Adrianne Steimonts, Lead Trainer

Portland and the surrounding areas

Adrianne has spent all of her life dedicated to dogs. For years she's explored every aspect of care and continues to love assisting owners in reaching their goals all the way from essential basic manners to behavioral work and competition sports such as agility and obedience. She believes the goal is always a happy dog and the proof is the success rate.

In her free time Adrianne loves working and competing with her dogs in a variety of sports. She and her dogs hold multiple titles as well as multi national championships and several worldwide invites with dock diving sports. Her competitive sport interests focus in IPO, formally known as schutzhund, but she loves the variety and will try any sport. She and her dogs have competed in flyball, agility, obedience, barn hunts, and more.
