Episode 15 – Lisa Giesick

Lisa Giesick is the founder and owner of Ohana Pet Training on Maui and has worked with animals since 1983 and in the animal welfare field for 16 years. She has previously worked as an animal control officer, a humane investigator, educator, and behavior counselor. Lisa believes that most behavior problems are caused by a lack of communication as humans and dogs don’t speak the same language. Dog training is about building a relationship and she encourages people to learn to understand their dogs and teach their dogs to understand them through positive reinforcement techniques.
