He truly cares about the dogs and handlers he interacts with. He is patient and always willing to explain to the handler why he is using certain training techniques to elicit certain behaviors from the dog. I greatly appreciated this because I was seeking a true understanding of why we were doing certain things. I learned a lot from Brandon and other CCU staff.
