Choice Obedience Training

Delve into understanding your dog's mind using balanced-positive based methods with
our trainer, Amber Sipes. She had been employed with the former Trillium Pet Care since
2006, acquiring 14+ years of experience in pet grooming and care. She has over 10 years of
experience as a canine obedience instructor, therapy dog tester, and is a certified Canine
Good Citizen (CGC) evaluator with the AKC. Striving to be involved in the dog world as
much as possible, Amber has titled and trained dogs in multiple venues such as
conformation, obedience, barn hunt, coursing ability, search & rescue, Rally obedience,
and therapy dog. She is currently training and working with her personal dogs,
Roman, a Doberman Pinscher, Vintage, Cliché, and Extra, all Standard Poodles, in agility,
obedience, conformation, and scent work. She is also the proud owner of Vintage Country
Pet Resort.
We offer multiple forms of obedience, varying in age range and skill level including, but not limited to, canine socialization, puppy classes, basic obedience, advanced obedience, CGC testing, therapy work, and may do behavior training on a case by case basis.
All Canine Good Citizen (CGC), Therapy Dog, and Trick Dog testing may be scheduled without attending the designated class by appointment only with a fee of $25.
