After almost 30 years as a professional Architect, I was caught in the recession of 2008 and needed to rethink my future. The love I have for my pets (and all animals), and especially for my 2 schipperkes, prompted me to investigate a new career working with animals. Household pets seemed a logical choice so here I am....Trained Monkey was born.
I completed a year-long apprenticeship studying under Jeff Tinsley and Sound Animal Services, (
www.soundanimals.com) where I learned positive reinforcement training techniques and dog behavior. Once the year was over, I became one of his Dog Trainers at Sound Animal located in Interbay on 16th Ave. W. I am also certified in Pet First Aid and CPR with the American Safety & Health Institute.
