Debby's Dog Training Consulting - Certified Dog Trainer - Flushing, NY

Verified Member since Apr 2023 Verified checkmark

I am Debby, a Certified Behavioral Canine Consultant.

My interest in dog behavior and training evolved over years of experience with pet dogs, shelter dogs, some working dogs, & many other species of canines in wildlife sanctuaries and rescues. I have been training animals in various contexts for over 15 years and enjoy the challenge of learning more every day. Of particular interest to me are dogs with behavioral issues including various forms of aggression, rowdy ill-mannered dogs, and also those with underlying fear and anxiety. Understanding their genetic influence as well as their life experiences so far is valuable in helping them fit into their home while having the best quality of life.

I offer private one on one sessions for basic manners and training as well as for behavioral modification. Additionally, I offer group classes, workshops, and consultations for facilities wanting to educate their staff and clients. Common topics of interest are body language, advanced handling skills, training exercises, socialization practices, and dog playgroup interactions.
