Meet the Trainer

Dogs have always been a part of the life of Glen Hatchell, our Bow Wow Buddies Certified Trainer.  Currently, he lives with Hamell and a foster named Heidi. 
 
Since he doesn't have that magical farm where he could adopt every needy animal, Glen spends a lot of time at the Humane Society of Tampa Bay.  Glen teaches dog handling and body language classes for HSTB.  In 2012, new classes will address basic obedience training for shelter dogs.

The Trainer’s Training

Bow Wow Behavior Buddies training started with an intense 4-week submersion into the world of becoming a dog trainer.  Taught by two nationally renowned dog trainers with instructor Aimee Sadler teaching the scientific principles and Nick Fisher bringing his successful pack psychology to modify behavior, these two well-known figures lend their expertise to the training efforts. 

To become certified under the Bow Wow Behavior Buddies program, new dog trainers learn a multitude of training tools: clickers, to dog packs, to electronic collars and everything in between.  Since Behavior Buddies Dog Trainers are not taught a specific method they are equipped to handle a myriad of behavior issues - an area some method-based trainers fall flat.
