Brandi Moore, CPDT-KA
Spot On Dog Training Center - owner
Brandi has been training dogs with positive reinforcement, science and relationship based methods for over twenty-five years. She's worked with hundreds of dogs with various training and behavioral challenges during that time. She believes that connecting with her human students, as well as her canine ones, with understanding and a sense of humor is a must! She knows that each dog is different, and will work with yours to give them the individualized guidance that they need.
Brandi has been competing in dog sports for many years. She has competed in Canine Agility for fifteen years, earning numerous championships and titles with her three Shelties, McLeod, Bonnie and Mac, and her Border Collie, McKenzie. She has also competed in Rally obedience, earning multiple titles with McLeod. She has recently started competing in the new (Super FUN!) sport of SpeedWay, earning titles with both McKenzie and her young rescue dog, Aila!
Brandi continually updates her knowledge and skills as a trainer and competitor by participating in a variety of training classes and seminars with nationally and internationally competing instructors, both in person and online.
Brandi strives to help you achieve your training goals by building a trusting relationship between you and your dog, while you learn together; using positive reinforcement to create focus and control; all while having lots of fun!

MAYA ROBINSON, CPDT-KA
Maya's love of dog training started when she volunteered at the ASPCA in NYC. While she was there, she helped take care of the shelter dogs and took them to the basic obedience classes to help them become more adoptable. She later started working at another shelter, Animal Haven where she worked for 9 years. At Animal Haven, she was the Behavior and Enrichment manager for the dogs. She developed the enrichment program for the shelter dogs and was responsible for setting up behavior modification programs for the dogs that needed a little bit of help getting adopted. She would also help newly adopted dogs settle into their new homes.
Maya's dog Pebbles has her Canine Good Citizen certificate, competes in the higher levels of agility and has her novice Tricks title. Her younger dog, Pips has his CGC, novice Tricks title and is learning how to do agility. Maya is a member of the Association of Pet Dog Trainers (APDT), the Pet's Professional Guild (PPG) and the International Association of Animal Behavior Consultants (IAABC).
Maya has been part of the Spot On Dog Training Center team since 2020! She is a Certified Professional Dog Trainer (CPDT-KA) ccpdt.org.
