I have been involved in dog training and behavior modification for more than 10 years.I have studied Psychology and Ethology. For 5 years I have also been a volunteering Member of Guide Dogs for the Blind on and off their campus, with my most recent position being the co-leader to a local Puppy Raising Club, called Mission: Pawsible in Boise, ID. Further I have raised a miniature poodle as a trial breed for Dogs for Diabetics, and advised in the owner training of an autism assistance dog.
In fall 2013 Alina I have graduated from the Karen Pryor Academy where I manifested my long history of positive reinforcement animal training.
