TRAINING STAFF AND MANAGEMENT
Because we are small (but
growing) all training will be initially done by myself (Don Brown). As we
grow all staff will be club members and managed by me. No one person knows
it all, so as required, specialized experts will be consulted or hired.

INSTRUCTORS
-
DONALD BROWN - Don 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.
- JANE STANLEY - Jane came to us for training in Advanced Obedience
with her Bouvier. Jane is a dedicated person and makes a fine instructor
with her positive methods. She is a very compassionate person who is willing
to help you with your training problems. Jane has put an Excellent Rally
title on her Bouvier, Riley and a Jumpers With Weaves leg also. She has also
put one Novice Rally leg on her rescue Bouvier, Spirit. Jane is now working
Riley in our Competition Obedience class.
