Our Credentials

In our team of dog trainers, we have two internationally recognized professionals who compete at the highest levels of the sport — Schutzhund/IPO, AKC, FCI, AWDF, etc. I mean, the list truly goes on and on. We have won dozens of awards in dog training and participated as judges and training directors for entities including Tri-State Doberman Club, Alpha Schutzhund Club, and North Jersey Dog Sport Club.

We’ve won many of the toughest competitions in the dog sport world when you put us up against other internationally recognized trainers. We take dog training very seriously. We’re all perfectionists in making sure our dogs are well taken care of and have the love, knowledge, and communication to succeed in training.

Happy Dogs Boarding and Training has a team of trainers that carries an impressive list of credentials to say the least. A key characteristic that separates us from others is that we all have specific scopes of dog training that we are passionate about.  If you ask any Happy Dogs Boarding and Training member, they will tell you that we strive to be the nation’s best boarding training program.
