K9 Enrichment + Socialization + Private Training RVA










Working with Ani has been the best decision and investment we've made for our pup, Olive! Ani is trustworthy, skilled, caring, and absolutely amazing at what she does. Olive began with training and later moved to weekly socialization camps. Under Ani's care, Olive has grown quickly and beautifully!
Ani creates and fosters a safe, fun learning environment. Thanks to her, Olive is now confident in group settings, knows how to swim, and can be safely off-leash with a solid recall. Ani is everything you could hope for in a dog enrichment trainer and more! The bond she shares with each of her pups is truly special.

When I met Ani I was raising a young border collie not understanding the needs or idiosyncrasies of the breed. Cyrus joined agility, then play group and camp, and for years, trained and played with Ani and the pack. Cyrus has grown up to be an outstanding pup! The benefits of working with Ani are real and amazing. Cyrus was transformed. I credit Ani with his development. He was more balanced, more confident, more relaxed, and just happy. His brightest spot of the week was trotting off to see Ani and his pack. Ani is by far the most gifted trainer I have ever worked with. She has a special way with these pups. I am the type of dog mom who doesn’t trust a lot of people with my dogs. I trust Ani 1000%. Her care and protection and focus on her pups is a wonder to behold. Your dogs will love Ani and you will, too! If I could sum it up in one word I would say: integrity. Ani is the real deal.

Our very energetic dog, Max, did a variety of agility training, hikes and social camp with Ani for [over 3 years]. Not only did Ani provide great mental and physical enrichment for Max, but she also worked on training for his barking which greatly improved over his time with her (after years of our and others’ failed attempts). I never worried when Max spent the day with Ani given how excited he was every time he saw her, and I could always trust she prioritized safety of all dogs while making sure everyone had the best time. We are so excited for her to start this new chapter, but there is truly no replacement for her and we/Max miss her everyday!
