About
When working with pet parents to improve their relationship with their pets, my background and expertise in animal behavior is critical. With a bachelor's degree in animal science and psychology, over seven years of experience training animals at zoos, shelters, and daycare centers, as well as working in the veterinary and pet insurance industry, I possess comprehensive knowledge and practical experience beyond basic dog training techniques.We utilize both positive reinforcement and leadership-based methods during our training sessions, as we have discovered that this approach is most effective in helping dogs respond to commands in challenging circumstances. As every pet is unique, possessing their own needs and personality traits, we do not rely on standardized training methodologies. Instead, we personalize each lesson plan based on your dog's progress and your objectives.
Our dog training program is intended to be a satisfying and gratifying experience for everyone involved. It offers an opportunity to cultivate an extraordinary relationship with your pet and help them improve their behavior. It has been a privilege for me to assist families in achieving a happier relationship with their pets through training and education. I would be honored to offer my services to you and your pet to facilitate the same outcome.
We offer free assessment consultations and welcome you to peruse our online reviews and photographs on CrackerJack and Google.

Wen Tze is an amazing gift to both myself and my shih-poo puppy, Nugget. Her patience, kindness, and care are truly unmatched, and she was always quick to respond whenever I had questions or updates in between our sessions. She provided invaluable assistance with potty training, teething, and separation anxiety, as well as teaching Nugget basic commands like sit, stay, and come. Her knowledge and advice on all things puppy-related were incredibly helpful. Spending time with Wen Tze is an investment that you won't regret, and the benefits are priceless. I am so grateful for everything she has done for Nugget and me. Thank you, Wen Tze!

Working with Wen was an amazing experience! In a short span of time, our furry friend ceased barking and lunging at fellow canines whilst on strolls. To top it off, we even got an opportunity to train our furry pal with fresh techniques in our final session. I strongly suggest working with Wen!

Working with Wen was an incredible experience for both our family and our big, sweet, but anxious and reactive two-year-old dog. From the start, she was able to handle our furry friend and provided us with a wealth of tools and techniques to give us the confidence needed in working with him. Wen was patient and thorough, taking the time to answer all our questions during each session. We highly recommend her!

Wen is incredibly pleasant and exceptionally well-informed. After attending 4 puppy training sessions with Wen, our puppy has mastered important commands such as sit, stay, come, and walking with us. An absolute recommendation!

Upon arriving, my 1.5-year-old foster basset/pit mix displayed clear signs of dog reactivity. In dire need of assistance, I reached out for help. Luckily, Wen answered the call on the same day and offered to begin our first training session in just three days. During our sessions, we worked on improving Ollie's walking and response to commands such as "heel," "stay," and "sit." Furthermore, Wen allowed Ollie to train under her guidance while in the presence of her own dogs. Despite Ollie's reactivity still requiring further work, Wen provided invaluable assistance by helping us determine the ideal home placement for Ollie. She was incredibly kind and loving towards Ollie and taught me the importance of being direct and recognizing optimal moments for corrective actions. From the start, Ollie immediately trusted Wen, and we couldn't be more grateful for all of her support. Thanks to Wen's help, my confidence has grown, and Ollie now exhibits more and more signs of trusting me each day.
