Deborah Manheim CPDT-KA, CDBC
Deb brings her reinforcement-based dog training to Las Vegas and its surrounding suburbs. She believes that education is the key to fostering and furthering the bonds between dogs and humans, and that owners have the responsibility to lead, manage, and train their dogs humanely. The partnerships created should be founded on trust and cooperation, not fear. Helping to set you and your dog up for early success, Deb teaches a simple method that you will be able to master quickly and a technique that you will be able to apply to anything you would like to teach your dog to do in the future.
Having taken the 1st national dog trainer's certification exam given by the Certification Council for Professional Dog Trainers (CCPDT) in 2001, she was awarded her CPDT-Knowledge Assessed. She is also a Professional Member of the Association of Pet Dog Trainers (APDT), and was named Certified Dog Behavior Consultant by the International Association of Animal Behavior Consultants (IAABC) in 2005.
Deb continues her education by attending national conferences, seminars, and workshops in areas of behavior
modification and clicker training.
"Training doesn't limit a dog. Training frees a dog.
My dog, being trained, is free - free to walk with me, free to ride with me,
free to play off-leash with other dogs, free to learn and run.
An untrained dog is "free" to sit in the backyard
where he can get into as little trouble as possible."
