Ciara’s balanced training philosophy focuses on communication and trust, helping dogs and their owners build lasting bonds.

Her journey into dog training began in 2019 during an apprenticeship with a certified trainer in Olympia, WA. Inspired by her own dog Gunner’s behavioral challenges, she pursued a passion for rehabilitation and balanced training.

In 2021, she founded All Fur Them, providing pet care and obedience training, and became a certified AKC evaluator for STAR Puppy, CGC, and more. Ciara has completed advanced training programs, including MK9’s 3rd-level certification program.

Her work has earned recognition, such as 1st place for Pet Training and Runner-Up for Pet Boarding in the Best of Lewis County 2024 awards.
