I am a CBCC-KA, CPDT-KA, and CCDT-certified professional with over 30 years of experience working with dogs facing behavioral challenges.

As the founder of Pam's Pawsitive Training, and with numerous additional certifications, I specialize in addressing aggression, anxiety, fear, resource guarding, general training, and puppy training to ensure proper socialization, among other services.

My unique approach begins by reducing the dog's emotional response to stress and triggers—a critical first step because a calm emotional state is the foundation for effective learning and lasting behavioral change.

I am Heather Markwardt, founder of Decoded Dog Training Co. My journey began in 2016 as a shelter volunteer, where a transformative experience with a reactive dog ignited my passion for positive reinforcement training.

Since then, I have served as Rescue Coordinator and President of Tilly’s Pit Crew, honing my skills in helping dogs overcome behavioral challenges. My approach centers on reducing a dog’s emotional stress to build a solid foundation for lasting change.

I’m excited to further my expertise and will be testing for certification with the Certification Council of Professional Dog Trainers in September 2025.
