Founder / Lead trainer
Ashley bauscher
Ashley Bauscher, a Colorado native, has over 9 years of expertise in Dog Psychology and Pack Management, specializing in a wide range of breeds, temperaments, and behavioral backgrounds.
As one of New Zealand’s few dog trainers whose philosophy is rooted in dog psychology, Ashley offers an advanced, intuitive approach to dog training that surpases basic obedience training.
As the founder of the Full Moon methods, she equips owners with the tools needed to create lasting success all within a supportive and kind space.
“Ashley is incredibly knowledgeable about dogs behavior and was able to give us the tools to help our dog, who is now very well on the way to be non reactive. Her ability to train dogs (and humans) in such a calm and easy environment made our sessions not only productive, but also fun and enjoyable. We cannot recommend Full Moon Dog Psychology enough!”

Our History
Full Moon Dog Psychology was established in 2020 in beautiful Queenstown, New Zealand by Dog Psychologist Ashley Bauscher. After moving from her home state of Colorado, Ashley was infatuated with the openness of New Zealand’s people and landscapes. Driven by a desire to extend her services to these communities, she founded Full Moon Dog Psychology. Since its inception, Full Moon has provided dedicated dog trainings to families all throughout the Otago region, including Glenorchy, Cromwell, Kingston, Roxburgh, Lawrence, and Wanaka. Ashley is beyond excited to continue to bring high quality Dog training to all of Aotearoa.
