About
Our Mission
6 Paws Training Camp was created not just to teach people to train their dogs, but as a way to encourage dog owners to get out and experience nature with their furry best friends. We aim to develop a better connection between owners, their dogs, and nature through basic obedience training in everyday distractions, and fun outdoor recreation adventures.

Founder, Owner, & Head Trainer
6 Paws Training Camp, LLC
My name is Taniyah, owner of 6 Paws Training Camp. From a young age I had a passion for dogs and nature. I participated in obedience, agility and conformation shows with my furry best friend at the time, a Bouvier de Flandres named Sterling. My current canine companion is Sprout, pictured above.
In 2011 I received my Bachelor's Degree in Ecology at Rutgers University and spent several years working in wildlife husbandry, and wildlife conservation, where I learned and practiced positive reinforcement training for husbandry and educational purposes. My love for dogs never waivered as I developed a second love for teaching.
My career journey led me to move to Tucson, AZ where I worked in the Arizona Conservation Corps teaching environmental stewardship to young adults and sought to obtain my dog training certification at Yavapai College. 6 Paws Training Camp is the result of that journey.
