Who is ULI?

Hi, it's lovely seeing you here!
 You may be wondering who I am, what I do, and most importantly:
if you can trust me with your furbaby!

I have been training dogs since 2017 and I have been very lucky to learn
from some of the best trainers and behaviour analysts in the world.
 
Uli (in italian it's short for "Ulysses") was my dog and the wise teacher that started it all.
I fell in love with Applied Behaviour Analysis and dogs' emotions - as well as how behaviour works - exactly thanks to him
and I can see a little bit of him in every pup I meet.

When you start studying the Science of Behaviour you understand that it's all much more complex than
just "showing them who is boss."
If you have been taught that way, I am even happier to meet you, because... that is
how I had been taught with my precious Uli, too, before I started studying and realising
there were more in-depth options and I'd love to share these with you.

Why do we do what we do?
What do we get (or get away from) by performing that behaviour?

When we know better, we do better.

I love every animal: dogs, cats, (I am still working on my spiders phobia...)
