About Diane's Training:

Diane teaches humans dog psychology and ways to deal with behavior issues and challenges, nutrition, and everyday life with your dog based on understanding what the dog species need to exist in OUR environment and be fulfilled and content, able to achieve their full potential of what God and Nature intended for them. The biggest crime we humans force on dogs is trying to humanize them. In order to achieve balance and harmony with dogs and all other species of animals, (don’t forget we are animals too) is to fulfill their needs along with ours so we can co-exist peacefully.

It takes practice to gain mastery over any skill whether it be carpentry, architecture, dance, painting, singing, learning to play an instrument, learning to drive a car, learning to ride a horse or train your dog, and through those skills we then have the tools and knowledge to help others, to connect to others.  Understanding another species comes through practice, patience and self awareness. Dedicated practice develops; will, discipline, commitment, respect and balance for everyone.  Once we have 100% mastery over our new skills with our dogs as pack leaders, so then will our dogs be 100% in their new found place in our  pack as a calm submissive member. In nature if there is no pack leader to provide balance, a dog will feel the need to fill that role. Living with humans who don't fill that role, the dog will react and feel that same need with their human family. That is hard wired into their DNA. When humans don't understand dog psychology, they view their dogs efforts to restore balance as bad behaviors. It has to be fair for both species. If you want a well-behaved, obedient dog, you must fulfill that dog's needs before asking him to fulfill your own.  

Diane teaches owners to use their body energy and body language to communicate with their dogs and other animals instead of using "Harsh Tools" to force a wanted behavior. Many times when "Training Tools" are used, especially the wrong way, the dog will become distrustful and behavioral issues and challenges will arise or become worse from the emotional stress and misunderstanding that is forced upon the dog. These harsh techniques and training tools which are not normal for dogs in their natural way of being, where developed and used for a quick and easy solution so the human is not required to develop a lifelong commitment of self discipline to benefit the dog and themselves. When an owner learns to become a consistent pack leader, which is so extremely important for their dog(s), their confidence increases and so does the dogs.

If we study the signals dogs use with each other and use them ourselves, we increase our ability to communicate with our dogs. Communicating rules, boundaries, limitations, love and respect with behavioral techniques that mimic as close as possible what dogs do with each other and how they learn in nature, strengthens the bond and understanding between humans and dogs.

Cesar Millan says “Don’t confuse discipline with punishment. I’ve said before that discipline is often confused with punishment, but I’d rather think of it as commitment. Discipline makes you a better person, makes you fit, makes you healthy, and helps you have a healthy relationship because you are disciplined to do what is best for the relationship. To me, discipline is something that helps me to stay on target, to reach my goals and dreams. It allows me to stay balanced and to be a respectful human being, someone who wants the best for himself and for everything around him- from trees to animals to human beings. Mother Nature responds to discipline. Rules, boundaries and limitations exist in every species on the planet. Wolves are disciplined not only when they hunt but also when they travel, when they play, and when they eat. Nature doesn’t view discipline as a negative thing. Discipline is survival, and without it, you are likely to become a source of negative energy. “

When we learn to be balanced with a centered heart, we are able to become more intuitively aware of what other species need from us so we can all live together in peace, harmony, love and respect for one another. Respectful Inter-species relationships are not just based on what humans want and need from other species. It is based on providing for all others that share this planet with us, so they too can survive, thrive and also reach their full potential as the species they are, not as humans. We can achieve this by seeing the world through the eyes of another species and their perspective of life. We then start to understand what it is they need to exist in our environment, remembering that it is the human species that took them from their environment to live with people.

The animals are reading our energy every moment and know how we feel and if there are imbalances within us. Once we learn to watch and listen to the animals, they will show us through their reactions and responses to us, what we need to work on for ourselves. Once we reconnect to nature, we regain our balance and remember how to use our natural senses and instincts of intuition, reading and sending energy to and from every living being on the planet. This is the animal’s very special gift to us.

Many times when there is a puzzling situation that an owner cannot figure out, it sometimes takes another person’s set of eyes to help resolve the issues between species with their suggestions of a different approach and techniques.

Diane’s Unique Gifts

Diane has a unique ability to assess a situation and give guidance and suggestions on how to regain balance in each individual restoring harmony, love, peace and respect. She pulls from not just one learned training method & its techniques, but from many that she has learned over the years, which she uses and incorporates into her own way of rehabilitation, training and human education.

Diane believes that a person can never stop learning and adding to their educational repertoire of ways to address each unique individual in a species to help them reach their full potential and well-being. Part of customizing a program is having a knowledge and experience data base of several different methods and techniques to pull from. When the correct one is found, balancing the issues and challenges will flow effortlessly between each other to bring back harmony, respect and love.  

“Allow me to help you achieve balance between both you and your dog(s) so you can both strive to be the best and do what is best for each other when the gap of inter-species communication is bridged. When balance is achieved behavioral issues and challenges of all kinds can be resolved. "

In Home Training:
Diane is available for in home training for all ages and breeds, phone and Skype consultation sessions and group classes.

"I do most of my work at a clients home where the dog(s) is in their own environment and where most clients want and need help. We can also go to other area's, which usually always happens during a home session. Getting control at home first, allows you to take that control anywhere you and your dog go. Through educating owners of what dogs need living in a human environment, helps dogs achieve and restore balance in their lives so they can reach their full potential, allowing a relationship with their owners that is based on respect and love.

"I very much look forward to helping you restore balance between you and your dog.
Thank-you for loving the animals.
Diane Ellis.”
