Meet the Owner: Chris Park
My name is Chris Parkiotis, and I am a professional K9 trainer based in Boston, MA. With over 25 years of experience, I specialize in canine behavior and obedience training. I believe in building deep and effective communication between owners and their dogs by focusing on mental engagement rather than just physical control.
