Currently I work as a part time field instructor for Paws with a Cause, a National Assistance dog program which provides Assistance dogs, Hearing ear dogs and Seizure response dogs to people in need.

Previously I worked as a Seeing Eye dog instructor, Pilot dog guide dog instructor and Military Police dog trainer/instructor for the U.S. Marines. I have trained and handled dogs overseas and throughout the Nation for over 31 years. Additionally I am an active Schutzhund trainer/competitor, having placed in the top five at regional and national events. I have trained dogs for the television series Law and Order and the major motion pictures, Body of Lies and Law Abiding Citizen.

From the most common problems, to the most extreme issues, I have actively dealt with them drawing upon my wealth of real and practical experience.

My goal with clients is to help them with the most practical, safe and effective program. I realized many years ago that the key to most problems is finding a solution that is effective and attainable for both dog and owner.

The training programs are usually conducted in your home or problem area. Each program is tailored to work with your dogs strength. I strive to teach very clear communication, the desire is to have a dog clearly understand the difference between right and wrong, I have found that vague or poorly communicated ideas generally leads to problems 

I believe in my methods and trust my experience is unmatched. I have been fortunate to have worked for some of the most respected and world renowned organizations in the United States, These programs are highly competitive and select their trainers based on desire and ability. I did not pay but was selected based on my merit.

I realize there is a wealth of information and many trainers, selecting the right one can be confusing, I would be happy to answer any questions and meet with you for a home evaluation. 

My service area is up to one hour from the Flemington/Lambertville NJ
