I'm a certified professional reward based dog trainer and certified trauma responder with over 30 years experience in the animal care field. I provide Simple Solutions for folks struggling to help their dog with behavior problems as well as therapy dog and service dog training. After responding to a high school shooting in 1998 with my therapy dog, I created and developed training curriculum for Animal Assisted Crisis Response (AACR) and implemented programs using therapy dogs to reach at-risk populations and those in crisis. 4 trained K9 teams responded to the Word Trade Center after 9/11. Today there are over 400 certified teams nationwide. I am based in Barrington, NH
