Meet Our Behaviorist!

This is our behaviorist Tommy Ferreira. He has spent the last 15 years working with dogs in many different ways. Tommy started his career volunteering for several rescues to walk their more difficult dogs and work with their behaviors. Some of the rescues included “Rescue Dogs Match”, “After The Track” and “Mississauga Humane Society”. From there, he continued on his career by walking and training some of the most difficult dogs the GTA had to offer, taking on all dogs that others had given up on. He also spent quite some time in Michigan learning about pack dynamics and more in-depth about dog behavior from a behaviorist/trainer named Adrienne Crank on her farm. There, he learned about how dogs work with each other and can actually help one another become balanced. He has spent 3-4 years training staff at doggy daycare’s on how to work and be around large groups of dogs.

All training done by Tommy is based on building communication between owner and their furry friend. He truly believes in building relationships between dogs and their owner to curb poor behavior. Opening the lines of communication with your pet is essential to making things. There has never been a dog that is too big of a challenge for him and he really enjoys helping people who think there isn’t any hope left.
