Founder & Lead Trainer | Urban Ruffneck K9 Training

Loreanne Sistrunk Cowan is the heart and grit behind Urban Ruffneck K9 Training, a premier choice for dog training in Edmond, OK. A proud member of the Cherokee Nation and a lifelong animal lover, Loreanne’s roots run deep in the Oklahoma red dirt. Growing up on a small, working farm, she raised everything from goats and chickens to hogs and hound pups—learning firsthand the power of trust, structure, and the unspoken bond between animals and humans. This early connection shaped her lifelong devotion to understanding behavior, building trust, and communicating across species, essential skills for tackling dog anxiety.

Loreanne's animal husbandry skills have only grown stronger over the years! Before stepping into professional dog training, she spent years as a veterinary technician and running her successful pet sitting business. This experience in both animal health and home care gave her a deeper understanding of canine behavior, stress triggers, and the emotional needs of dogs both at home and in the community.

Grizzmo, Loreanne’s trusted training partner, wasn’t always the calm and confident dog clients know today. Adopted as a seven-month-old rescue, he struggled with severe anxiety after leaving his quiet country foster for the buzz of Oklahoma City. Grizzmo needed the same guidance that Loreanne now offers through her in-home dog training and structured sessions. Through steady structure, patient leadership, and real-world exposure, she helped him transform. Today, Grizzmo plays an active role in training sessions, pack walks, and community outings—modeling calm, collected behavior and helping other dogs learn to navigate the world with confidence. He’s living proof that a calm dog isn’t born—they’re built.

Today, Loreanne brings all of that knowledge into every session—offering balanced, fear-free dog training rooted in real-life experience. With a focus on behavior modification and loose leash walking, she has helped over 300 families in Oklahoma address reactivity, anxiety, and leash chaos with calm, structured leadership and unmatched empathy.

Clients know her for her bold honesty, deep compassion, and unwavering dedication to helping both ends of the leash succeed. She doesn’t just train dogs—she coaches people, builds trust, and creates lasting transformation. Whether you’re looking for puppy training in OKC or the best private dog trainer, Loreanne’s here to help you build it.
