WNC K9 Dog Training: Who, How, When and Where's

  • Print
  • Email

WNC K9 is owned by Gail Hubbard from A Good Dog's Life which has transitioned into A Good Dog's Life Training Center welcoming other trainers to offer their specialty to the mix of offerings. 

The word ‘Mission’ — by definition means a strongly felt aim, ambition or calling.  I am called to go out into the world and spread understanding, wisdom and faith.

WNC K9’s MISSION is to help you find your dog training GOALS and achieve results.

 

I will (1) empower each dog owner to take  action(s)  daily to create the real and lasting changes they desire for their family pet.  (2) Help educate, mentor and coach each dog owner by addressing a wide range of human-canine behaviors that are in conflict with one another.  (3) Identify  every  obstacle holding the team back and prescribe practical strategies based on breedtype, personalities and science-based animal  learning  theory to create the results dog owners want. 

WNC K9’s VISION is to P.E.P. you up!

  • Purposefully — create passion and drive to thoroughly enjoy your dog. 
  • Education — cultivate practical daily  action and understanding that feed-off your intentions, goals and ability to be calm and playful — thus transforming your dog.
  • Patience — develop understanding that stems out of LOVE for your dog.

My mission and vision is guided by my core-values.

WNC K9’s CORE-VALUES remind me that my aim, ambition and calling must be balanced with behaviors that lead me to do the right things; I balance the mission and vision with my core-values for ethical reasons.

Integrity — I am proud of my internal consistency to follow science-based animal learning theory.  My words and actions will be authentic and ethical.

Achievement — I will strive to be good educators and are judged in my work by my individual and collective accomplishments.

Investment — I believe in my future and will continuously invest in myself both personally and professionally.

Balance — Enjoy life!   Work passionately; play hard; love and appreciate family, friends and each and every dog breed and client.

While it’s easy to write these words, it’s harder to live up to them. Ask me what this means personally and see how I COMMIT myself every day to live and work in ways that put my core-values into action.

You are welcome to contact me if ever you have a question.
