About Me

I teach humans how to speak dogs

Hi, My name is Sonia and for as long as I remember, I have loved all animals. I first became involved in dog rescue and then in teaching others the joy of developing harmonious relationships with animals through positive reinforcement training.

I am CPDT-KA® certified and also a lead trainer at Karma Dog Training company.

My dream journey began 15 years ago when I started to volunteer in animal shelters back in Europe. Years of education about Dog Psychology and positive reinforcement training methods allowed me to share the knowledge with pet parents on how to better understand their beloved fur-ever friends!

My DogOlogy

Why the power of positive training is the right choice?

Your dog learns that good things happen to him when he does the thing you like. If you give your dog a reward (praise, play, food, toys, etc.) when he responds to you or offers an action or a behavior that you like, then that behavior is likely to be repeated.

Dogs learn in the same way that people do. They evaluate whether their interactions in the environment have positive or negative outcome. Then they adjust their behavior to get more of the good and less of the bad. Positive reinforcement training is the best way to shape your dog’s future behavior and strengthen the bond between you and your pooch.

Testimonials

Sonia is absolutely wonderful!!! My dog is beyond the moon excited every time she sees Sonia and loves being with her! Sonia has taken her on fun adventures to the park, gives her lots of love, and even works on training techniques with my dog too. I am incredibly grateful that I found Sonia and happy to know how happy my dog is whenever she’s with her. If you want someone who’s sweet and incredible with dogs, Sonia is the one!

Sonia G is by far the most dedicated and thoughtful individual when it comes to dogs. While maintaining an up-to-date education on current k-9 ethical practices and standards. Sonia G may be caught exploring the streets of LA, constantly in search of a most fun-filled adventure for man’s best friend. Though an athlete at heart, Sonia G will often be celebrating her biggest indulgence, baking. But this time, it’s for dogs only, what a treat! Good to know, allergies, preference(s) and variety are always her priorities when it comes to cooking for doggies. Come to think of it, I might have even caught her, once or twice, snacking on her own baked treats. No-matter-though, Sonia G has always made it point, to explicitly express, they’re-good-enough for a human to eat but more importantly, safe-enough too. An I trust her, and you should too. Your pup(s) will be happier for it too! An if my words aren’t testimony enough, just take every pooch that’s been lucky enough to meet her and received a freshly baked treat that’s hand-crafted just for them. I can still smell that freshly baked batch of doggie treats. Modern, sophisticated, Sonia G has a heart of gold when it comes to anyone’s pup(s) and believe me when I say, “your dog just might be begging for those treats.” I wholeheartedly recommend Sonia G.
