chaniece denielle
Instructor & Groomer
Chaniece has spent the last 15 years continuing her education to not only understand your dogs better but also her own through every life stage. She is owned by 5 dogs, Levi (13) and Brin (12.5) miniature dachshunds who have taught her the unlimited potential of harnessed chaos. Benedict (11.5) and Martin (12) who have helped her unleash her creativity in ways she didn't know existed and have helped master the art of grooming. Then the baby dog Velma (Bloodhound) who taught her to think outside the box and not allow others to decide your potential. Chaniece's goal is to help owners understand a more mindful way of enhancing their pets lives through fitness and enrichment activities, while helping pets and owners live a stronger and more fulfilled life together.
