About Chitra Walmsley Positive Dog Training
Chitra was born and raised in the United Kingdom and has always had a passion for animals. When her husband’s job took her to California, she took the opportunity to join a well known dog training franchise, where she worked her way up to head trainer and became a certified AKC Canine Good Citizen Evaluator and a Nationally Certified Dog Trainer through the Animal Behavior College. On moving to Boston, she set up her own business as a professional dog trainer. She continued her professional development at the Victoria Stilwell Academy for Dog Training and Behavior, where she graduated in July 2020.
Let Chitra teach you how to communicate with your dog to develop a happy and enriching life together, positively.
With positive reinforcement force-free training, both you and your dog will be happier and enjoy each others company more. Based on modern day behavioral science, positive reinforcement training works by triggering your dog's mind to “think” about what you are asking them to do. Dogs are extremely intelligent animals and by using positive reinforcement in the beginning to lure and shape their behaviors, you not only get the results you want but also build a strong bond of trust and loyalty between you and your dog.
