Teacher expertise and credentials
I have had dogs my whole life, with lots of experience taking care of them. It's my passion to learn everything I can about their care. In my classes, I only teach positive reinforcement and relationship-based training. I'm working towards getting certified as a personal dog trainer. I have a website www.pawsandlearn.com where I write articles about different aspects of dog care I'm researching. Please feel free to reach out to me with any questions! Reviews
