Meet Mandy, Trainer

Eugene surrounding areas: Mandy’s passion started when she founded a nonprofit dog rescue in 2013. They take in dogs with behavior challenges of all kinds! She was curious to see what OLK9 Training could do for the dogs in our care. She was hooked day one! “This training works. The ‘unmanageable/unadoptable dog’ we trained is now an ambassador to all shelter dogs!” She wants to keep families together by training their dogs and giving their owners the tools they need to truly enjoy their dogs with confidence.“I knew this was for me in 2011 when I was talked into getting a “family dog.” I was actually afraid of dogs and the dog we adopted was a nightmare! Instead of giving up, I took her to training classes and watched her bloom into a canine good citizen, and my best friend. When she died I stared SevaDog Rescue and I’ve been working with dogs and their families ever since.”
