Having devoted 34 years of his life to the research, development and education of working dogs, this paired with extensive work in the area of animal welfare, Kris has now expanded his professional horizons by sharing his knowledge with the community as a consultant for a range of government agencies and animal welfare groups.
For the past three decades, Kris has travelled extensively gaining valuable knowledge and skills around the globe from the world’s best International trainers, breeders and animal behaviourists. As a result of his enthusiasm and hunger for knowledge, Kris has acquired a unique an in-depth understanding of raising, developing and training dogs for a variety of purposes.
Through the skills and successes he has achieved, Kris has gained a sound understanding of what motivates animals to behave the way they do, and just as importantly, how to apply this knowledge to achieve specialised goals. Kris currently shares this knowledge by operating both National and International training programs, seminars and workshops, each individually tailored to meet the needs of the general community, other trainers and government agencies globally.
Kris has implemented a variety of learning systems ranging from basic family obedience, to the most demanding Schutzhund, IPO, Police, Prison and Professional Security animals. He is committed to breaching barriers that exist for dogs and dog welfare in our community. Kris believes that consultation with Animal welfare groups will truly extend this commitment.
