About The Clever Canine

The Clever Canine LLC describes itself as a team of dog trainers working in Morgantown and surrounding areas, training dogs and owners in their own homes since 2008. Its stated approach is a kind one that honors both owner and dog, and the site describes the business as experienced, helpful and vet-recommended. Several trainers are named on the site alongside the founder.

Individual training is described as covering obedience, fun skills and dog sport performance polishing, as well as more serious issues named on the site as leash reactivity and separation anxiety.
