Training for a Well Mannered Dog

Welcome!
My name is Denise and I am the person behind Out And About Dog Training.

Over the years, dogs have brought much joy, laughter, and love into my life. Then I got my first Weimaraner, Jackson. He was very high strung, full of issues and hard to handle. Jackson became my driving force to learn about dogs and their behavior. Through hard work and determination I became a nationally Certified Professional Dog Trainer (CPDT-KA)

I am a certified American Kennel Club (AKC) Canine Good Citizen trainer and evaluator. I am also a member of The Association for Professional Dog Trainers (APDT) and the Professional Pet Guild (PPG)

I have competed in AKC, World Cynosport and C-WAGS and hold titles in Rally and Obedience. I am a judge for C-WAGS Rally and Obedience and an AKC CGC Evaluator.

My training style focuses on positive reinforcement methods while building better relationships between dog and owner. I love to teach people that you can teach your dog in a positive way. It does not always come overnight but with consistent training, it will happen. You can build a wonderful and loving relationship with your dog.

​I am excited to meet you and your dog!
