«Why work with a trainer in Barcelona if I live in the USA? «Because you aren’t looking for standard obedience. You are looking for a lifestyle change.Here in Europe, dogs are often seen as integrated citizens—calmly joining their owners in cafes, shops, and city centers. This isn’t magic; it’s a mindset.
Through EmpathyDogs, I bring this «Barcelona State of Mind» to your living room.
No Intrusion: I see your dog’s natural behavior in their safe space, not their «guest» behavior.
You Are the Hero: I coach you to handle the situations. Your dog looks to you for guidance, not to a trainer who leaves after an hour.
Flexible Scheduling: I offer dedicated time slots specifically for US time zones (EST/PST).
