About Me - Tyler Academy

Welcome

THE PAWSITIVE REVOLUTION

Tyler Academy® is a space where you will learn not only how to train your dog but to really bond with them.
Just like you, I once decided to take the first step in improving my relationship with my dog.

And today, I have decided to spread the knowledge and share it with you!

WHO IS BEHIND TYLER ACADEMY?

Hey!

MY NAME IS ABRIL SALGADO RODRIGUES

I help humans, dogs and families to create an exclusive bond. To overcome their fears and frustrations.
You now have concerns I once had with Ty. I have achieved great things and now I want the same for everyone else.

My goal is to make you feel that connection, the one words can´t possibly describe… it can only be lived with your dog.
I know what it is to feel lost, without answers.
When Tyler arrived in my life, he was nothing like I have imagined. I was disappointed and felt like nothing I was doing actually worked.
At some point I felt like I was not the best for him. Like everything I was doing was wrong in some way.
But I stepped up. And realized that to be the best guide for him, I simply had to work effectively. I also knew that If we didn´t start having fun, things wouldn´t work.

YOU ARE NOT ALONE!

You have already decided to improve the relationship with your dog. To improve as their human, as their guide, as a person responsable for an animal being.

Lo sé ¡porque estuve ahí y estoy lista para ayudarte a lograr lo mismo porque te lo mereces!

This is our story

And like every other story, it starts with me knowing nothing and second guessing myself.

I wasn’t prepared at all. for being a dog owner. For taking care of a living being that has needs completely different to human ones.

Dog training or dog education? I had actually no idea they were an actual thing.

I was disappointed with myself. I felt everything I was doing was wrong. I scolded him for things he couldn’t control and I didn’t know how to make him change those things.

We always had dogs in our home, and this opportunity was to supposed to be the best one ever. He was going to be my dog.

I started researching and realized there was an entire world I wawsn’t aware of. I started learning, studying and learning from my mistakes. I entered the dog world. It was huge for both, Tyler and me.

Our bond not only grew in ways I didn’t expect. It evolved towards levels I didnt’ know they could ever exist. A personal growth through the connection with my fluffy partner was completely unconventional for me. So I decided our journey couldn’t end there.

It was decided. I was to help out others get here, just like us.

The Pawsitive Revolution is to be a heaven. Some place to leave your confort zone and drives you to achieve unthinkable things, all while wearing a giant smile in your face. A natural connection that makes you feel part of a world that makes you feel alive when you jump, run or roll yourself in mud.

They say dogs are a man’s best friend. They will be at your side as your great friend. You will learn things from them.

They also say dogs start looking like their owners. But I believe it goes beyond that. Thay are a refflection of what’s running inside of us, an emotion they can sniff with their wet snouts. Their well being depends on us being better each day, and what’s better than a friend to help us be our better self?
