Why Pet Parents Across Yamhill County Choose Mandy:

With a professional background in dog training and behavior consulting, Mandy looks beyond the surface behavior to help you better understand what your dog needs and why.

Practical Support for Real Life

Training should work outside of a lesson. We build skills you can use during walks, around the house, when visitors arrive, and throughout your normal routine—without expecting you or your dog to be perfect.

Mandy Boutelle CCT, CTBC, FFCP

Multi-Certified Trainer & Behavior Consultant

I’ve spent well over a decade working with dogs — first as a dog walker in California, where I began noticing patterns in animal behavior that sparked my interest in dog training. That curiosity grew into years of hands-on work with dogs of all personalities — from social butterfly pups to those with that need extra time gaining trust — and led me to become a certified dog trainer and behavior consultant.

Today, dog training and behavior support are at the core of my work, helping guardians not just build calmer, more manageable lives with their dogs - but helping them better understand the why behind what their dogs are doing.

When I’m not working with clients’ pets, you can usually find me exploring Oregon’s trails with my cattle-dog mix, Fern, or relaxing at home with my husband, Josh, and our cat, Fig.
