FAQs
Why hire a Karen Pryor academy Certified Trainer?
The dog training and walking industry is unregulated - anyone can call themselves a dog trainer or professional walker. Hiring a KPA CTP assures your dog is trained/walked by a professional dog trainer who has demonstrated a high level of technical knowledge and hands on skills both training canines and teaching people. It also ensures they are committed to only humane, science-based training techniques.
