Training Philosophy
Every dog should have the opportunity to learn basic obedience with their person. A dog given ample opportunity to learn obedience gains confidence, patience, and self-control, and has the tools needed to be a life-long family member. I am a certified Canine Good Citizen Evaluator, AKC Star Puppy Evaluator, and

Therapy Dog International Evaluator. I am also a certified member of the National Association of Dog Obedience Instructors (NADOI). I am a member of Westmoreland County Obedience Training Club, Greater Pittsburgh Golden Retriever Club,Three Rivers Shetland Sheepdog Club, and Loyalhanna Agility Club. I have been training dogs for 30 years, competing for 20 years, and teaching various dog obedience classes for over 10 years

Prerequisites:Dogs should have completed the Foundations of Obedience I, or have equivalent skills.
