About our trainer

Pamela Wiltgen – Kentucky Trainer/Owner – Serving Mason County, Paris, and Lexington, Kentucky

Far Fetched Tales Dog Training combines over 40 years of experience from working with animals on the farm to competition. Pamela professionally showed and trained horses. Now she has shifted her passion to the world of canines.

Retired Kennel Master, GAMSD Medical Service Dogs, working with diabetic alert dogs, seizure alert dogs, mobility dogs, and PTSD dogs.   Recipient of 14 DOCNA National Agility Titles with both of my Pembroke Welsh Corgi’s.  Both Corgi’s were also ATA Treiball competitors.  

Private lessons on behavior problems have been my specialty during my tenor as a dog trainer.  Every dog is unique, and every situation is different. We address many problems including: house soiling, jumping, excessive barking, fear, chewing, barking, crate training, separation anxiety, and destructive behavior.

Pamela is also experienced in working with  service dogs for PTSD, Diabetic Alert, and Seizure Alert. On a daily basis, these service dogs perform miracles for those less fortunate.

Our techniques and studies all are in a positive reinforcement soft approach, which if you change the environment your approach changes.

“The position of the animal’s head, their eye shape, twitches of an ear, or body posture tells Pamela the story about your dog.”

Far Fetched Tales Dog Training is a Certified Mentor Training Facility by the Animal Behavior College.

Pamela has also been featured as a guest dog trainer on the Pet Radio Show and on BlogTalkRadio’s Aqua Botanic and Pet Radio Show.

Far Fetched Tales Dog Training uses applied techniques and studies in a positive training application and soft approach, which if you change the environment your approach changes. Shaping and capturing behaviors means waiting for your dog to perform a certain behavior, and rewarding it so he will repeat it again. It won’t work for everything you want to teach your dog, but you may be surprised at how quickly your dog learns to do new things! With shaping and capturing, you are taking one task and breaking it down into several smaller steps. It’s a wonderful method for reaching your dog’s hidden talents!

Clients Feedback

Fantastic!!! We saw great results after just the first visit. Pamela didn’t even wait until she came to our house to begin helping us. Our puppy was showing some aggressive behavior and possessiveness. She called us to set up a time to meet and gave some short term help until she could get to us. You will be amazed with the personal, professional training she will give you. She not only helps train your dog, she trains you to be a better trainer. She customizes her training to each person who has contact with the dog. The best decision I made was hiring her to help us.

I cannot believe Banjo is the same dog! I’m so glad I made the decision for you to come to the house for a private lesson! We have been practicing our homework, and when we went for a walk today, he didn’t even look at the dog he normally wants to attack! They walked by and his owner told me that this is the best she has ever seen him! This was his first walk where we came across another dog since you were here on Thursday, that’s only 3 days ago! We were so impressed by you and your expertise that I don’t think Caesar Milan has ANYTHING at all compared to what we saw in the short time you spent with Banjo and how you taught us what to do!

Fred has surpassed my puppy expectations much to the work we have done in agility class. He minds well at home and can be controlled in public situations with commands learned in STAR Puppy and Beginning Agility. I have two small children, aged 2 and 5, that also use the basics with the dog in the house and backyard. We are beyond 20 recognizable words/commands at 5 months old. Pamela has a way with dogs that is just amazing. She sees a behavior and can show how to correct it in a way that works and sticks

Pamela Wiltgen is a wonderful dog trainer and has a great way with animals. In particular, she helped develop Agility & Obedience skills with our two young All American Dogs. She is highly recommended and her extensive knowledge is extremely valuable

“Pam knows dogs. My 5.5 year old border collie/lab mix was intelligent and eager, but needed a good way to expend extra energy. Did not think the training would work as well as it did. One hour with Pam and I feel I have a new dog!!!! loved the experience and the knowledge I learned!!! Super worth it!!!

“Far Fetched Tales is always very professional in training our dog and for taking care of her when we travel. We don’t worry at all when we go on vacation. We know she is well cared for and happy!”

M.K.

Pamela is AWESOME! I would definitely recommend her, she’s very, very good at what she does, and even after the first visit we saw definitive, positive changes in our dog.

Happy Dog Owner

I am interested in definitely you either coming back or/and taking your class for dogs over 1 year. I know there is so much he can learn and now I have the confidence to make him do what he needs to so I can get him to listen and stop his bad behavior. I vacuumed today, and he stayed in the hallway to the bedroom and watched! You are AMAZING!

Sherri-Mandarin

Five days after our first appointment our dog has already improved. Our ‘bad’first dog is behaving better than our ‘good’ dog. He still needs work but we are very happy with Pamela’s methods and we are looking forward to the next step.

Mason County, KY

I wanted to let you know what a pleasure it has been to work with you in the dog training of our cocker spaniel. Cocker spaniels are not known for their ease of training but your taking the individual time that you took with Mrs. Beasley made all the difference and Mrs. Beasley is doing so well with her commands so much more than I ever imagined possible

Thanks again Sandy C.

Pamela is AWESOME! I would definitely recommend her, she’s very, very good at what she does, and even after the first visit we saw definitive, positive changes in our dog.
