About Me

My photo
John Heffernan
I am a fledgling dog trainer. We rescued Wyatt at the age of 1 about 3 years ago. We adopted Patriot after that to help with Wyatt's separation anxiety (now cured). I am the technology teacher at a local elementary school having previously worked as a software engineer and an 3rd grade elementary school teacher. My wife and I live in a small rural town in Western Massachusetts. Our back yard is about 6000 acres of woods. I enjoy running in the woods with the dogs, dog training, messing around with computers and playing bluegrass music. I have a small educational technology consulting business on the side specializing in web based educational databases, and distance learning course development.
