Expertise

I can help primarily with dog potty training, and also with some basic training and behavior issues. I offer practical solutions to common problems. When I come across a dog related topic I am not personally familiar with, I diligently research it so that I am continually learning more about our furry friends.

Experience in the area

I am a dog enthusiast doing ongoing research on many dog training basics and some behavior issues. I actively work with my dogs and others to test various solutions, so I have hands-on experience in basic dog training. I developed a dog/puppy training bell and I receive feedback from customers.

Organizations

Avid supporter of the ASPCA and any animal-friendly organization. Also a member of Girl Scouts of America.

Education/Credentials

My dog-related education is not formal, but self taught by way of reading, networking and testing techniques on various dogs. I also have a related blog at http://blog.gizmo2wizmo.com/
