Description

I am an animal behaviorist. Every day I work with animals, especially dogs, helping them and their owners with special issues such as aggression, separation anxiety, fear, disabilities and training problems. My involvement with animals started at an early age where I grew up with a family who bred and trained dogs. Through raising a variety of animal species my training skills were honed. I studied positive motivational techniques working with marine mammals and parrots. For the past 25 years I have focused on dogs and have developed a unique training theory that combines a dog’s natural instinct with learning. Based on my knowledge and experience I have founded two companies: Dog Gone Smart, a state-of- the art canine center which offers outstanding care and service to dogs and their owners including boarding, training, day care, swimming and grooming; and Nano Pet Products, a global marketer of innovative canine, equine and feline products. My involvement in these two companies enables me to meet dog people all over the world, to share in their experiences and to keep up with the latest pet products available. I have had regular appearances on radio and television. My television appearances include Fox News and Martha Stewart’s “Whatever with Alexis and Jennifer” show on the Hallmark Channel. My radio spots include the Martha Stewart radio channel and Scott and Todd on the Morning. I am becoming known as the “Trainer to the stars!”

I am all about dogs and want to share my passion and love for them with you.

You know when you see someone yawn, and you can’t help but yawn, too? Well, yawns are also contagious for dogs! Dogs will yawn sympathetically with both humans and other dogs.

Dobermans are commonly subjected to ear-cropping surgery for cosmetic purposes and to conform to breed standards set by kennel clubs. The procedure involves removing part of the ear flap to give it a pointed shape. Some people believe that cropping makes Dobermans appear more intimidating or aggressive.

However, the procedure is controversial and has been banned in some countries due to concerns over animal welfare.

Somebody is turning two!

Kids and dogs are great together. But if they’re safe. Here’s a few tips to keep the holidays happy and safe. #dogtrainingtips #dogtrainingadvice #dogtraining #caninekid #caninemaster #dogs #dogtraining101

Teaching your dog “go to bed” is easy and so useful.

Treat time!

Mystic is scared of stairs without backs. Sometimes the only way to get over a fear is patience. And treats.

Halloween brings a flurry of activity with visitors arriving at the door, and too many strangers coming and going. While opening the door for guests, be sure that your dog doesn’t dart outside. A cracked door while you hand out another Butterfinger can look like the perfect escape route to an unsettled pup. Always make sure your pet is wearing proper identification. If he or she does escape, a collar with ID tags and/or a microchip can help make a scary situation turn into a horror story. For many families, Halloween is the unofficial start of the holiday season. Let’s start it off as happily and safely as we can.
