Dog training in Cumberland, Maine

As President of Canine Behavior Counseling, I help dog owners stop aggression toward people, prevent bites, and build predictable, safe behavior using proven, humane training methods. My work is grounded in clarity, compassion, and practical guidance that supports safer homes and stronger communities. Having owned and rehabilitated thousands of territorial dogs with bite histories, I am uniquely qualified to conduct Bite Risk Assessments that identify the true root causes of behavior. As a Certified Dog Behavior Consultant (IAABC) and Certified CARAT Assessor, I help owners understand their dog’s temperament, sensitivities, and social needs to guide effective, ethical training decisions.
