ANDERS HALLGREN http://www.andershallgren.se/en/ Anders Hallgren was born in Stockholm, Sweden in 1940. He was examined 1971 as a psychologist, MSc, at the University of Stockholm, Sweden. He is considered to be the first dog psychologist in the world. This is how he describes his work: He has been practicing as a trainer and psychologist for dogs for more than 40 years. He has conducted a lot of studies about the behavior of dogs and of the human-animal bond. And also, among other things, elaborated a stress analysis and a special pain analysis, which are considered efficient tools in the mapping of causes behind problematic behavior in dogs. All training is within the framework of a non-violent ideology. Anders specialties are aggression – causes and cures, post-traumatic stress disorders in dogs, and problem behavior in general. Anders has written 29 books and booklets about dog behavior (some of which have been published in other countries) and numerous articles for magazines, participated in several radio and TV programs, given many lectures worldwide and trained several thousands of dogs with problematic behavior. Anders was the first in the world to train dogs to detect mould in buildings, which today is somewhat of an industry in Scandinavia. He was also assigned to start a program for educating service dogs for disabled people, which is now effectively developing. In 2000 he introduced smoke alarm training for dogs and the interest continues to grow for this type of training in several countries.
