SCOTT SHANLEY
OWNER/HEAD TRAINER
BFAR's In house trainer in Pembroke
Scott Shanley from Humarock Shepherds brings the very best in professional obedience training. With over 25 years of experience, you can be confident that you’ll be getting the very best instruction for you and your dog. Scott's focus is on creating respectful relationships between people and the animals that enrich our lives so much.
Scott went to school in 1996 at K9 Behavior and Training at National K-9 School where they granted him a Certified Master Trainer Certificate. From there, he started his own one on one training for basic and advanced obedience for clients while personally he trained in obedience and protection.
In 2014, Scott started raising European working line German Shepherds for his breeding program. He only did OB until joining a PSA group in 2016. Here he attained the first certificate in sport training with what they call a PDC. The dog would be challenged and tested in obedience and protection. Scott still does some personal protection work with his own dogs at times, but his main job today is training and rehabilitation of dogs.
From Scott:
The number of dogs out there needing to be changed is unnerving. If I can make a difference in a pup's life and also educate their owners to the best of my ability, then my work is changing lives.
My motto. “Training isn’t a session. It’s a way of life”
Training is available for all breeds and ages of dogs.
Dog Training is a never-ending process of evolving.

ALEX THOMPSON
OWNER
What started out as a deep passion of animal welfare and a hobby of learning behavior and training, Alex became enamored with the idea of training dogs. Through working at various daycare centers, dog walking companies and consuming the knowledge of giants in the industry, he took the steps necessary to become a certified dog trainer through CATCH Canine Trainers Academy. While that was enough to call himself a dog trainer, he continues to educate himself through different certification courses, seminars, online content, and coaching from those that came before him.
