About the Trainer

Amy Herbert is a Certified Dog Trainer who has been training dogs since she was a child.  She has trained dogs for Obedience, Rally, Agility, Canine Good Citizen, and Conformation.  Amy is currently studying to train dogs in the sport of Shutzhund, Tracking, and Herding.  She has a long background in equine sports including dressage, show jumping, cross country, english pleasure, and showmanship.  She is able to use a lot of her horse background with training dogs. 
Amy loves all types of animals and truly enjoys working with them and seeing them learn things that will make their lives more enjoyable.  She has many animals on her farm and raises all her own meat for her family.  The variety of livestock include pigs, turkeys, laying hens, broiler chickens, meat rabbits, and of course her horse Rhythm.  

Amy has a gift for connecting with all types of animals.  They respond to and bond with her almost immediately.  Her teaching style is very laid back and casual which makes her clients feel comfortable and allows for easy learning.  She runs her kennel with the same casual, inviting atmosphere.  Most mornings you find Amy, still in her pajamas, outside doing chores with her dogs following in her tracks.

Amy has developed several programs, each designed to achieve specific results. Her approach is not one size fits all. Some of Amy's programs include:

• Off Leash Obedience
• Obedience Training
• Complete In-House Training Packages
• Behavior Modification
• Around Town Training
• Show Ring Training
