WHY SUNCOAST DOG TRAINING?

Bruce MarshallLooking for the right program and person to train your dog? We know it is confusing trying to determine which place or person can provide what you need and want for you and your dog. That is why we are in business and why so many veterinarians and canine specialists refer their clients to us.

Anyone can attain a dog trainer “certification” via the internet or be self proclaimed because they have a “love for” and have been “working with dogs their whole life” These are very necessary components and very nice but do they know what they are doing? … Probably not, and they could possibly cause more harm than good. Unfortunately there is no state licensing or certification in Florida for dog trainers which means there are people out there that will take your money and quite possibly create more problems than you and your dog started with.

Here is the real thing….Certified by the U.S. Border Patrol (U.S. Department of Justice) and by the State of Florida FDOT and has the track record to prove it. There are no self-proclaimed dog trainers here….Just the real deal!

The results of a career of dog training are working as you read this paragraph.

Bruce has hundreds of hours of classroom and many years of field work on training, correcting and solving behavioral problems of working canines.

After many years in an exciting career of canine training and behavior modification for law enforcement canines and handlers, Bruce retired and started training canines in the civilian world.

Years of actual hands on day to day experience with some of the most aggressive and intelligent canines in the world certainly has prepared Bruce to be able to train and solve any training or behavioral issues you may have with your dog. Do not be taken in by cute slogans and “trainers” who are self proclaimed or “certified” by these big box pet stores and internet sites…the price you pay will not only be spending too much money and getting little or no return but could possibly cause adverse problems for your dog.
