Ellen Murphy- Professional Dog Trainer and Canine Sports Judge

As a professional dog trainer and active AKC evaluator and judge in the world of canine sports. With deep commitment to helping dogs and their owners succeed together, I bring both practical experience and credentials to every training session.

As an AKC Canine Good Citizen Evaluator, North American Diving Dog (NADD) Senior Judge, AKC Fetch Judge, and, Bowling Green, KY AKC Fit Dog Director. I offer a well rounded approach that blends foundational obedience with physical fitness, mental engagement, and sport specific skills.

Over the years I have worked with dogs of all breeds, temperaments, and skill levels- from basic manners to competitive sports prep. My training philosophy centers on positive reinforcement, clear communication, and trust, whether working on CGC certification, improving leash manners, or preparing a dog for a sporting event.

I am passionate about promoting active lifestyles for dogs and their people, and I love helping teams discover the joy of working together - whether in the ring, on the dock, or during everyday adventure.
