Michael Deathe Cpdt-Ka Email and Phone Number

Mike Deathe is a stay-at-home dad who found his passion as a dog trainer in 2008. He is the author of Keep It Simple Stupid (K.I.S.S.) Pet Blog, and has written several books on dogs and dog training. As an avid pet lover, he regularly sees the number of dogs and cats that never find a home, so in 2009, he founded Muttz “R” Us, a funny T-Shirt venture with the motto of “Saving Pets…One T-Shirt at a Time” In 2010 KEEP IT SIMPLE STUPID (KISS) DOG TRAINING was born and since then has been teaching dogs and owners in their homes and at Broadmore Kennels, in Shawnee, Ks, and Queen of Paws in Prairie Village, Ks. Besides dog training Mike has done all sorts of other stuff including; co-hosting a radio show, Q&A for several T.V. stations, been a district manager, operations manager, and even done some sales training in his past… In the end, what Mike really is, is a teacher! Whether dogs, business, or life in general… His greatest passion is helping others! Now for a word from Mike,“Being able to train “any dog” is really not the question to ask. As far as I am concerned, training people is a much more effective way of solving problem behaviors in dogs. What I do is nothing new or magical. I use basic behavior theory, and positive reinforcement techniques to change behavior or teach proper ones, to begin with. There are many ways to train a dog and if done right, none are any better than the other. I want all of my students to understand that positive reinforcement is, in my opinion, the best and fastest way to teach a dog. Please take the time to go to my website www.kissdogtraining.com, look at my blog (keep it simple stupid pet blog) and decide for yourself. You should not make training decisions based on a brochure; talk to at least three trainers; check out blogs and get references; then make your choice. I hope that in the end, you will choose me as your trainer.”
