Science Matters helps pet professionals transform and grow their practice with the latest scientific research.
Science is essential for our profession—and for the dogs we care for.
It’s time to move beyond the basics and dive into current academic research in animal behavior.
Learn how to critically evaluate and apply this knowledge as professional R+ dog trainers, behavior consultants, and dog sports enthusiasts.
If you’re ready to elevate your dog training and behavior expertise through the power of science, let me guide you on that journey.
As a field, we’ve only begun to skim the surface of the science available to us.
Here are just a few things deeper study can make possible for you, your clients, and their dogs:
Craft more effective training plans
Loosen the grip of misconceptions that harm dogs
Reach behavior goals more quickly
Jump to the next level of competition performance
Blow clients’ minds—and get them on board
Form more compelling arguments for a budget proposal or policy change
Make real progress on problem prevention
The sky is the limit when we don’t limit ourselves to the basics

If you’re ready to take your dog training & behavior expertise to the next level through the power of science I’d like to be your guide on that journey.
I’m guessing you’re pretty serious about dog training and behavior and the science behind it all. I am, too. Geeky serious. So geeky serious I got my PhD in biopsychology, am a Certified Applied Animal Behaviorist, and have taught university courses about the science of behavior.
But my favorite thing is sharing science with my fellow R+ dog trainers—because when we add science to our craft we change dogs’ lives—and our own, too. I’m glad you’re here and I can’t wait to geek out with you.
If you’re serious about a professional, science-based approach to training, these courses are designed to put you at the top of your game.
Here’s a fun, easy way to keep up-to-date on the latest dog-related science & how you can use it in your training and behavior work.
Join me (and amazing guests) for live and recorded one-shots, or find out where I’m speaking. I’d love to geek out with you in person!
Are you an avid reader like me? I invite you to dive into my blog for science & training insights and plenty of geeky musings.
