. I showed clients how to establish good communication and proper pack structure in the home, and taught all of the basic dog obedience commands (sit, stay, down, come, drop it) plus good leash manners (no more pulling on the leash). It was fast, it was fun, and it really worked!

Monitored information for proper feedings, medications and checkout dates. 4. Followed proper procedures to allow only non-aggressive dogs and dogs current on all required vaccinations into CBW. 5. Insured the proper functioning of all day camp and boarding operations including reservations and nightly close out procedures. 6. Provided quality customer service to insure a friendly, caring environment. 7. Monitored and insured adequate supply levels. 8. Monitored and updated Vaccination Records with each reservation and check-in. 9. Insured forms were filled out correctly with all pertinent information. 10. Insured Quality Customer Service – troubleshooting and problem solving with a customer friendly attitude. 11. Promoted the business by understanding and explaining extensive safety procedures, spacious indoor/outdoor play areas, certified training, etc. Provided customer tours. 12.
