In addition to training experience, Caden has over five years of volunteer experience working with shelter dogs, and certifications in both canine CPR and First Aid from The American Red Cross.
During college, Caden began training shelter dogs out of his college apartment. Since then, he has made it his goal to provide the people of Cleveland with high quality training and dog care solutions. Armed with an impressive professional network within the dog training industry, his mission is to educate people on how to better understand their dogs.
