Lucinda earned her MSc. and Certification as a Behaviourist at the University of Guelph, Ontario Veterinary College and her BSc  in Psychology at York University.  This focus on the sci­ence of behav­iour fur­thers her under­stand­ing of how envi­ron­ment and tem­pera­ment affect each dog’s development.
