Train with Echo Ridge K9 LLC

My Story

Hello, my name is Rozalynn Parkhurst and I have been training animals since a very young age. I started with my first horse at the age of 9, joined 4-H and was head over heels for the love of training from there on, even competing my thoroughbred cross into the upper levels in eventing. 

Years later, I decided to try my hand at dog training, at which I found to be very similar to horses.  I brought my first sport dog home at 8 weeks old and have never looked back.  Not only have I started many police dogs, but I continue to compete my own dog in the Protection Sports Association. 

One of my strongest core beliefs as a dog trainer is that we never stop learning and improving.  I continue my education weekly in group trainings and seminars, and not only in sport but other methods and forms of training as well.  My belief is to develop a mutual understanding between you and your dog, let the dog train you as much as you train your dog.  

As we all say in dog training, “train the dog in front of you" meaning that the same method does not apply to every dog! Always remember, this is supposed to be FUN!
