About Your Next Favorite Dog Trainer
My name is Jason Smith and I run Optimum Canine - Dog Obedience Training & Unwanted Behavioural Services.
Ever since a young boy I have been fascinated with dogs. When I was only three years old, I would walk around on my hands and knees pretending to be a dog. My parents thought in bringing home a puppy it would encourage me to behave less like a dog and more like a human.
This idea massively backfired as I continued my doggy like behaviours, but just with a puppy copying my every move.
I have been training dogs for many years now, including my own and clients. I believe in developing a mutual understanding between you and your dog, and that this can only be provided when a relationship and bond is built with continuous dog training.
Caring for an animal in your home is as much about responsibility as it is about love.
The enjoyment and fulfillment your dog will experience whilst being trained by my methods, in itself will be rewarding. Get the most out of your relationship with your dog by calling me today at, Optimum Canine - Dog Obedience Training & Unwanted Behavioural Services.
