San Diego Dog Trainers

While receiving an exotic animal education and training degree from Moorpark College, Joel Beckman devoted several years to training, caring for and performing with big cats, monkeys, camels, birds and many other exotics. At this one of a kind animal program Joel learned about conservation, educating the public, veterinary practices, proper cleaning procedures, animal ethics, entertainment and of course animal training. This experience led to Joel’s next position as a Killer Whale trainer at a world famous theme park in San Diego, California. This job not only allowed Joel to train and perform with Killer Whales, but it's also where Joel met the love of his life. Joel uses positive reinforcement training. This is the preferred method for most marine mammal trainers, big cat trainers, therapy dog trainers, agility trainers, search and rescue trainers and many other animal training professionals.
