Introduction

My degree is in psychology, Beginning in the 80's I was designing token economy systems in the mental health system. I began clicker training when my son wanted a big dog and correction training was not an option.

How long have you been training professionally?

I began training for Petco in '03. I have gone through three iterations of "Petco Training" and the current one is now (finally) using clicker and marker words (Yeah!). I am currently a mentor for Petco helping to train new dog trainers. So far I have trained eight.

  • High Peter:

    What is the cost for your ten class dog training program in Canton? If a class is missed could we still take the Canine Good Citizen evaluation?

  • Hi Peter,
    Just curious if you would ever consider holding a meeting on Saturday on the North Shore? Maybe Coco Keys Resort Hotel in Danvers? Or someplace even just a tad north of Boston?

  • Hi Peter! Thank you for the warm welcome. what a pleasure. I am SO bummed I can't make it tonight.. Thursday nights are not good for me usually, because I teach drop-in classes that night. I will absolutely make it to the next one if at all possible! My New England Bully Breed Club is on facebook: http://www.facebook.com/NEBBC and also on meetup, which probably would give you the best idea of what we're all about: http://www.meetup.com/new-england-bul.... Can't wait to meet you.

  • Hi, Peter! Thanks for the note!

    We lost Brandy to auto-immune disease in October. It happened pretty suddenly -- she was fine one Sunday (she'd been feeling really well on a liver-and-kidney-supportive diet) and we had to put her to sleep the next Sunday. Thank Dog for Dr. Harrington, who met us at RAH at 11:30 Sunday PM to help her on her way....

    I hope to make the December meeting. I downloaded the minutes. One of the topics is that of a website -- which I can probably help with. :-)

  • Hi, Mondays will generally work better than Tues. through Sept. After that most days are fine. I have a fairly flexible schedule but divide time with husband's rotating schedule and dealing with a rental roperty as well as the dog business so it varies.
