Jennifer Brand

Hackensack, NJ

CPDT-KA

Dogs have always been a passion of mine. I try to give every dog I work with the tender, loving care they deserve. To me this means treating them as if they were my own. Giving them the same love and compassion I give my cat Zoro every single day. There is a unique bond between every owner and their pet. Every pet I meet has a special place in my heart. I’ve been referred to as β€œAuntie Jen” from my clients. This is very fitting as I think of all of the pets I work with as my nieces and nephews. Whether this be cats or dogs! I look forward to working with you and your pet becoming part of the Jennifer’s Dogs family! ​-Jennifer Brand, CPDT-KA

"More than dog training: a mission to empower owners and address the whole dog"

Jackson, NJ

CPDT-KA | CDBC

Mind & Body Canine Companion Coaching helps caregivers understand the function of their dog’s behavior so they can regulate their own stress, make informed choices, and apply strategies that fit into their lives. This work is rooted in the belief that behavior change requires clarity and understanding, not pressure, which reduces emotional overwhelm for both ends of the leash.\\r\\n\\r\\nPhysical and emotional wellness are considered alongside behavior, with attention to pain, discomfort, and environmental factors that may be driving or complicating what people see. By integrating guardian education with practical, evidence-based support, Mind & Body helps caregivers respond more effectively, improve daily functioning, and support their dogs with greater awareness and compassion.

P3 canine training and obedience

Gloucester Township, NJ

Hi, my name is Ryan I own and op P3 Canine Training & Obedience. I have been working with dogs since a small child and training them since a teenager. I spent five years in US Army from 2005 to 2010. I’ve always owned dogs and would frequently be stopped by people in Philadelphia, asking how my dog was trained so well and if it was possible for them to achieve the same thing. I would always give the best advice possible, but in passing there wasn’t much more than I could do. About 10 years ago I decided to try my hand professionally training. I spent some time with different organizations, observing their methodology as well as their business practices. I felt as though there was a big gap in good training, offered to everyday people for practical purposes I’ve seen huge success with board and trains, but at what cost and could most people afford to send their dog for that long not to mention where are they going to get the hands on experience they needed during that training, taking this and many other things in consideration, I set out to open up my business where we would do one on one training, in-home, and then step out into the world and proof it ensuring that every client would be able to enjoy their dog and give it the quality of life they deserve

I coach the pet parents how to teach their canine companions on what is expected of the pet by creating positive associations and receiving amazing rewards. In other words, my training philosphy is to offer dogs and their humans safe, force-free, positive-reinforcement training programs to modify fear-based or aggressive behaviors. My training experience is very difersified. I am a classroom instructor leading beginner, intermediate, and advanced classes for reactive dogs; I have worked and addressed a gamut of behavioral challenges in shelter dogs, and with individual clients in private sessions. Prior to launching Totally Trainable, Inc, I spent two years as an ASPCA professional responder rehabilitating dogs rescued from cruelty and neglect while they were recovering at the Cruelty Recovery Center in Columbus, OH. In addition to Totally Trainable, LLC, I am also the Manager of Shelter Behavior at St. Hubert’s Animal Welfare Center in ​Madison, NJ. I hold several professional certifications. They are: - Certified Behavior Consultant, Canine -- Knowledge-assessed (CBCC-KA), from the Certification Council of Professional Dog Trainers (CCPDT) - Certified Professional Dog Trainer -- Knowledge-assessed (CPTD-KA), also from CCPDT - Certified in Shelter Behavior, Dogs (CSBD), from the International Association of Animal Behavior Consultants (IAABC)
