All Breed Private In Home Dog Training - New Bern, NC

Member since Jan 2018

Weller Kennels has been training dogs of all breeds,and mixed breeds, for 40 years. Weller Kennels started in 1974 in Williamston,NC. We welcome your questions of any kind, none are silly questions.

In April 2003, John Weller and Janet Herbert were married making a merge of two kennel facilities. Janet has been breeding and raising retrievers as Blue Star Kennel on Maryland's Eastern Shore since 1988 with her quality working chocolate puppies going to international homes as far as Europe and Alaska. She has successfully competed in both NAHRA and AKC Hunt Tests titling a number of her chocolates. Over the years, she has trained numerous hunting dogs, but found a niche with her patience and persistence in starting out youngsters in their training program whether their owners were heading to the duck/goose blind or toward competition. The union of John and Janet as a training team brings a completeness in their approach covering all dog temperaments from the young pups to the advanced dogs.
