Stilwell is one of the world’s best-known dog trainers due to her hit TV show It’s Me or the Dog, through which she shares her passion for educating the public about the power of reward-based positive reinforcement training methods and the dangers and ineffectiveness of traditional dominance-based philosophies.  With the formation of Victoria Stilwell Positively Dog Training (VSPDT), Stillwell has assembled a global team of world-class positive reinforcement dog trainers dedicated to promoting humane, force-free dog training methods which result in a truly balanced human/dog relationship based on mutual trust, respect and love.

After working with Victoria and her team, Matthews accepted an exclusive offer to join the VSPDT team.  As an accomplished dog trainer dedicated to maintaining the highest level of professionalism and expertise while following the latest in the ever-evolving field of animal behavioral science, Matthews offers the North Atlanta Metro and North Georgia areas a dog training option they can rely upon to achieve results using the same science-based, humane methods displayed by Victoria on It’s Me or the Dog.
