Hannah Cartwright's Story
Head Trainer : Located at the
Lauderdale Pet Lodge
Growing up on a farm in North Carolina, I have always involved myself with animals. Combining my love for critters of all shapes and sizes, and the joy I get from being a helping hand, I came to Florida to coach others on the key communication skills necessary in handling their canine companions, in and out of the home. Whatever your lifestyle, I can help you and your family build a stronger bond with your pet. Passionate. Patient. Persistent. Pet-lover. These are just a few of the characteristics that describe me. Every animal is an individual with their own quirks, talents, personalities, and experiences. I am committed to working with yours to give them the specific guidance they need. It’s never too late to teach an old dog new tricks, and I believe it’s never too late to train any pet. My services are designed with you and your family in mind, and I believe in working as much with you as with your animal. Whether you’re thinking about getting an animal, have a new pet, or already own a pet with behavioral problems, I am here to help.

Dear Hannah,
Thank you for the excellent training you gave our dog during his four weeks. As a rescue, he came to you without any discipline. He was so wild, we were at our wits end with him!
Once he started training with you, we saw a difference immediately. Now we're proud to take him anywhere. People always comment on how well behaved he is. Thanks to you, the dog is trained, the family is trained to handle him properly, and everyone is happy.
Thank you!

I would like to give a shout out to Hannah for her amazing pet training skills. I took my dog Roxy for an evaluation, as she needed some much needed re socialization skills; due to an unfortunate dog attack from her past. In just a few short sessions, Hannah was able to get Roxy to trust and play with other dogs again. I can’t tell you how incredible it was to see Roxy happy and playful again with other dogs. Thank you so much Hannah, you saved my puppy Roxy.

Hannah helped me with my pup who is a shy street dog. After just two weeks at school, she was much more confident, walked great on a leash, and I had the tools to bond with her even more! Hannah uses the best method for your dog and thoroughly explains each aspect of the training. Hannah is the absolute best!

Educational Boarding Programs
My Educational Boarding Programs involve an intimate understanding of your animal’s natural instincts while combining your needs and wants with the attributes of your pets personality. Using positive reinforcement and a consistent routine, my techniques and processes of conditioning will lay the foundation for you to build upon.
After a brief stay, your pet will go home a well-rounded companion. An exit lesson is given upon pick-up of the final training day to prepare you and your family with the tools and knowledge to build a stronger bond with your canine. Follow up lessons are also included with each program for consistent coaching on how to practice at home what was learned during their stay.

Home-Schooling
Do you find that most days your dog takes you for a walk, run, and hike? Walking, running, biking, long-boarding, and hiking with your dog should be an enjoyable bonding experience! Do you want to be confident taking your furry companion to local events, the beach, or out to dinner without anxieties or stress?
The Home-Schooling I offer, allow for the dog to be taught how to recognize some simple body language movements from the handler. In every one-on-one session you and your family will be coached on how to reinforce proper manners in various situations, step by step. These key techniques and communication skills will have your companion more focused and entertained. You and your family are the most important part of this learning and doing your homework is essential to success with your canine.
Understanding the world from your dogs perspective while appropriately reinforcing behaviors will earn your dogs respect, making you the fair and fun leader your companion craves!

Canine Good Citizen
COMING SOON!!!
The AKC started the Canine Good Citizen Program in 1989 as a means of rewarding dogs who are well-behaved companions at home and in the community. A key component of the CGC Program is the 10-step CGC test issued by our AKC certified evaluators.
Item #1 - Accept a Friendly Stranger
Item #2 - Sit Politely For Petting
Item #3 - Appearance and Grooming
Item #4 - Our For a Walk (On a Loose Leash)
Item #5 - Walk Through a Crowd
Item #6 - Sit and Down on Command / Staying in Place
Item #7 - Come When Called
Item #8 - Reaction to Another dog

Why Do it? Earning the CGC award will ensure that your dog is a well-respected member of your community. Also, some therapy dog groups require the CGC as a prerequisite. In addition, Canine Good Citizen training is a fun way to spend time with your dog and will help you establish a closer bond.
