Cheryle Homuth, CPDT-KA, KPA, CTP

Cheryle Homuth is a Certified Professional Dog Trainer by the Association of Pet Dog Trainers and is also a Certified Training Partner for the Karen Pryor Academy. She has been professionally training dogs for over 10 years and has taught many classes and seminars on various topics related to animal learning, training and behavior. By applying the concepts of learning theory combined with fun and play, Cheryle teaches dog owners how to train their dogs to want to do desired behaviors. Instead of giving commands and corrections, the focus is on teaching the correct behavior so the dog knows what to do instead of what not to do. This gives the dog the foundation for a lifetime of successful learning, increases the dog-owner bond, and makes learning fun for both. Cheryle’s students are always amazed at how fast their dogs learn and how many things they can do. In addition to obedience classes, other classes that she teaches are: canine freestyle dance, tricks, rally obedience, teach your dog to target, shaping classes, and how to use the clicker in your training. She also does in-home consultations and training for both dogs and cats. Cheryle is in the process of finishing her graduate degree to become a board certified Animal Behaviorist. This is a five year graduate degree which applies the concepts of behavior analysis.
