Paisley Lunchick RVT, KPA-CTP

Paisley is a Registered Veterinary Technician and Karen Pryor Academy Certified Training Partner. She is also Low Stress Handling Certified, and a Fear Free Elite Certified Professional and Trainer. Paisley’s interest in animal training began when working with pets in the veterinary hospital. This lead her down a path of studying animal behavior, and learning as much as possible to help patients become more relaxed with general procedures such as ear cleanings, blood draws, and nail trims. Helping pets in the hospital quickly lead to an interest in helping pets in the home. Paisley is the founder of Pinnacle Pet Training, LLC and lives in Raleigh, NC with her 3 dogs, 3 cats, fish, and human family members.
