New Hope Dog Training-Cindy Blair

New Hope Dog Training-Cindy Blair I started working with dogs of various sizes, ages and temperaments in a shelter setting in 2013. LUKE (Cherryacre’s Master Skywalker)
Luke was born 10/19/21.

• Puppy and adult manners classes
• AKC trick titles (novice through elite performer)
• AKC FIT DOG levels 1-3,
STAR Puppy classes - Canine Good Citizen preparation, Urban CGC and Community CGC
• Predation Substitute Training
• Care with Consent Training Many dogs in a shelter setting are great dogs and need some basic manners training. I worked in the kennel and then moved into Adoptions and wor

ked with facilitating a smooth transition from a shelter to a home setting. I decided to become a trainer because I wanted to help dogs before their owners become frustrated and surrendered the dog to a shelter. I have over 10 years’ experience working to train both puppies and adult dogs on good manners in addition to behavior modification for touch sensitivity for grooming and veterinary care and dogs with high prey drive. He became a part of our family when he was 8 weeks old. We worked through potty training, crate training and being respectful with our 4 senior cats. He has a higher prey drive than our past dog, so I have spent a lot of time working on Predation Substitute Training with him. Luke enjoys anything related to water (swimming, taking walks in the rain), shed hunting, playing tug and demonstrating behaviors for classes. He loves all other dogs and all people and is respectful to our four cats. Luke is a dedicated demo dog for New Hope Dog Training virtual dog training services. With a focus on AKC FIT DOG levels, trick training, and Canine Good Citizen preparation, Luke is committed to providing training demonstrations for dogs of all breeds and ages.
