dog obedience training?
- Image via Wikipedia
are there any schools in the area of louisville ky or bowling green ky that offers training to become a certified dog obedience trainer? or does anyone know if the online courses are legit? I am interested in doing work to train police and personal protection dogs. If anyone has any advice on how to do this please share your info . thanks!
Here’s what my research found. The “best” national organization is the Association of Pet Dog Trainers, (APDT). They are a professional organization of individual trainers who – in their own words – are committed to becoming better trainers through education. They have created a certification process. Here is a link to that……also there appears to be 7 different organizations that are considered “legit”.

A good place to start is Association of Pet Dog Trainers. They offer training plus they can direct you to the additional training you will need.
