Kuleana Pets: Private Training and Group Classes for Puppies, Dogs, and Cats in the Helsinki Metropolitan Area
Meet Eliza!
Meet Eliza!
Eliza has accrued a wealth of experience and knowledge in dog training. After completing her studies at the University of Oxford in Animal Behaviour, Eliza continued to expand her education, including attending the prestigious Karen Pryor Academy and becoming a Certified Training Partner (KPA-CTP), as well as completing the master course in Aggression in Dogs with Michael Shikashio. Her experience also extends to guide and service dog training at reputable schools such as OpasKoiraKoulu and DISA.
Eliza’s personal experience with her own dogs and cats with various behavioral issues inspired her to pursue her professional training in 2015. She was always searching for the best care and help for her animal family and when she was unsatisfied with what was available to her, she chose to pursue her own education in the field of training.
Eliza’s unwavering passion for working with animals is evident in every aspect of her work, and she remains dedicated to helping pet owners develop a strong and loving bond with their furry companions.
