About
Meet Ines
I'm Ines, a force-free, certified trainer working across Nashville. I start with the dog's history and your goals, then build a plan you can actually keep up between sessions. Puppy foundations, loose-leash walking, and reactivity are my bread and butter — no fear, no force, just clear communication and steady progress you can see.
