Personal
Experience Jennifer has been training dogs for companionship and competition since she was 8 years old! Training techniques at the time were largely punishment based (things have come a long way since then!), but even then, Jennifer made it her own personal goal to find newer, more positive ways to shape behavior. She currently competes in Rally Obedience with her two terriers. |

| DANI MEYERS Assistant Instructor | |
| Our
team has recently grown to include a second trainer, Dani
Meyers. She is an exceptional dog trainer, and has a knack
for dealing with people as well. She has been assisting Jennifer with group classes for many months and is now ready to start teaching classes on her own. She will be instructing Fit with Fido, Doga - Yoga for People and Dogs, and Basic Manners classes. I couldn't be happier with Dani, both personally and professionally. I am lucky to have found her, and I know my students will be just as happy to learn from her. |
