Who licenses dog trainers?

[borzoimom]

Well, Dr. Goodnow, Boirzoidmom's answer is good enough for me. And seeing that she has people standing in line for her classes then she would be my choice for a trainer.

Thank you. My certification has over 5 things listed- by law I have to have a license because of WHAT is listed.
If jane doe that has a basic obedience or agility etc- no they are not required to be licensed- .. I am !

Good enough for me Borzoid, experience, credentials, and credibility with a line up is good enough for me .

I guess this answers my question of whether you have proof or not. Thanks so much.

Sorry mike001 I have the same credentials and experience, that is how I know borzoimom btw no D in her name dearest.
And you wouldn't get on a waiting list with me ever.
I prefer to work with people whose animals aren't brighter than they are.

Dr Goodnow---I wouldn't be standing in your line. I prefer open minded non judgemental trainers who prove themselves in the public eye.
But thank you for the compliment...yes all my dogs are very smart, each and everyone having a cgc, td, cd, cdx, ud, tx and shutzund. Agility and flyball I consider playtime for them, but they also have their titles for that also.
I guess my training isn't that bad after all.
I think I'll go order my service dog capes now.

WOW

Of course I bought my dogs. I didn't consider myself breeder material. I've been in dogs for over 25 yrs, so yes, I do have a lot of experience.
And you claim I am disabled because I get titles on my dogs?
By the way, my dogs alays came from reputable breeders that could show me everything I was looking for in a Shepherd.

No I assumed that as you claim to have service dogs for your issues.

Your words not mine.

WOW you have SUPER DOGS. Never knew a dog with expertise in so many areas. As for the service dog capes what does that have to do with anything?

Well doggonit! Hasn't this turned into an enlightening thread?

Any of us can claim anything we like since we'll most likely never meet each other. But when all is said and done it doesn't matter how much we brag, what fabulous awards our dogs have won or even how smart they are.

Instead, what it all boils down to is credibility and consistency in our posts on a day to day basis. That's really all we have to go by in an anonymous online community.

There's nothing better than a lively debate until it gets sidetracked with personal issues!

Pass the gin Borzmom, I need a stiff one before I retire for the night. And all I was talking about was licenced trainers.Pass the Tequila, I need something stronger to wash that taste down.

This one I am waiting on with baited breath!
I am certain she misspoke............. either all her dogs have the titles she claims.......or she doesnt have the dogs she claims...........................

hmmmmmmmmm

Agility---yes I do have 2 Poms, they belong to my grandaughter who lives with us since her parents died in a car crash. She does obedience with them but of course not shutzund. I consider the poms as part of our family just like my grandaughter.
I was waiting for my last two shepherds to arrive when I joined I think, not sure. But I have had shepherds for over 25 yrs myself. My son also had a small pom when he grew up. No law says we can't have more than one breed.
