Trainer Biography
Jordan is the owner and head trainer of Mantra K9 Training. She has been involved in the dog industry since 2014 and has had a passion for working with dogs since she was small. Her parents originally nicknamed her Boo, but it soon developed into “Dr. Boo Little”.
Since then, she has been pursuing career opportunities that involved dogs. At the beginning of her journey, dog nutrition piqued her interest. She delved into her studies and emerged creating a personalized diet plan for her dogs and her interest only grew from there. Eventually, she was admitted to California Polytechnic University SLO where she majored in animal science, furthering her research in nutrition and veterinary medicine. She was offered a few opportunities as a vet tech at multiple veterinary hospitals and spent about a year pursuing her career in veterinary science. Until she found dog training, that is.
Dog training began as something that she did on her own with her personal dog, Mowgli, and—at the time—was just a hobby. Her hobby grew when she started attending various seminars and working alongside highly advanced trainers in order to learn different methods of training. Moving forward to today, she has trained Mowgli into becoming her service dog and furthers her research into the depths of the dog industry with her sport dog, Kronos. They have earned their entry title, PDC, with high score and are working towards earning their PSA1 in the bite work sport called PSA. Additionally, she has assisted in birthing and whelping many litters of puppies in hopes to better understand the relationship between genetics and behavior.
Jordan has since been running her own small business where she hopes to support you and your dog on your journey.
