The trainer

He began his professional career in 2004 in veterinary hospitals, kennels and animal shelters, and in 2006 started work as a marine mammal trainer, later continuing at aquariums. After more than five years with marine mammals he returned to his home state and opened NH Dog Training in 2013. He lives in Milford.
