Anny Deen

Owner and operator of Deen Adventure Dogs

I decided to make my passion a small business in 2015.

When I’m not actively training or working on our Breeding Program with clients, I am a Wife and Mom. My husband and I, raise three beautiful children ages from thirteen to one years old. Living a busy mom life schedule gives me extra insight when I am working with families.

This is a passion that I’ve had since birth that I blossomed into my career.

I first started in the horse industry back when I was 12 years old. From then to about age 18, I had a small pet sitting gig in my hometown of Loomis, California. Fast-forwarding a few years, I had landed a job at a private 20+ foster dog kennel. Little did I know it would lead me to my true passion of working with dogs. At this job, I worked with hundreds of different breeds, and behavioral issues and even gained knowledge of medical treatments including whelping puppies. This employment is where I was introduced to the Trainer, Eleza Kerfoot of Paws in Progress in Elverta California.

She taught me the many things I know today and also advance the dog handling skills I already obtained. We specialized in behavior modifications of dog aggressive dogs. With that, we were the only training company that hosted socialization classes for our clients to ensure their dogs got the proper education as well as them learning how to read their dog in a social aspect.

We then decided to break off to be able to focus on the part of the industry that spoke to us as individuals, and that’s when I created this business.

Dog Trainer education is never over, with that any chance I get I try to learn from all different types of trainers in the industry. Though I consider myself blessed as a lot of my talent has come naturally to me.

Unlike many Trainers in the industry, I take a huge amount of pride with being able to work with Owners on covering Personal Development that then blends into their dogs. I also ensure my clients gain the understanding and confidence of the training taught to their dog. This is to ensures the best success rate possible!

As a Wife and Mother, I also have a personal idea of how rough it is trying to maintain a household on top of ensuring the dog is getting enough attention let alone a education. With that I am to help my clients navigate figuring out a new life schedule to help shift the things needed, that way they are able to achieve their dog training goals.
