Meet The Trainers

Danielle Prince

Doggy Day Out is pleased to introduce our new trainer, Danielle Prince.  Many of you may recognize Danielle as she has been with Doggy Day Out since April, 2003.  After being promoted to Senior Kennel Technician, Danielle began apprenticing with local trainers and was soon on her way to pursuing her passion.

This past summer Danielle turned her hobby of dog training into a full-time career. She graduated from the National K-9 School for Dog Trainers in Columbus, Ohio as a Certified Professional Dog Trainer.  She also has certification in Advanced Obedience, Behavior Modification, Scent Detection, Tracking, Retrieval, Utility, and Puppy Development.  Danielle continues to grow professionally by attending seminars led by individuals such as Pat Miller, Pam Martin, and Carolyn Scott.  She is a member of both the Association of Pet Dog Trainers (APDT) as well as the International Association of Canine Professionals (IACP).  Danielle gives back to the dog community as an agent and foster mom for Russell Rescue, Inc., a national non-profit rescue organization for Jack Russell Terriers.    

Danielle trained her first dog, a Bull Mastiff mix, when she was 12 years old and the joy of teaching dogs has been with her ever since.  All 3 of her current dogs are titled.  Bob, an 8 year old shar pei / lab mix has earned his Canine Good Citizen (CGC) certificate.  As a rescue dog, Bob had a rough start to his life and was very wary of new people.  Through Danielle's guidance, Bob has become one of Doggy Day Out's greeters and can often be found hanging out in the office welcoming both dogs and humans alike.  Danielle's 4 year old black Lab Luke was also a rescue.  Luke has his CGC as well as Companion Dog (CD) and Novice and Advanced Rally titles.  Luke would rather spend his days playing big brother and best bud to the daycare and boarding clients at Doggy Day Out so he has retired from the show ring and his mild disposition is perfectly suited for showing new dogs the ins and outs of doggy daycare.

The newest addition to the Prince family is little Liberty Belle.  Liberty is a 1 year old Jack Russell Terrier who is full of spunk and quite the busy body.  She too is everyone's best friend regardless of whether in competition or working the booth at one of the many dog shows she attends throughout the year.  Liberty has earned her CGC, CD, Novice Rally (RN) and Advanced Rally (RA) titles.  She is currently working on her RE and CDX titles.  Liberty is a member of the Electric Dawg Flyball Club that meets on Saturday mornings at Doggy Day Out.  In addition, Liberty also attends JRTCA trials and competes in racing, lure coursing, and go-to-ground.  Her latest endeavor is dock diving and Danielle soon hopes to add agility to Liberty's many talents.  As we said in the beginning, this is one tireless dog!
