Bob Ryder is a Certified Separation Anxiety Trainer (CSAT) who specializes in separation anxiety training. Because training for SA is done virtually, he can help clients from all over. His methods are based in the science of classical conditioning, using gentle desensitization to help your dog become comfortable when left alone. Bob believes that no pain, fear, or force is ever necessary when working with animals. He is also a member of the Shock Free Coalition and the Pet Professional Guild.
