Lead them with Love

Emily has been working in the animal care field for the past 18 years. Her knowledge of animal behavior and dedication to animal welfare have given her a strong foundation as a dog trainer. Emily’s experience with shelter dogs, clients' dogs and the 200+ dogs per year rescued through Live Love Animal Rescue- not to mention her own pack- give her a wide range of situational experience and the insight to correct and heal any behavior. Emily knows that to train dogs you must first earn their respect and partner with them as the leader of a balanced pack. She will help you understand how to connect with your dogs on a deeper level and lead them to make choices that are balanced and safe.

Lisa has been working with dogs for the past 8 years, and professionally for the past 5 years. She has fostered, adopted, and/or trained many of the dogs that have been a part of Live Love Animal Rescue! Lisa graduated CSULB in 2011 with a degree in Education and loves to bring her teaching expertise to the table when working with the human side of the dog-human relationship. She has studied under renowned trainers Cheri Lucas and Brian Agnew to help develop and hone her dog training skills. As a Great Dane owner, she has a soft spot for big dogs but also loves helping small dog owners learn how to transform their little one's behavior

Live Love Dog Training is a part of the Live Love Animal Services umbrella and is run by our founder Emily Peters and Lisa Darcy. Lisa and Emily began formally learning dog training to benefit the dogs and puppies that we rescue, and now we are ready to share our knowledge with all of you! Our training approach is balanced and puts the emphasis on building a sustainable, respectful relationship with your dog. Energy healing is another valuable training approach we utilize when appropriate and needed. Emily and Lisa bring 5+ years of experience in dog training, and many more years of experience in general dog care and wellness. We are grateful for the opportunity to help our network of pet parents lead happier, healthier lives together with their dogs!
