I wish I could say that my journey to become a dog trainer was planned out. It wasn’t. I spent years working in jobs that didn’t fulfill me. And while I gained skills that now help me run a business none of these jobs got me excited to wake up in the morning. I knew I wanted to work with dogs. But I didn’t know the path. I started volunteering with a local dog rescue. And I was told I was a natura

l. I was able to start working in the training aspect. And I was lucky enough to help dogs. I’m talking dogs that were on death row. Dogs that were considered un-adoptable. I apprenticed under some great trainers and eventually worked myself to the point where I was hired on as a full time trainer. The experience formed a huge part of what is the foundation for how I train today. Today I work with a lot of rescues. And I work with a lot of purebreds. And everything in between. And while I realize that not every dog I work with these days is on death row, or in danger of spending his or her entire life in a shelter, I do realize that every client I work with and every dog I meet is in a position needing some help. After all, if you didn’t need help you wouldn’t be on this page today looking for a dog trainer. I like to treat every client, every dog, as if the changes we need to make in the dog’s behavior are of great importance. Because to you and your dog they are. Working for that rescue wasn’t the only foundational piece of my business. It was working there that I met Nicole who was coming to volunteer and help out local dogs. We’ve been together ever since. Our passion for these dogs has formed the foundation for this company and we’re proud to serve the greater Detroit area.

Meet Ember, the adorable little lab who joined us yesterday for a board and train.

Ember’s owners have worked with us before to train their current other dog. So when Ember joined their family they wanted her to have the same level of manners and obedience so here she is!

Ember is super sweet but she lives with 2 young kids and she sometimes gets a bit too worked up and uses her mouth during play or jumps up. So we’ll be working with her around our kids to help improve her manners.

Her owners also spend a lot of time up north during the summer and would love to have her come when called reliable and be the well behaved family dog to accompany them on those trips.

Stay tuned for more cute Ember updates!

Meet Miss Izzy! She is a total sweetheart and joined us yesterday for a board and train.

While Izzy is super sweet, she isn’t always aware of her size and strength. Recently she pulled on leash and ended up pulling down one of her owners which resulted in some nasty injuries for him.

Izzy’s owners love her so much but we want them to be able to feel confident and be safe when walking her and not fear that she may try to chase a squirrel and drag them along for the ride.

We are already having a blast with Izzy. She is super smart which is making training fun for us all!

Stay tuned for updates during her training program.

Meet Gigi, the beautiful German Shepherd who joined us this week for a board and train. Gigi lives with another German shepherd and the two of them have gotten into a few scuffles.

We will be working with Gigi to help avoid fights in the future and to make sure Gigi has the manners to be able to accompany her owner out in public and be a polite doggie citizen.

Stay tuned for updates on Gigi.

This handsome boy is Apollo. The 6 month old Akita who arrived today for a 3 week board and train.

Apollo is another young guy who lacks some manners and obedience. His owners would love for him to came when called even when off leash and around distractions. Currently Apollo is nipping at young kids so we will be working to eliminate that behavior. He also needs some continued work on his crate training and potty training since he’s still young. And we will be working on establishing some manners when interacting with other dogs.

We are looking forward to training with Apollo and sharing his progress over the next 3 weeks. Stay tuned for updates.

Meet Maggie, the adorable 9 month old Sheepadoodle who joined us yesterday for a board and train.

We previously trained another dog for Maggie’s owner and when Maggie joined the family they wanted her to have the same level of training as their first dog Stella so they called us.

Maggie struggles with some common issues we see with young dogs. She barks excessively, she shows some jealousy with the other dog and lacks polite manners when interacting with the other dog, she recently has chewed up some stuff when left alone, and in general lacks some obedience and manners.

Nevertheless Maggie is a super sweet girl and we are loving having her here and starting her training. We can’t wait to show off everything she will be learning. Stay tuned for updates on her progress.
