meet your trainer
Welcome! I'm Jeannie Oakley, Owner & Trainer of Paw it Forward LLC
What do I love about being in my 50s?
It’s like the Goldilocks Decade for wisdom. I’m calmer, smarter and wiser.
I am a Type A personality. Structured, honest, organized and empathic. My clients are family and training is family based for the real world.
The real world doesn't clock in at 9am and clock out at 5pm. Dog ownership is 24/7. I am flexible to be available for you as much as I can.
My specialty is helping you create a NEUTRAL dog and a more NEUTRAL and confident YOU. I specialize in canine anxiety, helping your dog get off the meds and teaching you how to always advocate for you dog in all social situations.
I added a tribute to my first husky, Sheena.
She taught me more than I could ever teach her.
Let’s get to know each other. I’m here to help whether you sign up or not.
At my stage of life, I want to GIVE back more than I take.
My Tribute To Sheena
My Heart, My Soul Dog
Sometimes a dog comes along that you label your “Soul Dog”. One that enters your life and awakens you to a new understanding of true connection.
Sheena wore many hats, beginning with my companion. She soon became my partner, a true canine evaluator and truth teller; able to feel the dog from the inside out. She taught me to look beyond training textbooks. She was a master at helping anxious dogs and a master at working with reactive dogs.
We worked together helping dogs with simplicity, nature, and the thrill of the hunt.
Because of her, I saw dogs through her eyes. I began to see the dogs as the TEACHER.
I learned from them. She was my rock through many personal battles.
Until the last battle, the one she could not win.
I was then her rock, her caregiver, her advocate, and her soul, until her body was tired. On that day, I held her paw, thanked her for the lessons she taught me and her unconditional love. I whispered to her that she earned her stripes & wings and I’d be okay. She then closed her eyes for last time. Always in my heart, my sweet girl.
In Loving Memory,
01/06/06 to 04/01/18.
