As owner of Five By Five Canine, I am a OneMind Dogs Instructor and a certified Control Unleashed instructor. My instruction is based on seeing everything from the dog’s perspective and customizing every training or handling solution to each individual team.
I have worked with some of the best trainers in the world, including Tereza Králová, Lisa Frick, Silvia Trkman, Nic Jones, Tuulia & Timo Liuhto, Elina Janesniemi, Sarah Stremming, Leslie McDevitt, and many others. In 2017, I traveled to Finland to work with OneMind Dogs creators, Jaakko & Janita Leinonen.
Why does this matter? You and your team are unique—that means you deserve a solution designed just for you. Together, we can determine the right tools to utilize from my extensive toolbox to solve the specific problems you’re facing as a team, and tailor your training directly to your exact training goals.

“My two year old sheltie and I have learned so much working with Bronagh over the past year. We started working with Bronagh by taking her short sequence agility skills classes. Her fun exercises and energetic feedback assisted our ability to grow teamwork skills and build confidence. Along the way, my young sheltie displayed environmental stresses particularly noise sensitivity. So we were fortunate to transition into Bronagh’s behavioral Control Unleashed classes. Today he is a much more focused happy dog. We have benefitted from her individualized creative games and ideas which go well beyond help for the agility ring. We are currently preparing him to be more comfortable for upcoming vet and groomer appointments for example. Bronagh is highly intelligent with an astute ability to read dogs and give clear productive feedback. She is a joy to work with and her Advanced Control Unleashed class is my dog’s favorite. He tells me that every week. I highly recommend her both for agility and behavior training.”
