Dog Parks and Daycares: Pros and Cons
Kerry from Howl School for Dogs is a certified dog trainer based in London, England, a member of the APDT and also a practising Nichiren Buddhist, working to promote ethical and compassionate methods of dog training and behaviour modification in the UK and beyond.
Kerry works 1:1 with dogs and their guardians, as well as groups – and is available for online sessions with anyone across the globe, with dogs of any age or background. She has a particular fondness for dogs struggling with reactivity and, with her Yorkie mix Norma, is on a mission to help people learn to recognise that small dogs are valid and have needs too! Once a month Kerry hosts an Instagram Live designed to share reward based methods of training and get the education out there to people who perhaps can’t afford to work with a professional, or for whatever reason won’t.
