Do you have a dog yourself? Maybe if you titled your own dog, your credentials would be more appealing?

Joe...i hope you know it would help if you listed your location, your experience even with a few dogs that you stated you trained, what you had done and what you are good at, video, photos that always helps...also if and when you get contacted anyone who is serious would ask you for references or even letters of recommendation...you know the basic stuff....
you are asking people to trust you with their dogs...no different than asking if you can use someones loaded weapon...depending on how serious you are and committed you may want to at least invest in some basic marketing.....it  would have helped to observe especially this forum before posting...just an opinion Joe...look before you leap...

Some ideas....

1) Train and title your own dogs
2) See about being an apprentice under another trainer who titles and trains dogs
3) Gather written references from the people you are currently training

Is this is it?

Joe, I hope people here don't tear you down too harshly because you're obviously into dog training, and that's great. You aren't ready to title dogs for other people. To even do decoy work for others when you are not trained is unfair to the owners you're working with, and detrimental to their dogs.

There are many excellent trainers in WI/IL that you can work with to become better. Title your own dog, as many times over as you can. Then title your next one. Then your next one. Go to seminars! Flinks will be in WI in May. What part of WI are you from? There are SchH clubs all over the midwest.

No one serious about having their dog titled is going to give you, or anyone else in your position, their dog as a guinea pig. You have to get out there and prove yourself first. Best of luck to you.

i am working with some one but the deal is i have to bring my own dog to training and he trains us both thats why i was willing to train for just the cost of the owner paying food and all not for a profit my profit is i get more training the owners profit is they get a titled dog

really really nice looking dog. seems like the dogs attention spam is kinda low?
how old is your dog?

and just looking at the video, does he have problems with people being behind him?
maybe unsure?
what lines?

i know your trying to get another dog to train from someone else
but i would never ship or leave me dog at a another person house to get trained.
either im there, watching and learning or nothing else.

my dog comes to work with me, comes to canadian tire with me, care rides you make it hes there.
you gottta understand for MOST people they get a dog to be part of the family.

would you ship your kid across the country to get potty trained?

just my 2 cents.

i agress get your own dog titled, go to show him off, and people will come to you.
i own my own company, all my clinets are threw word of mouth.
show everyone what you can do, and then your phone will be ringing off the hook.

cheers
