In the Beginning
Don Brown is the owner of The Academy of Dog Training and Agility. With
more than 25 years of experience training, showing and breeding dogs, he is
well versed in the necessary components for dogs to be positive members of
their communities. Don started out in confirmation, owner handling his
English Pointers to their championships.
Don has trained in obedience with Susan Strickland, Carolyn Price, West
Chester Obedience Club and with Pam Helmer of the Talbot Kennel Club. He has
taught for the West Chester Obedience Club and the Wilmington Kennel Club.
He has put obedience titles on two of his standard poodles. He trains in
agility with Linda Snyer of the Talbot Kennel Club. At the present time he
is running "Ross", standard poodle, in agility.
It was while training at Talbot Kennel Club that Don became familiar
with the clicker training positive method. We emphasize the word "positive".
It makes training fun for you and your dog.
The following are the dogs and the titles Don put on them:
- Harmonie Buster Blanc Chein - CD
- CH Trelarken’s ‘Bout Time - CD
- CH Wedgewood Yankee Traveler
- CH Worthalls Worth The Chance
- CH Wedgewood Worth A Million
