Casey DeKam, the owner and trainer, provides safe, effective, gentle dog training for dogs of all breeds and puppies of any age, based on positive reinforcement and proper leadership.
After years of fostering rescue dogs and volunteering in local shelters, I one day decided that I COULD do more and I WOULD do more!
I could no longer sit back and continue to watch great dogs needlessly suffer through the pain of abandonment.
Over 3 million dogs enter shelters each year in the US alone. The #1 reason for owner surrenders? Behavioral issues. Many of which can be corrected through owner dedication and basic training.
So, I set out on a two-and-a-half-year journey, in which I gained certificates from Animal Behavioral college in 7 different areas.
In 2016, I took the leap and began building my business, with 1 main goal in mind — providing affordable and effective training to my community, in hopes of keeping more dogs out of our area shelters.
That goal will never change!
I’m happy to answer your questions, get you on my schedule or help you sign up for my online services.
