Meet the Trainers

All of our trainers are certified through respected dog training organizations such as The University of Toledo, Karen Pryor Academy, CCPDT, and Fear Free Pets. Why does this matter? Certification means that trainers have demonstrated their expertise and skills in positive reinforcement based dog training through rigorous testing. At Ready, Set...Train!, we prioritize high-level certifications and ongoing education for our dog trainers, ensuring they continuously develop and refine their skills to provide the best training possible for dogs and their owners.
