Amber Buhler, ABCDT, is the Founder, Owner and Certified Dog Trainer at Loyal Paws Dog Training. I founded Loyal Paws to help owners create positive relationships with their furry companions. So many frustrations owners have with their dogs is due to miscommunication between owner and dog. Dogs and humans are made to be together, however, I am here to help bridge that gap of communication and create a relationship built on loyalty and trust. I want you and your dog to live in harmony together, and be able to communicate effectively.
