USAF Veteran & Dog Trainer

Pet care experience

I am a USAF Veteran who has had family dogs my whole life to include German Shepherds, Golden Doodles, Pomeranians, and Dachshunds. I currently have an 9 year old Boxer named Chutley (after my all-time favorite Phillie Chase Utley) who is just the absolute best and a 1 year old Boxer Gracie who is a tiny ball of energy and fun! I live in Manayunk/Roxborough with Chutley and my 5 year old daughter who adores dogs of all shapes and sizes. I am reliable, responsible, flexible and easy to communicate with. I love being able to utilize all the dog friendly areas around me such as Wissahickon Park, Forbidden Drive, the Tow Path, and Kelly Drive. I am a dog trainer and have my own business All Canines. I am well versed to handle all types of dogs and I know how to read a dogs body language to ensure they always feel safe. I have worked with puppies who need basic obedience training, dogs with anxieties from fear aggression to those who are afraid to leave the house to go on walks. I use scientifically proven forms of communication with dogs to ensure they understand what I ask of them while also making communication fun! If you have any questions about my dog training services please email me any questions at allcanines215 at gmail dot com (rover won’t allow me to put the actual email address). I only take one dog at a time (unless it is a pair) to ensure that your pup receives the care and attention that they would at home. I do my best to understand what routines and rules your dog is used to at home in order to give you both complete comfort and to give you dog the consistency and structure he or she needs. Find and follow me on Instagram! @allcanines215 ***For new Rover customers!*** use promo code MICHAP91835 for $20 off first booking Feel free to contact me with any questions!

Michael did a great job walking our young lab, Millie! He even did some training along the way. He was punctual, and made great distance with her. Will definitely use again!

This is the second I’ve used Michael’s service. Both times were very positive experiences. I trust Michael with the key code to my house and I have peace of mind knowing my pets are in his care. Michael is attentive, punctual, and keeps me updated.
