"Dog training isn't just about training the dog, it is learning what our dogs are telling us, what we are telling our dogs, and how we can be in harmony as a pack."

Juniper Trails Dog Training is a holistic approach to our partnership with dogs. The training process addresses all the components of a pack, your dog's unique personality and your goals.

The Juniper Trails Way:
I believe the bond between dog and owner is special and sacred. That we connect with our dogs on an intimate level and that "I am, because WE are". We are who we are because of our dogs and our pack. Since the first follower wolves started following bands of humans, canines and Homo sapiens have been intertwined. That bond is why I train.

I believe that when training one must look at 4 crucial elements: Pack relationships, your dogs purpose in the pack, play (how your dog lets loose) and physical well-being. When one of those is suffering, that's when we see behavioral problems.

Whether you are looking for behavioral modification, obedience training, tricks, puppy foundation or to deepen your relationship with your dog, you've come to the right place. Training is a process of growth, deepening connections, learning about ourselves, and most importantly - fun!

As a Positive Reinforcement and Force Free Trainer we will not use any aversive tools in the learning process. I wont train with E-Collars (shock collars), choke chains, prong collars, slip leads, correction spray, and etc.

The tools I will use to train are: treats, toys, harnesses, leashes, clicker, and long lines.

Rick has loved dogs since childhood, starting with Cocker Spaniels, a Samoyed, a Weimaraner, and a Shepherd Mix. Fascinated by the human-dog bond, his life changed in 2016 while living in Philadelphia when he visited the PennVet Working Dog Center, a world-class facility for training, research, and education. After one tour, he immediately signed up as a volunteer-and never left.

Over the next eight years, Rick worked with more than 100 dogs, from puppies to young adults, under 12 expert trainers in fields including Law Enforcement, Search & Rescue, Detection, Agility, Obedience, Fitness, Environmental Exposure, and Veterinary care. He began with simple tasks like walking dogs and quickly advanced to handling every aspect of training and raising working dogs. He has fostered and transported many K9s, experiencing a wide range of personalities and behaviors firsthand.

In 2017, Rick fostered a Dutch Shepherd named Odysseus ("Ody"), who became his permanent partner and later pursued a second career in private narcotic detection. Ody's balanced demeanor also helped raise over 60 K9s who lived in Rick's home during training.

By 2025, Rick earned his Train the Trainer Scent Detection Certification, training 15 K9 teams in a 400-hour course. That same year, after moving to Park City, UT, he began working with challenging dogs at Nuzzles pet rescue, which led to the creation of Park City K9 Academy.

For your fur baby!

It all started with an idea: to transform sustainable by-products-spent beer grain-into wholesome, science-backed treats dogs love. We wanted treats made from ingredients we could pronounce and feel good about feeding our own pups, Katja and Kahlua, rather than products filled with unnecessary salt, sugar, and preservatives.

As we learned more about canine nutrition, science guided our expansion. Dogs are biologically designed to thrive on nutrient-dense animal ingredients, not just fillers. Organ meats-often referred to as nature's multivitamins-contain concentrated levels of essential nutrients. Our organ meat jerkies capture these nutrients in a simple, protein-rich format. By drying and preserving nutrient-dense organs into jerky, we offer dogs a snack that mirrors the nutritional density their ancestors would have sought in the wild-without artificial additives.

We also introduced pasture-raised, locally sourced raw "body-part chewies" because chewing is more than entertainment-it supports dental health and satisfies natural instincts. Raw chews encourage mechanical abrasion that helps reduce plaque and tartar buildup while providing a long-lasting, engaging activity. Because our chews come from responsibly raised animals and local ranchers, we honor the principle of whole-animal utilization and sustainable sourcing.
