Description: THE DOGGUY was founded in 1998 by Chris Amick and is backed with over 25 years of experience. Chris has been active in dog sports since 1978 and has trained and titled dogs in both AKC obedience and Schutzhund sportwork. While Kennel Manager at the Greater Birmingham Humane Society he saw that a great many dogs were being surrendered for often minor behavior problems. Chris began offering obedience classes for both the adopted dogs and those that the owners were willing to work with instead of surrendering. Many dog human relationships were saved and several of his students subsequently earned their CGC's. Chris is also a certified AKC Canine Good Citizen evaluator. Several students of the Animal Behavior College have mentored under Chris as part of their graduation and certification requirements. Chris has been nominated to the International Association of Canine Professionals 2008 Hall of fame!
THE DOGGUY offers obedience / companion training and behavior modification to people with "problem" dogs. Several veterinarians refer canine aggression and biting cases to Chris as their last chance for rehabilitation and management. We have no favorite training method or ideology, preferring to utilize the dog's inherent drives and understanding that every dog is different and therefore will have different motivators. The end result is a dog that is spirited and eager to work ... and most importantly a loved member of "his" family! Through our commitment, experience, and expertise THE DOGGUY has established a business relationship with our customers that will last a lifetime! |
