Dog Dynamix has been helping Denver dog owners train their dogs for over 16 years, specializing in advanced obedience and off-leash training. Whether you need puppy training, behavior problem-solving, or off-leash obedience, Dog Dynamix is committed to delivering top quality results.
Lisa has been an active participant in the Denver dog training scene for many years, and multifaceted dog training experience in competition obedience, protection sports, agility, nosework, dock dock diving and barn hunt. Lisa’s current passion is Mondioring, the international protection sport that challenges the dog and handler team in obedience, agility and protection. She was previously on the Board of Directors for the United States Mondioring Association, the President of Mile High Mondioring, and she is currently the President of Integrite Working Dog Club and a current member of the Association of Professional Dog Trainers.
Lisa understands the value of education and constantly seeks learning opportunities from some of dog training’s greatest names. She has taken many classes and seminars in sport work and pet obedience, attended the Michael Ellis School for Dog Trainers, and apprenticed for two-years under Master Trainer Jennifer Hime of Front Range K9 Academy. This versatile education and network provide extensive experience in many different techniques in dog obedience training, and really expands the ‘toolbox’ for training pet dogs in Denver.
Dog training is a journey, not a destination. There is always something more to learn. Lisa participates in clubs and frequents workshops and seminars to exchange ideas and continue her education. Lisa has close relationships with some of the best dog trainers in the world and works hard to incorporate the best techniques into all of the off leash dog obedience training programs for pet dogs.
A pedigree is what a dog should be
Conformation is what a dog appears to be
Performance is what a dog truly is
Natalie joined our team in January of 2020 and has worked her way from kennel technician to dog trainer to Assistant Manager. Natalie is passionate about all things behavior and training-related. Begining her dog career working at a high volume dog boarding and daycare facility, Natalie worked up from a kennel tech to the assistant manager of the facility. Her passion for dog training began when she adopted her two-year-old rescue dog, River. River was both dog and human reactive and she knew that she needed to be the one to help him through it. As a result, the passion to help other dogs like River was born.Natalie spends her free time roaming through the mountains of Colorado with her three dogs (River, Banjo, and Birdie) and is grateful for the freedom that comes with modern ecollar training and the quality of life that comes with a well-trained dog. Natalie is also jumping into the world of Competition Obedience, and earned her first leg of her Rally Novice title in 2021, taking first place in her class. She is currently leading our Thursday night Rally Obedience drop-in class and intends to finish out River’s RN title in 2022.
Mason joined our team in May of 2024. His career in the dog world began nearly a decade ago working alongside a variety of trainers in the Chicagoland area and then the Saint Louis, MO, area. He has spent years working for dog daycares; running group play sessions, classes, and private lessons. He regularly volunteered time at shelters to train dogs for adoption and he held classes for dogs that were struggling with their transition into new homes. He, also, owned and operated his own dog training business for 5 years prior to joining our team.
Mason has moved across the country to join the Denver team and now enjoys time with his two dogs: Franklin (English Cocker Spaniel) and Maeve (American Pitbull Terrier × Australian Cattle Dog). They regularly hike mountains and walk through small mountain towns with coffees and pup cups. Maeve is his certified cuddle buddy who will sometimes mess around with Obedience and Agility. Franklin is working towards competing in Rally and just starting Nosework.
Amanda joined the Dog Dynamix team in November of 2023. She has had a lifelong love for all animals, but honed in on dog behavior and training back in Chicago when she acquired a very large, very reactive dog that desperately needed her help. With commitment and compassion, the incredible transformation of that dog inspired her to help others.
As soon as Amanda moved to Colorado, she began to foster dogs that needed training help. This provided her with invaluable experience working with many different breeds with a broad spectrum of training needs. She has proudly helped 13 dogs find their forever homes.
Amanda has been professionally training dogs since 2018, and has found the perfect fit at Dog Dynamix. Her mission is to not only make training fun and meaningful for both dogs and their owners, but to help create lasting bonds built on trust and understanding.
In her free time, Amanda enjoys working with her four dogs Bummer, Griswold, Frankie and Forrest. She has found a new passion in agility training with her border collie Forrest, and plans on competing with him in the near future.
