ABOUT US
Misfit Herders is built for the outliers — the dogs with big emotions, strong instincts, complicated pasts, or behaviors that don’t match the world around them.
​
I specialize in helping:
-
High-drive working breeds
-
Reactive or anxious dogs
-
Young puppies who need a foundation
-
Dogs who struggle with impulse control
-
Owners who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or out of options
If your dog doesn’t fit the mold, you’re in the right place.

“Delaney is absolutely incredible. She brings patience, insight, and a fantastic sense of humor to every moment. She didn’t just work with my dog — she taught me how to communicate clearly, lead confidently, and create a calmer, more respectful dynamic at home. After just three sessions, the transformation was undeniable. Our bond is stronger, our routines are smoother, and even people in our K9 Nose Work class commented on how different things feel. If you have a smart, high-drive dog — or if you suspect the human in the home might be the one who secretly needs the training — run, don’t walk, to Delaney.”
