Creating peaceful homes for owners and pets
My philosophy
Behavior issues are one of the top reasons why pets are surrendered to animal shelters. My goal is to keep more animals in their homes by providing behavioral help through behavior modification. I only use positive reinforcement-based methods that are proven to improve problem behaviors. I am firmly against using punishment-based methods because they are scientifically proven to create and/or worsen behavior problems and these aversive methods do nothing to solve the root cause of the behavior.
