PHILOSOPHY

At Merle Pack, we strive to create a positive environment in which owners can enjoy the training process as opposed to dread it.

We utilize positive reinforcement in a one on one train-through-play environment, where both dogs and owners are energized and engaged in training.

It's important to understand that Merle Pack does NOT train dogs. We train OWNERS how to interact and communicate with their dogs more efficiently.

With the tools provided by Merle Pack, owners will be able to quickly tackle any of their dog's behavioral problems with confidence.

ABOUT MERLE

PACK TRAINING

Merle Pack Los Angeles Dog Training was founded with the goal of providing struggling dog owners with the tools and process necessary to correct behavioral problems both quickly and reliably.

Our training method uses positive reinforcement and a train through play mentality to internally motivate your dog, making them WANT to behave correctly as opposed to fearing the repercussions for disobeying.

This mindset serves to strengthen the relationship between you and your best friend.

If you think you have a great relationship with your dog now, just wait...it's about to become even better!

ANGUS

Angus is a thirteen year old Miniature Australian Shepard who I’ve had the pleasure of knowing for the past few years. Due to failing vision and hearing, Angus is on an altered training regiment that has allowed him to overcome aggression issues despite being nearly completely blind and deaf. He is a great example of successful training for senior dogs with disabilities. Looks like an old dog actually can learn new tricks after all!

ARYA

Arya is an eighteen month old Miniature American Shepard who has been with me since she was 8 weeks old. Arya is a loving, bundle of energy who wants nothing more than to please who ever is holding the closest tennis ball. She is working towards her career as an agility dog, as well as a volunteer emotional support animal for children’s hospitals.

AVA

Ava is a three year old Australian Shepard Mix who was rescued as a puppy from a local shelter. She is an extremely intelligent dog who values her own independence. In the three years that we've known her, we've never once seen her get tired!

Ava’s effortless athleticism and high drive make her a dream to work with. She is currently training for a career in agility and sheep herding.
