C&C PALS -- Teaching people how to train their dogs

Thank you for your interest in Merit Puppy Training. Due to the untimely passing of Merit’s owner and founder, Dawn Sylvia-Stasiewicz, we are no longer accepting clients.

However, Merit Puppy is pleased to recommend C&C PALS, LLC, owned by a long-time friend and colleague of Dawn’s, Carole Peeler. Similar to Merit Puppy Training’s methods, C&C PALS trainers are committed to teaching an approach that is fun and positive for humans and dogs alike and which allows all members of the family, including children, to train effectively.

C&C PALS offers a full range of group classes for the life of your dog, from puppy socialization and learning to advanced obedience, as well as in-home private lessons and behavioral consultations. For more information on C&C PALS, including upcoming classes, please use the menu bar below.
