Meridus K9 and Equine - Dog Training - Ramona, CA
As a passionate and dedicated Animal Behavior College Certified Dog Trainer (ABCDT), I am committed to enriching the lives of pets and their owners through compassionate and effective training. With over a decade of experience, my expertise spans across various disciplines, including puppy training, basic to advanced obedience, agility, and emotional support animal preparation. Proudly affiliated with both the Association of Professional Dog Trainers (APDT) and the International Association of Canine Professionals (IACP), I ensure that every training session is grounded in the latest techniques and the utmost care.
Whether you're looking to strengthen your bond with your dog or need specialized training for your feline friend, I offer comprehensive services tailored to your pet's unique needs. My training philosophy emphasizes mutual respect and understanding, ensuring that your pet follows cues out of love rather than fear. I provide a range of services, including boarding, where dogs enjoy their own space and are walked twice daily, as well as training for dogs of all sizes, including intact dogs and females in heat. For cat parents, I offer services for indoor cats that are spayed or neutered, ensuring a safe and engaging environment for all pets.
Convenience is key, and I am proud to offer mobile services to cater to your schedule and location within my travel radius. With flexible online sessions available, you can access professional training from the comfort of your home. My cancellation policy requires a 24-hour notice, reflecting my dedication to providing reliable and accommodating services. Ready to enhance your pet's training journey?
