About Me

Most people see a "behavior problem" and think it’s a lack of discipline. Others see a "health issue" and think it’s just bad luck or bad genetics. I see a connection between the two and that's my Unicorn Approach.

​

I am Becca Prox, a Certified Animal Naturopath and AKC registered dog trainer and evaluator. My mission is to help dogs—and the people who love them—find harmony through a dual-lens approach that you won’t find anywhere else in the Southeast Wisconsin & Northern Illinois regions.

​

I am not a licensed veterinarian, but I can and do work closely with them as needed. My approach to animal care is natural, supportive, and alternative methods only. I do not provide medical diagnosis, prescribe allopathic medication, or perform procedures. Always seek licensed veterinary care when indicated. 

​

Why my "Unicorn" Approach Matters

 

I take an approach that other dog trainers don't. I look at your dog wholistically. Have you ever noticed that a dog’s anxiety seems to spike when their skin is itchy? Or that a dog struggling with joint pain suddenly becomes reactive on the leash? Or that your dog suddenly became guarded of its food when it had never done so before? Sometimes, there's a health reason behind behavior and that's what I explore.

​

The truth is: A dog cannot behave their best if they do not feel their best.

​

By combining naturopathic health principles (nutrition, herbal support, and lifestyle optimization) with force-free dog training, I address the root cause of the issue rather than just masking symptoms. We can train a dog to react a certain way, but if they still don't feel good, we're only treating part of the problem.

My Expertise

 

With professional certification in Animal Naturopathy and two decades of experience in behavioral modification and obedience training, I focus on:

• AKC standardized training using force-free dog training methods

• Bio-Individual Nutrition: Customizing diets that fuel your dog’s specific needs

• Holistic Wellness: Using natural modalities to support the body’s innate ability to heal

• Obedience with Empathy: Training that builds confidence, respect, and a deep bond between you and your dog

As of 2026, I'm working toward certifications in Separation Anxiety Coaching, Animal Herbalism, and Canine Behavior (to be completed in 2027).
