Gail Fisher - With over 15 years experience as a Professional Groomer, and over 30 years experience as a Professional Dog Trainer and Behaviorist, Gail is known as "the trainer's trainer." Named by Our Dogs Magazine (England) as one of the top five lecturers internationally on dog behavior, Gail designed and taught the first University course for Obedience Instructors – a 2-year program at the University of NH, as well as courses a course for Dog Breeders. She brings her philosophy about dog/owner relationships and dog/groomer relationships to her teaching position with All Dogs Academy. Her perspective and skills for developing a cooperative relationship with the dogs we groom, and the importance of groomers recognizing, understanding and appreciating dog behavior and communication make our Grooming Academy unique. Kimberly Duclos – Director of Student Training and groomer at All Dogs Gym & Inn. With over 25 years experience, Kim’s credentials as a groomer and a teacher are unparalleled. A graduate of the prestigious New York School of Dog Grooming, she has never stopped expanding her skills as a groomer, dog advocate and teacher. Kim has attended seminars and classes with the best groomers in the country. But it is her philosophy as well as her knowledge and experience that make her such a gifted teacher. As Kim says, “With years of observing dog behavior and temperament, I’ve developed an approach of ‘cooperation’ between dogs and the grooming process. I have also seen the need for proper instruction and care for the dog’s view that is sadly missing in many groomers’ educations. I am able to share my love of grooming, my experience, skills and knowledge with the students at All Dogs Academy.”
