My name is Russ Nielsen and I am a graduate of Animal Behavior College where I earned my certification as an ABC Certified Dog Trainer.  Animal Behavior College (ABC) is approved by the Bureau for Private Post-secondary and Vocational Education and is an internationally recognized school.  My year long commitment to this program has provided me with a formal education in canine obedience training and understanding behavior and its motives.   My certification, education and experience provide me the skills required to effectively and humanely train your dog while keeping alive the spark that makes  your dog so special to you.  I also have additional certifications in Private Lessons and Shelter Training  (see certificates below). I work with all breeds and I look forward to working with you and your dog.
