I began dog training in 1989.
- I became a professional dog trainer in June of 2004.
- For about 5 years, I showed my Shetland Sheepdog mix and Border Collie mix in obedience and showmanship in 4-H.
- I received a Bachelor’s degree with a major in psychology (a specific concentration in animal learning) and a minor in zoology at Ohio Wesleyan University.
- I trained numerous exotic animals and performed in educational shows at three public zoos.
- I absorb myself in a gambit of materials (books, seminars, videos, etc.) on reward-based training.
- Training is my hobby; therefore, it is easy for me to keep pertinent with new training methods.
- I am a member of the Association of Pet Dog Trainers (APDT), an international organization supporting humane dog training.
- I regularly consult with numerous APDT colleagues.
- I am looking forward to many more years of great training relationships with dogs and their owners! Woof Woof!
