Heart of Feathers Education and Training, LLC: Sheila Blanchette ’03
Heart of Feathers Education, LLC, is a pet bird consulting service to assist with what could be considered "undesired behaviors." Heart of Feathers Education & Training for companion birds is a non-judgmental zone. We offer assistance for when you have questions, need advice, or need a consult on any companion bird, from African Gray to Zebra Finch. Every year people buy, adopt, or receive a companion bird and every year birds are rehomed due to behavior issues related to biting, plucking, or screaming. As a Certified Parrot Behavior Consultant/Trainer, the goal is to assist people with birds to build trust through education, science, and understanding. As we understand the need for dog trainers for puppies and dogs with behavior issues, this same concept is needed for birds. This New Hampshire-based business has been around for five years and is connected with local rescues.
