Billie Groom has been a canine behavioral consultant and “dogologist” for over 30 years. Looking beyond training methodology, she gets to the core of behavior through understanding canine emotions. Working with her methods of changing how dogs perceive reality, and changing their decisions about how they react to common stressors, she has been able to help thousands of rescue dogs in many countries.
As the CEO and founder of the Institute of Canine Psychotherapy she is now dedicated to teaching her methods online with a team of researchers, scientists, and holistic veterinarians. Her goal is to reduce behavioral euthanasia and returns of dogs to shelters by transforming behavior so that humans and dogs can understand each other better and share more harmonious lives.
