Michigan Dog Training Services - Plymouth, MI

Member since Feb 2020

At [Your Business Name], I specialize in training dogs of all shapes and sizes, from the spirited small breeds under 20 lbs to the robust giants over 80 lbs. With my certifications in Dog Obedience Training, Dog Therapy Training, and Service Dog Training, I bring a wealth of knowledge and experience to the table. I’m also an American Kennel Club Canine Good Citizen Approved Evaluator and hold a certification in Pet First Aid and CPR from the American Red Cross. I’ve been proudly serving dogs and their owners since February 2020, and I’m passionate about helping dogs with high energy, fearful or aggressive tendencies, and those aspiring to become Service or Therapy Dogs.

My comprehensive training programs are designed to meet the unique needs of every dog and their owner. I offer a variety of services, including Board and Train, Day Training, In-Home Lessons, and Private Lessons at our facility. I also conduct engaging Group Classes, provide Day Care, and offer a Home Away from Home boarding experience. I understand that every pet is different, which is why I offer free meet and greets to ensure that both you and your dog feel comfortable before we begin our journey together. Additionally, for your convenience, I provide mobile services so I can come to you, making it easier for busy pet parents to access the training they need.

Ready to transform your dog's behavior and build a stronger bond with your furry friend? With my business licensed and insured, and my commitment to using positive reinforcement methods, you can trust that you're in good hands. Let’s work together to unlock your dog's full potential!
