Owner and Certified Professional Dog Trainer, Anissa Knickerbocker, has had dogs in her family since she can remember and trained her first dog over 15 years ago. Anissa decided to turn professional without falling into the same singular "method" of training as other have, so she enrolled in an intensive Master Trainer course at National K-9 Learning Center, which includes a combination of classroom instruction, hands-on training experience, written testing, and extensive field evaluations under the supervision of experienced instructors. The National K-9 Learning Center is recognized internationally and approved by the Ohio State Board of Career College and Schools.
I am fortunate that I was able to turn my love and passion for animals into a profession that allows me the ability to enrich the lives of dogs and the people who love them.
The number of dogs in shelters is staggering... anywhere between two million and four million dogs each year. Some statistics state that over fifty-six percent (56%) of these dogs are euthanized, not including those abandoned, in rescues, or neglected. The number one reason that people willingly surrender their dogs is due to behavioral issues. A professional dog trainer can help resolve seventy percent (70%) of all behavioral issues with basic obedience training.
It is my hope to reduce the number of dogs given up to shelters and rescues by educating and training owners and their dogs.
