Jae-Mar-S Academy of Dog Obedience was founded in 1980. Our policy
is to provide the client with the best training methods, designed
and modified to reach the full potential of your "companion
dog."
Our staff attends and gives workshops of various types throughout
the country. They compete in a variety of canine related trials,
shows, and contests. While this fact may not seem important on the
surface, it is a Dog Trainer's equivalent of passing "The
Bar" or a competency exam.
At Jae-Mar-S, we encourage family participation. You are
encouraged to come by and view any of our classes. In fact, we
hope you also visit other schools and trainers, as we found this
gives a client a real appreciation of our school.
