Alysha Marie Verba

Ally Verba, CPDT-KA CSAT FFCT​I started my journey in the Animal Welfare and Behavior industry back in 2010. Soon after starting my journey I realized animal behavior was a strong passion of mine, and I enrolled in the Dog Training Internship Academy led by a world renowned Dog Trainer, Janis Bradley. Once I completed my internship I continued on to receive my CPDT-KA (Certified Professional Dog Trainer- Knowledge Assessed) Certificate, became a Certified Separation Anxiety Trainer, and completed training to become a Fear Free Certified Animal Trainer. I have a strong desire to forever expand my knowledge of animal welfare + behavior and have since enrolled in a myriad of continued education including Susan Friedman’s Living and Learning with Animals Seminar, the IAABC- Shelter Dog Behavior mentorship, CATCH Canine Trainers Academy, DogTec Academy, Amy Cook’s “The Play Way,” and I am also a member of the Association of Professional Dog Trainers. My extensive education background has allowed me the opportunity to work with the Applied Animal Behavior and Welfare Lab at Virginia Tech, take on a key role as Behavior Supervisor at Asheville Humane Society, as part of the Behavior Team at Contra Costa Animal Services, as a Behavior Team member and Class Instructor with the East Bay SPCA, and alongside multiple other rescues including Woof Meow Rescue, Family Dog Rescue, and Muttville Senior Dog Rescue.

I volunteer at the Pima Animal Care Center in Tucson AZ.I do general dog walking as well as working with the TopDogs Team to help the behaviorally challenged dogs. As a group we work with the problematic dogs, but more importantly we train other volunteers to train the shelter dogs, with the hopes of making the dogs more adoptable.I also work with adopters and fosters to help their newly adopted/fostered dogs acclimate to life in a home away from the shelter. This process can be challenging for some dogs as well as for the adopters/fosters.I have started a private Foundation to offer free training for dogs fostered or adopted from Pima Animal Care Center, our county shelter.
