Caden Cristopher , Faculty (Foundations, Electives)
Main info
Caden (he/they), CCUI, is a dog trainer, writer and traveler currently based in Mexico and South America. He has been fond of dogs of all sizes, shapes and personalities for as long as he can think—especially the so-called difficult ones. Figuring out how to approach each dog as a unique individual is one of Caden's greatest passions. His days are spent learning about construction, reading about the history of capitalism and and teaching pet dog manners and life skills to human and canine clients. Caden's German-language puppy book "Nur Mut!" was released in 2017 under the name Chrissi Schranz, followed by the recall book "Komm zu mir!" in 2018. Caden loves working with people and dogs, and training, playing and hiking with Malinois Game and Border Collie Chai. His podcast is "Our One Wild and Precious Lives (and Our Dogs)" and his blog can be found on https://adventuredogsanarchy.com/ .
Pronouns: Caden goes by he/they, but feels the need to add that he never met a pronoun he truly liked. In an ideal world, he'd have the option to opt out of the concept of gender altogether: N/A.
