Doggone Out and About

About Me

My name is Melissa Manderson and I have been training dogs since I was 12 years old.  I started in my neighbor's backyard with their Basenji and Rat Terrier mix and a library of knowledge and dog training books. In 2015, I received an official dog training certificate from Animal Behavioral College.  Since then, I have continued to work with my personal pups as well as other's pups in group and private lessons.  Currently, I have a Shepard/Lab mix named Shiloh.  He will be the "demo dog" for our classes. Shiloh is a certified Therapy Dog and has earned his CGC.

I am also a photographer(owner of M 'n M Photography) and an Athletic Trainer for Northside Hospital.
