CHANGE HAS COME FOR
FRESNO DOG TRAINING
by Kim Toepfer

The success of my training business has exceeded my
expectations! It has been wonderful to meet and work with so
many dedicated dog owners. However, I am embarking on
some new dog-related adventures and I need to carve some
time out of my life to take them on. As such, I will be adding
some other local trainers as resources to my website. I will still
be teaching the occasional class and handling some problem
cases, but you should expect to see me in print more than in
person soon. Many of the trainers that will appear at Fresno
Dog Training are graduates of the Animal Behavior College
and have worked with me personally during the externship
phase of their coursework. Please welcome all of the skilled
professionals who appear here and patronize their classes.

			Love Dogs? Got a Building? Trainers within the Fresno Dog Trainer Network are actively seeking new locations for dog training classes in Fresno, Visalia and Lemoore. We are looking for locations that are easily accessible, available during evenings and weekends for training classes with a temperature controlled open space of at least 25'x25' - the larger the better! Our trainers will instruct the owners to clean up after their pets on the grounds and inside the building. If you have a location that may suit these needs, contact Kim.

			AKCs Canine Health Foundation presents The Genome Barks series, an audio podcast program with information on canine health research, veterinary healthcare and breeding management.
