About Schertzer Training

I started dog training as a child on my family's Weimaraner in Binghamton, NY. Recently, I began once more on my adopted Dobermann Pinscher. My success with him encouraged me to train dogs full-time. I have attended Johnson & Wales Culinary School, the University of Rhode Island College of Business Administration, the U.S. Marine Corps, and Hurricane Island Outward Bound School. My attempt to "Be the change you wish to see in the world" compels me to fix bad dog parents so they can raise civilized and well-behaved dogs in my town.

I started "Schertzer Training" once I retired from my career as a global leader in fine dining restaurants. My passion for dog training was embraced in 1990's California as an instructor and Schutzhund competitor. I have raised several powerful dogs such as Rottweilers, Dobermann Pinschers, American Bulldogs, an XL American Bully, and an Alaskan Malamute. Now, I am making America a better place one good dog at a time by training the housepets of Naples, Florida. I am the proud Dog Dad of "Bullet" the XL American Bully. Dog training gives me great satisfaction due to my paternal nature and attention to detail.
