Welcome to Holly’s Den, where dog training and free-lance writing are dual pursuits in my life and work. For me, Holly's Den is not just a business name—it also connotes a physical place and a mind-set of peace and comfort from which to write, teach, train, learn, mentor and welcome others to come in and share all this.
Dog training services include affordable private lessons in puppy headstart/basic obedience training, and behavior counseling using gentle dog-friendly methods based on positive reinforcement.

Holly’s Den is the namesake of a German Shepherd Dog, Ritarra's Holly Berry, the first dog I ever trained in competition obedience. It was Holly, my fur girl and working partner, who taught me to care more deeply for all dogs and living creatures. Although Holly will always have a bit of the wild thing in her nature, with a bow to domesticity, her real-life den is a small cozy study with a fireplace for cold days and a row of windows shaded by flowering Oleanders in the spring and summer.
Regardless of size, dogs are social pack animals genetically programmed to need companionship. Holly & Monty's good house manners allow them to live inside as part of the family. In Holly’s Den, humans and dogs happily co-exist together as a mostly peaceful pack. (You can meet all of us, including Monty, our adopted rescue Shepherd, on the "Meet Our Pack" page).
The goal of dog training offered
through Holly’s Den is to help others form their own peaceful packs.
Dog training is about much more than teaching dogs to sit, stay
and come—the real essence of training is teaching humans to understand the
ways of dogs, and to deepen the bond they share with their canine companions, so
that by living together their lives can be mutually enriched.
