About the Presenter
Dogs and people have always fascinated Colleen Pelar. When she was a dog trainer, her favorite part of the job wasn’t teaching the dog, but improving the relationship between dogs and their people. Both are social species, hard-wired to connect, and she loved offering simple, practical tips for building those connections. With over 25 years of dog training, Colleen has also spoken at scores of veterinary and training conferences, and wrote three books to help parents and children have successful relationships with their dogs. After losing her joy for her work, Colleen restored that spark by studying strategies for combating burnout and compassion fatigue and earning her certifications as a professional certified coach (PCC), master NLP practitioner, applied positive psychology practitioner, and resilience skills trainer. Her new-found knowledge led her in a new direction: sharing effective, science-based tools that help veterinary and animal behavior professionals feel valued, supported, and energized.
