I became interested in dog training in 2003 after rescuing a 10-month-old Australian Shepherd/Blue Heeler/Lab mix named Ozzy. After reading several books on dog training and behavior, I became intrigued by assistance dogs and how they can be trained to help people. I sought out a local service-dog organization and became a trainer's apprentice. Eventually I served as that organization's Development Director, while still assisting with their service dog, hearing dog, therapy dog, and pet obedience efforts.
In 2010, I obtained certification as a Karen Pryor Academy Certified Training Partner (KPA-CTP), learning positive, quick, and effective reward-based methods to modifying behavior. I continue to proactively enhance my understanding of dogs and dog behavior through lots of reading and educational seminars and conferences.
