Alana Wolfe is the owner and founder of Dog Sense with Alana Wolfe, a dedicated dog training and pet care service built on knowledge, compassion, and real-world experience. With over a decade of hands-on experience working with dogs—and professionally offering pet care services since 2015—Alana provides thoughtful, reliable support for both dogs and their people.

As a GoodPup Certified Trainer, Alana has also completed an intensive, hands-on apprenticeship under experienced trainer Allie Renar, who brings more than 20 years of professional expertise. This combination of formal education and practical experience allows Alana to approach each dog with both technical skill and a deep understanding of individual needs.

Alana’s training style is positive, clear, and tailored to each dog. She focuses on building strong communication, confidence, and lasting good behavior. Her work follows the LIMA (Least Intrusive, Minimally Aversive) approach, prioritizing humane, science-based methods that use the least stressful and most effective techniques to support learning.

She has experience working with dogs of all ages, temperaments, and energy levels—from puppies learning foundational skills to adult dogs in need of structure, manners, or behavioral support.

Dogs have always been central to Alana’s life. She shared many meaningful years with her own dog, who passed in 2025—an experience that deepened her understanding of patience, behavior, and the importance of consistent, compassionate care. In addition to her professional work, Alana volunteers with dogs, continuing to expand her experience while giving back to the community. These experiences shape her approach to every dog she works with, grounded in respect, empathy, and thoughtful guidance.
