The Training & Behavior Desk handles behavior, training, and harness/collar gear coverage. We are not certified trainers ourselves — we summarize and contextualize the work of credentialed researchers and certified trainers, and we cite them. Where guidance touches on safety or on anything clinical (harness fit on small breeds, separation anxiety, sudden behaviour change), we say plainly that it warrants a qualified professional and point you there rather than improvising an answer.
