About Companion Canines
I have a dog training business that is geared towards the family pet in a home environment with the entire household being involved. I strive to make training fun and provide easy practical games to keep the learning fun. I can teach you the proper use of various tools for training with positive reinforcement. I have over 30 years of experience combined with being a professional groomer, a 4H leader,( experience teaching kids), and am also a licensed veterinary technician. Therefore, I can provide you with insight to the entire dog, and how all things can effect behavior.

My wife, Adele, and I could not have asked for a better training experience for our Portie, "Jazz" than Janet at Canine Companions.

My family and I have been taking our dogs to Janet for 5+ years now for training and boarding- she is truly the BEST. Janet is so spot on with her training and direction not only with dogs, but owners as well. Janet has extensive knowledge about dog training and health. I look to her for any advice related to my dogs. Janet is experienced, hard working and professional. My dog and I leave her home feeling comfortable and confident to conquer anything! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

Kasia and her mom can't thank you enough for her training. You are truly the BEST!!! Kasia just LOVES JANET!!!
