Had a guy show up in a suit and tye to drop his dog off that had been with a trainer in Laffy for 4 months.
My office is on Lake St and busy as hell, lets dog out of kennel and he heads to Lake St. Dog had zero clue what HERE meant or sit or fetch or heel but he had eaten well in those four months. Six months later i returned a dog that would handle and pick up multiple marks but was wasted because the owner would never participate. You have to participate in order to learn how to handle your dog.

So I assume you train dogs labs?
I’ve had 3 labs, had my first trained by a local trainer that I made good friends with. Went and worked with him and learned the process of him working other dogs in various stages , as well as getting to see mine go through the full program up to me running him in a MH test.
Next dog, I trained myself and believe he turned out better.
My current female I trained is an absolute beast in the field and in any HT or FT.
I’ve been contemplating getting into the training world but obviously would like more guidance.
How would I go about getting on with a good trainer to learn a bit more under?
Obviously I can’t build a slab and some kennels and expect customers without recommendations.
But my goal is to have a kennel of my own and do it as a living.
I have thought about maybe taking on one or two dogs as that’s all I have room for currently , but not sure if simply showing what I did with my current dog and past dog would be enough to get customers.
Any suggestions?
