My name is Kelty Forman! I am the owner and head trainer of Scentsible K9. I started this business because I have a deep passion for expanding a dog's potential and helping to create strong bonds between them and their owners.
My journey began after working countless hours in doggy day cares and groom shops. I discovered a love for canine psychology while working towards my Bachelor's Degree in Psychology from Boise State University. After receiving my degree, I volunteered with the National Disaster Search Dog Foundation in Santa Paula, California.
Not long after, I took on an internship at Fowler K9 Academy, previously known as Blue Line K9 before I transitioned to a full-time trainer role at Tip Top K9. I then went on to complete a Police K9 handler course and earned a certification as a Narcotics Detection team with my yellow lab, Barley, through the High Desert Police K9 Association. Additionally, I completed the Behavior Shaping E-Collar/Laser course through Paraclete K9. In 2024, I also became a certified Canine Good Citizen (CGC) evaluator with the American Kennel Club (AKC). These experiences and certifications have provided me with a unique approach to dog training that I bring to every session.
I believe a "one size fits all" approach to dog training does not exist. Every dog is born with different motivators. We, as their humans don’t get to decide what the best motivation is for our dogs but it is our job to find out what it is. Training should be fair and engaging for the dog.
I strongly believe that rewards and accountability are two keys to permanent results. In order to effectively communicate with an animal, trust must be built and corrections must be implemented when necessary. We are the leaders in charge of our dog's success. Teaching them right from wrong will create a trusting relationship.
While a trainer can improve a dog's behavior, it's essential for owners to remain committed to the upkeep of their pet's training. It's important to keep in mind that dogs lack moral principles and are unlikely to adhere to rules when their owners do not hold them accountable for their actions.
Each dog is unique and is at a different stage in their training journey. Share more about your dog, and together we can create the perfect training plan for them.
