Our Story – Where Does “River’s Walk” Come From?

Tracy welcomed River into her home, a senior dog who had spent a decade living in a shelter and before that, had lived life on the streets.

Despite the hurdles of training a fearful and shutdown dog, Tracy persisted. The journey with River laid the foundation for Tracy’s career as a high-quality dog trainer today.

Through “River’s Walk,” Tracy is a trusted trainer by dog parents and continues to successfully help dogs overcome behavior challenges and achieve their training goals.
