Local Partners

As a locally owned business in Sherwood OR, Marvin Pierce Dog Teacher actively partners with the Newberg Animal Shelter.
We currently help the Newberg Animal Shelter adopt out one dog per month at no charge and give them the opportunity for tailor-made training with the goal of helping them find their fur-ever homes.
Many homes in Sherwood are filled with great dogs since we have begun partnering with Newberg Animal Shelter.
We now maintain a strong relationship with Newberg Veterinary Hospital and are recommended by them to work with all types of obedience and behavioral modifications for dogs. We are also groomer-recommended.

Offering private lessons and group clinics, The Dog Teacher has been able to change the lives of dog owners by helping them develop and maintain an obedient dog.
