Hi, I’m Ettel
As a certified dog behavior consultant, I started Poodles to Pit Bulls Dog Training to help dogs and their people truly understand each other. Our fear-free, judgment-free methods create a comfortable and supportive environment for both you and your dog while you learn new skills to navigate behavioral challenges.
We blend Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA), fear-free techniques, and Karen Pryor clicker training to create a program that fits your dog, your goals, and your lifestyle.
What Our Clients Say…
“Without Ettel, I don't know if I would still have my sanity and if Rally would still be here today. Her quiet confidence immediately drew Rally to her in an agility class nearly four years ago. Since then, her calm, positive approach to helping my very sound-sensitive, sometimes fear-aggressive whippet-lab mix cope with the terrors of NYC has given me hope and brought me closer to my pup.”
—— Sophia & Rallpup, Manhattan
