Encinitas Trainer, Danielle Severson
Danielle first started her work with dog training as a young teenager with her own dogs teaching them basic obedience and agility as a way for them to receive a happy healthy outlet. She graduated from Oregon State University with a degree in Animal Science and Agricultural Science to further enhance her career as well as the ability to provide knowledge and feedback when training. Danielle has experience working with a wide range of animals, having done assisted training at the Dallas Zoo. Soon after she began working with the company Joel Slaven Professional Animals putting on performances for big audiences. There she trained rescued dogs and cats with various personalities and behavior. She would work with them on their basic obedience so they could be adopted to good homes. Danielle’s experience is unique and throughout the years she has learned to enjoy all different types of training with a variety of animals. Danielle is a Certified AKC Canine Good Citizen Evaluator and would love to work with your pet and help them become a Canine Good Citizen too!
