Passion and dedication

Owner and trainer of PVDT, Courtney Grant, has been actively engaged in dog training and rescue for most of her life. Courtney has served in varying roles for rescue organizations throughout Northern Colorado and fostered and adopted out a multitude of dogs. Her rescue work has given her an opportunity to experience training needs across many scenarios with varying breeds and home situations. Courtney has specific expertise in the introduction and home-coming aspects of new dog ownership, having developed routines and protocols to make those events easier for both the family and the newly arriving dog. She also loves working with reactive and fearful dogs, helping them learn the world isn't a scary place. Courtney is a Certified Training Partner through the Karen Pryor Academy for Animal Training Behavior, the forefront of science-based, positive reinforcement dog training.

Courtney's combination of experience and education, paired with her laid back and approachable training style, makes training stress-free for both you and your pup. Click here to learn more about Courtney's training philosophy, or contact us today for more information.
