Meet Your Trainer,
My name is Shannen, owner of Pups on the Coast. My approach combines positive reinforcment and science-based techniques, ensuring every dog (and guardian) feels supported and understood.
My mission is to help you foster a deeper relationship with your dog, and to teach you training methods that guide you forward on your journey towards a happier, more well-rounded life with your best friend.
Let's chat!
Success Stories - Real Results
Ginny & Tucker,
Carlsbad, CA
"Shannen helped my husband and I navigate my 7-month old Golden Retrievers 'teenage' phase. Homework was simple enough and we were able to cover leash walking, counter surfing, and jumping on guests. We also did some sessions at a nearby coffee shop to work on being in pubic. Huge help!"
Jenna & Dante,
La Jolla, CA
"My family unexpectedly welcomed a new rescue puppy into our home 3 months ago. To say Shannen has been a help is an understatement. We know nothing about puppies as we only every had adult dogs before, she was so educated and easy to work with and we we're so happy with how far we've come."
Susanna & Baker,
Encinitas, CA
"We called Shannen after a mishap at the dog park that caused some anxiety and fear with our golden puppy. She was so informative and even brought her dog Chance (who was very good with our puppy) to help re-socialize my dog to one more neutral/ friendly."
Edmund & Ginger
Del Mar, Ca
“Shannen helped my family with our husky puppy Ginger. Very responsive with questions and we actually continued to work with her to help with our older dog's separation anxiety after puppy training felt solid. It's been 2 years now and everyone who comes over always gives us compliments on how relaxed they both are."
Christine & Tron
Encinitas, CA
“Shannen worked closely with me for 6 sessions, and then we moved to Day Training. We were so happy with the results, and she helped us progress our dog Tron to become a 'beach dog' with the type of recall I worked so long for. Will recommend to anyone who listens! Thank you!!"
