“Ask the Trainer” with Beth Sadowski of Music City Dog Training From 1:00-3:00pm
A well-trained dog means a happy home, and a happy home means less dogs causing conflict resulting in dogs ending up in shelters or worse. Beth Sadowski of Music City Dog Training has been certified in canine behavior from the Canine Trade Group, in Dover, Delaware, led by John Van Olden, who has been successfully rehabilitating dogs for over 2 decades. She holds to the understanding that training should be about more than teaching dogs a few tricks—it should be about getting to the root of the problem, establishing effective communication between dog and owner, and taking lengths to ensure the behavior problems don’t come back again. In addition to basic obedience and puppy training, Beth specializes in separation anxiety, aggression, and hyperactivity. Beth resides in the Grassland area of Franklin with her husband, 4 cats, 3 dogs and 12 chickens.

The Salon is proud to extend the philosophy of care that The Farm at Natchez Trace holds, as being a loving, stress free, safe, and individualized approach to care. Combining her experience, with a gentle touch, our grooming and bathing team have had great success with dogs who have found grooming to be terrifying, if not impossible to get through. Not only getting them safely through the process safely, but giving them a positive experience as well. The Salon features top quality, safe, and natural grooming products, in a personalized, low volume setting. The Salon of course offers top quality grooming. Our team is well educated on breed standards and can help make your pet look their personal best. The Salon groomer, Hallie, considers her ability to hand scissor a fine finish, as well as to see, apply, and achieve balance on any dog one of her greatest skills.
