About Obi Academy
Obi Academy was built from a lifelong love of dogs, nature, and the belief that animals deserve calm, patient, and respectful care.
Training and grooming should never feel rushed or harsh. Dogs learn best when they feel safe, understood, and respected — and that belief guides everything we do.
Samantha’s story
Samantha grew up in a household where there was always at least one dog — often two. Time spent outdoors, caring for animals, and learning their personalities shaped her from an early age.
Although she earned a college degree, Samantha chose a different path — one rooted in working hands-on with dogs every day. Grooming, training, and scent work allow her to combine structure, patience, and empathy in a way that feels purposeful and rewarding.
Obi Academy is the result of that choice: a place where dogs are treated as individuals, progress is built thoughtfully, and results are earned — not forced.
Respect First
Dogs are not machines. Every dog is handled with patience and respect for their comfort and limits.
Clear Structure
Calm routines and clear expectations help dogs succeed in grooming, training, and daily life.
Real-World Results
The goal is not perfection — it’s a dog that functions calmly and reliably in the real world.
