TPP Founder Jamie Burks
My love for dogs runs deep, but my passion for raising a well balanced pet is unsurpassed.
If there’s one thing you should know about me, it’s that I never do things half-way. When my mom surprised me with a cattle dog puppy before my 11th birthday, it sparked a deep dive into trick training. One thing led to another, and dog training is now an all-consuming lifestyle.
Playing and competing in Agility, Disc (Frisbee), and other dog sports with my personal pets has provided invaluable lessons about the importance of a solid foundation, effective communication, and a play-based approach. As with any hierarchy, the foundation is what allows you to move upwards without crumbling. This is what fuels my practice.
Countless hours attending seminars, collaborating with trainers, and immersing myself in the industry has equipped me with a diverse set of training methods. This flexibility allows me to approach each dog as a unique individual, adept to meeting their specific needs with confidence.
I believe that learning never stops and have yet to work with a dog who didn’t teach me something new. I can’t wait to help you and your dog(s) live a life of fulfillment and harmony!
