MEET YOUR TRAINER (and Fellow Reactive Dog Owner)
Madelyn Schaedler
I’ve been a professional dog trainer for seven years, specializing in reactivity and calmness-based training. I know the frustration of leash pulling firsthand—my own dog, Mufasa, used to drag me everywhere. And as someone with MS, I need my German shepherd, Apollo, to walk calmly—he’s big enough that if he pulled, I could easily get hurt.
I believe dog training should be simple and fit into your daily routine. That’s why I focus on easy, game-based exercises that teach dogs to want to walk nicely—without force or frustration. I love helping owners go from feeling helpless to confidently walking their dogs with ease.
I created Drama Free Walks because I know how life-changing it is when walks become enjoyable instead of stressful. You don’t need hours of training—just a few minutes a day to see real results. I can’t wait to help you and your dog enjoy peaceful, relaxed walks together!
I know what it's like. Let's fix this together.
