About Dog Focused Care

What they do

Dog Focused Care publishes training package options covering puppy manners, what it calls thoughtful enrichment, and behavior modification training, plus two packages that are unusual in this metro: a cooperative-care package for veterinary handling and a nail and paw-handling package. The site's own framing is behavioral wellness and a health-first philosophy, and it publishes community resources alongside the packages.

Who runs it

The trainer introduces herself in the first person as Cat Schleicher, a certified dog trainer who attended CATCH Canine Trainers Academy and completed its master course. She records working with dogs professionally since 2015, starting in doggy daycares, where she says she was able to observe healthy and unhealthy interactions at scale. Her own dog, a Doberman with Addison's disease, has earned trick titles, a Canine Good Citizen and an odor-recognition test.

Credentials

Brittany Catherine Schleicher is listed in the CCPDT register as CPDT-KA in St. Louis, and in the AKC Canine Good Citizen evaluator register carrying this business's own domain. The registered name and the working name on the site are consistent.
