Since 2000, Alternative Canine Training has served Oakland, Macomb and Wayne County, becoming one of Michigan's most trusted dog training institutions. Founded by certified master trainer Bonny Wainz, our company offers a natural alternative to traditional training methods.
Alternative Canine Training offers a natural alternative to traditional methods. We teach "Doglish" - the natural language of dogs - enabling fast, effective communication between owners and their pets.
As the owner of Alternative Canine Training, Bonny brings to her clients over 35 years of experience. She feels her best attribute is that she loves seeing dogs and their owners living happy, joyful, and peaceful lives together.
Cindi Fleishans is an accomplished dog trainer with many years of rescue work and deep involvement in the assistance dog field. In addition to tutoring clients of Alternative Canine Training (ACT), Cindi has dedicated hundreds of hours each year to the nonprofit program, Sterling Service Dogs.
I started out with Alternative Canine Training as a client 20 years ago. From there they needed someone to answer the phones and do all the scheduling I offered and here I am 18 years later still with them. I truly love talking with all the pet parents and getting pictures is my favorite part of the job.
