Ben has loved dogs throughout his life. That interest grew into a career working with dogs of different breeds and sizes, with a focus on helping owners understand and communicate with their companions.
His attention to detail carries into every lesson. Whether he’s working on obedience or a behavior concern, Ben wants owners to understand the training and feel ready to continue practicing at home.
Ben has trained and learned from national and world champions in dog sports. He continues to attend seminars and workshops to expand his knowledge and develop his skills.
He is a certified NePoPo® Gold Student, with experience in behavior modification, sport work, pet training, and service dog training.
UNDERSTAND THE DOG
Ben considers the dog’s behavior and the owner’s goals when deciding what to work on during training.
INVOLVE THE OWNER
Understanding the methods matters. Ben explains the techniques so owners can use them in everyday situations.
KEEP PRACTICING
Training continues beyond a lesson. Owners learn how to reinforce skills and make practice part of their routine.
STAY CONNECTED
Board and train and in-home programs include lifetime follow-up support for questions and guidance after training.
