Teaching and sharing my skills with animals and their people is positively reinforcing.
Why Hire A Karen Pryor Trainer?
Positive solutions and peace of mind. Dog training is an unregulated industry– anyone can call themselves a dog trainer. Hiring a KPA-CTP gives you the assurance that you and your dog is trained by a professional who has accomplished one of the most intensive training programs available, and who is committed to only humane, evidence based training techniques
Animal behavior science is exciting and always changing.
