Amy Cranmer

Understanding Fido offers clients a variety of positive, rewards-based training options occurring in the home or in the community. Our goal is to work alongside clients to improve their dogs' skills and confidence...and to strengthen the bond between the dogs and the humans who love them. Amy is a graduate of Clemson University and of the Medical University of South Carolina. Her degrees and career prior to being a dog trainer focused on observation, assessment, and shaping of behaviors and skills. She spent decades educating and collaborating with her colleagues, clients, and their families which refined her communication skills and her team approach. Now, her “non-dog” career continues to be an invaluable experience from which she draws as she supports her training clients and their dogs holistically.

Dara Evans Wittenberg

I started working as a dog trainer 6 years ago, as I wanted to keep as many dogs as possible out of the shelter: so many of them are sent there for issues that could be addressed with some compassionate, focused, and positive training. Each animal is different, has different needs, motivations, and learning styles, and I’ll work with you and your dog to give you both the specific guidance you need. Whether you’re thinking about getting an animal, have a new pet, or already own a pet with behavioral problems, I am here to help.I have worked with shelter organizations, volunteered with the Behavior team for the ASPCA, and these experiences have taught me so much and made me a better trainer.The best dog trainers will teach you what motivates your dog and how to communicate clearly with your companion animal so that you can build a lifelong bond that enriches both of your lives.I hope i get to work with you!
