Emerson Greuling

Head Trainer

Emerson's love for animals started at a young age. She was surrounded by animals, from fostering dogs to owning and showing horses. This early exposure to different species instilled in her a deep passion for understanding and working with animals, which eventually led her to pursue a career in dog training.

She attended National K9 and graduated from the Master Trainer Course. She earned the title of Certified Professional Trainer (CPT) and received the following credentials: Basic Obedience, Advanced Obedience, Off Leash Obedience, Breed Identification, Utility, Retrieval, Scent Detection, Tracking, and Assistance Dog training.

She has four (4) years experience training dogs professionally. She competes with her dogs in a variety of dog sports including, Dock Diving (NADD), Conformation (UKC & AKC), Fast CAT, Barn Hunt, and Toss and Fetch.

Meet My Dogs

These are my personal dogs Cooper, Tucker, and Taz.

Cooper is a 5 year old Golden Retriever. He is a Multipurpose Service Dog. In his free time he loves to swim, cuddle, and play. He has passed his CGCA, CGCU and has Advanced Trick dog, BCAT, Dock Senior, and RATI titles. During the 2023 NADD season, he earned a national invite in the senior division for Distance Jump.

Tucker was a 4 year old German Shepherd and my former sport dog. He loved to compete in Dock Diving and Fast CAT. In his free time he loved to play ball, swim, and train. He earned his CGC, Dock Senior, and Novice Trick dog titles. Although he is no longer with us, he left a lasting impact on the program and we miss him dearly.

Taz is a 2 year old Belgian Malinois. He is my current sport dog. He loves to compete in Barn Hunt, Conformation, and Dock Diving. In his free time he loves chasing a frisbee and being cuddled on the couch. He earned his RATI and RATO titles in quick succession and is working on his senior Barn Hunt title.
