Introduction

Hi, I am Marci Burk! I do in-home customized training sessions. Whether you have a new puppy or are dealing with bad behaviors of any form, I am here to help you create a well balanced dog! I travel to your home and work with your dog and your family to ensure dogs stay in their forever home! I teach you how your dog's mind works and what you can do to prevent or stop bad behaviors, all in the comfort of your own home. Generally most people only need one appointment with me. My ultimate goal is to keep your dog moving forward and living the most balanced, healthy life they can with you!
