Testimonials
“The puppy class was fun, and not only do the puppies learn but us the owners learned. There were lessons on commands, socialization, manners, and potty training.”
– Jared Golden E
“Merit is great at training dogs! She helped our rescue Pitt so much! She really understands a dog’s behavior and how to correct it.”
– Amelia A
“We went to Merit with our Invidia (a Rottweiler) and were very impressed by her skills and the services she offered. Invidia was rather antisocial & she worked with us as much as possible to help with that. This has been 8 years or so and we still refer people to her!”
– Ashley
