About this trainer

Sit Stay Play Michigan holds a BA in Special Education and boasts 20 years of experience in teaching Special Education. The journey into dog training commenced in 2008 as an apprentice trainer, leading to completion of the Animal Behavioral College Dog Trainer program in 2012.

Following this, Sit Stay Play Co. was established in 2013, and subsequently, Sit Stay Play Michigan in 2017. Presently, they are diligently preparing for the CPDT-KA test scheduled for March 2022, while concurrently enrolled in the Control Unleashed Certified Instructor program, expected to conclude in early 2022.

Their training methodology is rooted in clicker training and positive reinforcement techniques. Sit Stay Play Michigan’s certifications and designations include Head Trainer and Owner. Their primary role encompasses both training and ownership responsibilities.

The employed training equipment features flat collars, leashes, and harnesses, with a training philosophy emphasizing that behavior which is reinforced will be repeated. Sit Stay Play Michigan extends its services to the Midland, Bay County, and Saginaw, Michigan areas, and operates in the English language.
