Episode 37: Daphne Mendoza-Tervanis (A Dog Trainer Life)
Welcome to ”Dog Training Bytes” – the show where canine professionals share their key takeaways, big a-ha moments, and hardest lessons learned from working with dogs.
Today’s guest is Daphne Mendoza-Tervanis, a dog behavior expert and founder of A Dog Trainer Life. Daphne’s journey into dog training is as inspiring as it is powerful—she immigrated to the U.S. from Mexico at age 10 and launched her own dog walking business in high school to pay her way through college. Since then, she’s worked at various dog training facilities, graduated from FetchFind Academy, and built a thriving training business of her own.
She now blends her behavior expertise with her passion for dog sports to help both pets and their people thrive.
You can connect with Daphne on Instagram and through her website.
