Companion Canines

Companion Canines Dog training that offers a variety of methods to find the best fit for you and your pet partner. My adult life has revolved around caring for dogs.

My goal at Companion Canines is to help your dog become a happy, well-balanced and reliable companion. We offer a unique opportunity to find out what training methods work best along with giving you information to make you and your dog’s lives better. Scientific learning theories have proven canines to be a social- and community-driven animal, each with their own specific language. All of the trai

ning done with Companion Canines is built around positive reinforcement as well as non-physical punishment. Through mental and physical activity, the goal for your animal is to become a well-balanced family member. As a result, your dog will not be lonely or develop destructive behavior when left alone, and will be better behaved during human and social interactions. Dogs won’t always be perfect, but they certainly deserve to be happy! I’ve dedicated myself to training in a variety of instructional techniques to better meet the needs of each individual canine personality. I believe each situation requires a degree of skill and knowledge, but most of all compassion. It is my goal to share my compassion for animals with you so that the owner-dog relationship can be completely understood and thoroughly enjoyed. Dogs are truly a gift from God and I believe dogs consider their human relationship a gift as well. My professional experience includes:

Professional Dog Groomer for over 30 years
Licensed Veterinary Technician for over 25 years
Certified Dog Trainer for over 15 years
Member of Association of Pet Dog trainers (APDT)
Certified AKC Canine Good Citizen Evaluator

‼️SPECIAL NEEDS HOME NEEDED SOON‼️ We are starting the search for a special needs home for Lincoln. Lincoln is not taking meet/greets at this time. The bad…. He’s a bulldog, unfortunately a walking vet bill. Lincoln came in quite a mess having an allergy issue. He had an allergy shot, was treated for yeast infection in ears, eye drops and started on limited ingredient food that should work for him. He will be neutered and updated on vaccinations 08/13/26. Until then he will stay at shelter so we can get him on his way to being healthy. With the proper diet, a Bulldog experienced owner, a person that understands food allergies and a vet that works with allergy dogs, Lincoln will be able to have a pretty normal Doggie life. The new owner needs to understand the expense of owning him and that regular vetting will be a REQUIRED part of owning him(allergy shots every six weeks). The good…. He’s GORGEOUS , friendly, loves dogs, cats, kids and all people, is goofy, friendly, 3 yrs old, and only 45lbs, and TYPICAL BULLDOG!!! AGAIN this dog is not having meet and greets at this time as he is working on getting healthy. If you’re interested in adopting please DM your information or leave a very detailed message and we will contact you back. (231)258-3309.

What’s the best part about staying in your own little cabin in the woods?⁠
⁠
Our answer? Nature. It’s the sound of the trees, the waves against the rocks, the birds outside. ⁠
⁠
And the second best part?! Experiencing the sights and sounds of nature with your family and friends. 👯‍♀️👯‍♂️ This space right here is made for those moments of reconnecting with all the good stuff. 🌊🌲🐿🌿💚
