Welcome! I’m Nadja Juliana Wiese (VSA-CDT, FDM, Fear Free Certified Professional)
For over 20 years, I’ve worked closely with dogs and their people - starting in professional pet care and eventually discovering my true passion: helping dogs and humans build trust and communicate better. Today, I specialize in positive, science-based training that strengthens relationships and supports emotional well-being.
​
My Specialties Are:
​
-
Fearful and reactive dogs
-
Cooperative care and husbandry training
-
Enrichment and meeting dogs' behavioral needs
-
Helping people better understand the “why” behind behavior
Whether we’re working one-on-one or you're using one of my courses, planners, or digital resources, my goal is to help you:
​
-
Understand how your dog thinks, learns, and communicates
-
Set up your home and routines to support your dog’s emotional health
-
Recognize your dog’s instincts, genetics, and individual needs
-
Build connection and cooperation through communication - not control
Why Work With a Certified Trainer?
Dog training is an unregulated industry - anyone can call themselves a trainer. My professional certifications mean I’ve committed to ethical standards, evidence-based methods, and ongoing education. Training should never come at the cost of a dog’s emotional or physical health. That’s a commitment I take seriously.
