TRAINING:
That Marvelous Dog now offers training for the family pet. In late 2004, Debbie completed an 11-month program at the State Certified Dog Academy. Based on this formation she created her own training program with her original philosophy:
Providing dog training in a safe and peaceful atmosphere with techniques that are effective and fun.
Debbie loves to tell her clients, "Many trainers prefer to have all of the children and other family pets out of the way during training.. not me! I love everyone getting involved and seems to all work out best that way."
There is no weight limit for training classes.
