Emily Roach

Founder

Hailing from Buffalo, New York, Emily's household was complete with animals.  A self-described "Urban Zoo," she grew up with a wide range of animals, and thanks to this upbringing, she began training animals at a very young age.

In 2006, she moved to Los Angeles and enrolled in Pierce College to study veterinary medicine, along with adopting our fearless mascot, KODA.  Emily quickly realized some behavior issues and visited multiple trainers to correct them.  Having no luck, she decided to handle the problem herself.  In 2008, Emily began a three-year apprenticeship in dog behavior and left the pursuit in Veterinary Medicine.  This apprenticeship allowed Emily to work in the entertainment industry and rescue world while focusing on her passion for training dogs. 

Emily focuses on troubled animals, believing all dogs should have a chance regardless of the problem.  Acting as a translator between owner and pet, she will implement the necessary actions to correct any functional problem.
