Brent Marini

I love dogs! They’re not complicated. They need a leader, a handler that they can trust, and they’ll give their lives for you. For 17 years I served in both the Marine Corps as well as the US Army. For the last 3 years of my career I worked with high performing service dogs, specially trained to save lives. Being a part of that process taught me one simple truth.…if you want to be proficient at anything, you need to drill it. The military’s process for creating soldiers by drilling skills, habits, and knowledge into cadets is the same one used for creating a well trained canine. We need to learn to love this process and to appreciate the small, seemingly insignificant steps when training dogs. This shows our dogs that we’re faithful to them and trains them to be faithful to us.

Working with me will incorporate not only a rigorous training schedule tailored to your dog, but also a schedule geared towards training you as an owner. Recognizing that this is a partnership between you and your dog is important and it is my job job to provide you with the tools to continue the training at home. I’ll lay the foundation with your canine and teach you how to build on that.
