CHANGE HAS COME FOR
FRESNO DOG TRAINING
by Kim Toepfer

The success of my training business has exceeded my
expectations! It has been wonderful to meet and work with so
many dedicated dog owners. However, I am embarking on
some new dog-related adventures and I need to carve some
time out of my life to take them on. As such, I will be adding
some other local trainers as resources to my website. I will still
be teaching the occasional class and handling some problem
cases, but you should expect to see me in print more than in
person soon. Many of the trainers that will appear at Fresno
Dog Training are graduates of the Animal Behavior College
and have worked with me personally during the externship
phase of their coursework. Please welcome all of the skilled
professionals who appear here and patronize their classes.
