Hedy Starr is a dog trainer and dog behavior consultant.

In this episode we talk about the difference between dog training and when a behaviorist is needed, what a behavior consultant is, and Hedy describes techniques and processes she uses. There's plenty of Service Dog discussion, laws and regulations around emotional support dogs.

Hedy explains why she is enjoying scent and nose work a lot more these days than dealing with the issues around service dogs. She talks about dog aggression and takes it down to the psychology of the the dog, their environment and handlers.

Hedy is more than just a dog trainer. She is well versed about the business side of service and working dogs, dogs for law enforcement, understanding it not only professionally but as a handler of herself.
