I am Clairisse Schwanz, owner and trainer for Shadow Dog LLC. I am a reward based trainer that focuses on relationship building, play, fun, and the often overlooked environmental rewards that help our canine friends make good choices without being micromanaged. Shadow Dog implies our handling starts silent and simple, to create dogs who love to shadow you.
Dog training is just as much about the handler, and I do my best to understand any social significance with those I work with. Dog training is an industry where it's important to work together and uplift each other, because at the end of the day, it's about making sure dogs and their handlers can enjoy life together.
I am a CGC/STAR/Trick dog evaluator. Previously, I trained group classes like STAR Puppy, CGC, and sport foundations through The Olean Kennel Club and am completing Dr. Ian Dunbar's SIRIUS® Dog Trainer Academy seminars. As always, I continue to expand my understanding of dog training.

Clairisse came directly to our house to help train our year old puppy! It was super easy to work around our busy schedules!
Clairisse's knowledge and methods are second to none! Our dog learned more in an hour with her than during an entire year of trying on our own.
The entire process was extremely professional and courteous. Very easy to work with and schedule. Clairisse made training as fun for us as she did with our dog!
