Brian's Philosophy on Dog Behavorial Solutions

Brian was one of five children. From an early age, Brian was aware of his intuitive abilities with animals. He understood how to work with cats, dogs, hamsters and even opossums.

Brian walking a pack of dogs on the street. Brian has always had a passion for animal welfare. Throughout his childhood Brian rescued many sick and injured animals, often taking them to his neighborhood vet to see if they could be saved. He and his siblings once rescued an entire litter of orphaned kittens and bottle-fed them until they could eat on their own.

Brian graduated from Loyola Marymount with a degree in Communications. After college he began a career in the film industry as a Director of Photography working on music videos, commercials and feature films.

Brian began his training by completing an intensive "Shadow Program" taught by another trainer who had been mentored by Cesar Millan, star of National Geographic's popular series "The Dog Whisperer." He is the only trainer in the South Bay to have completed this program. Brian has gone on to attend advanced dog-training workshops by Brian Killcommons, Marc Goldberg and Martin Deeley. On a monthly basis, Brian works his cases with Cheri Lucas, protégée of Cesar Millan and frequent guest on The Dog Whisperer. Tenaya

Brian is dedicated to sharing his knowledge of dog psychology to dog owners so they can resolve their dog's issues once and for all. Brian's goal is to teach people how to communicate with their dogs by understanding how dogs think.

After working with Brian, clients learn how to tap into their intuitive side to better connect with their dogs.

Brian works with local rescue groups on a regular basis. He not only rehabilitates some of the rescues, but also works with foster parents to help them properly "raise" their fosters while they await their future homes. Brian is a member of the International Association of Canine Professionals, an organization that is dedicated to maintaining the highest standards of professionals as well as business practices.
