History
Established in 2016.
Miranda Morehead, founder of Intelligent Canine, grew up with a host of family dogs. Some lived inside, some lived outside, some came to her childhood home as puppies, others as adults in need of a great home. Each of these many dogs came with unique personalities and preferences. Some were brilliant with childern, while others preferred adults. Some were cuddlers always looking for someone wanting to scratch their ears; while others had a stash of throwable objects at the ready just in case someone, ANYONE, wanted to play a little fetch. Miranda might describe a dog as loyal, friendly, hyper, mellow, angry, aggressive, or dangerous; but they are all intelligent. Every dog is born with unique skill sets, it's up to us to figure out what those skill sets are.
Miranda is CPDT-KA certified independently through the Council for Professional Dog Trainers.
Meet the Business Owner: Miranda M.
Miranda and, her husband Mark, share their home with a family of German Shepherds (Zeus, Kya and, their young pup, Gus). Their home may look a little like yours; you might find dog hair floating around on the tile floor, a few nose prints on the front window, and a collection of leashes at every exit. Their dogs also bark; sometimes on cue, sometimes not. They've lost a few shoes to teething puppies over the years and go through a serious amount of eggs and nutritious kibble. Although their home is tough on vacuum cleaners, Miranda's and Mark's dogs sincerely enrich their lives.
