'About Us
Kailey Cullin Dip. CBST, Cert. PDTST
Professional Dog Trainer & Behavior Consultant
Karen Pryor Academy Graduate
Dogs have always been my passion; from family pets to volunteer work, I found dogs to be a fascination of mine from a young age. My career with dogs began in 2007, when I began working as a professional dog walker and pet sitter in Boston MA. In 2012, I realized my passion for positive reinforcement dog training, and inspired by my own Siberian husky Buck, I established Beyond Buck Dog Training in his name. Buck passed away in 2020 but his legacy lives on always. Today I reside in Sandwich, MA with my 3 Siberian huskies, 2 Pomeranians, 1 American Eskimo Dog and Chickens.
I founded Cape Cod Dog Center Inc. in 2014, an all in one dog center offering dog daycare, overnight accommodations, training, grooming and more! In 2020 I was able to design and build my dream dog center to share with the community of Mashpee. In 2024 I am excited to announce the launch of Cape Cod Dog Academy offering dog day school and learning intensive programs.
Combining my 20+ years of hands on experience with dog behavior and my pursuit of a cutting edge education in the field, I am thrilled to have a career in training and behavior consulting. I have completed a Diploma of Canine Behavior Science and Technology (Dip. CBST) as well as a Professional Dog Training Science and Technology Certificate (Cert.PDTST) from The Companion Animal Sciences Institute. I have also completed Karen Pryor Academy's Dog Trainer Professional and Puppy Start Right for Instructors Courses. I am Pet CPR and First Aid Certified through the American Red Cross and a Doggone Safe Be a Tree Presenter, educating children on safe interactions with dogs as well as dog bite prevention.
I am a member of the following professional organizations:
I have attended the following dog training and behavior seminars:
In April 2013 I was invited to speak to children about my career at Warren-Prescott K-8 School's annual "WP Connects with the Community Event". Hopefully I sparked the interest of some future canine professionals! In March 2015 I spoke to the Bournedale Elementary School about Sled dogs, mushing and the Iditarod! In 2017 I spoke at Quincy College to business students regarding successfully running a small business. If you are a school, group or event and are interested in a dog related presentation, please feel free to reach out to me! Topics of interest may include, bite prevention, career day, mushing / sled dog demonstrations and more!
My professional goals will always continue to grow, and my reading list is forever long, but I am determined to provide the best service possible to not just pet parents but do justice to their dogs as well. I strive to give only the most positive and productive advice I can, and pride myself on not using any aversive tools, short cuts or intrusive methods to get results. My services are force free and I take a science based behavior analysis approach, observing the environment to understand and modify behavior, rather than using un helpful labels or prejudice. You will find my training techniques highly effective and efficient as you see your dog's behavior transform! I hope to expand other pet parents' bonds with their dogs as training has for me and my dogs. Thank you for your support!
