Obedience
Training at Its Best!
Those of you who live in the Pacific Northwest are used to seeing
Diane Colvin in the obedience and rally rings at the shows, quite
often coming out with high class placements and/or
achieving High In Trial at the events.
This page is dedicated to Diane for her hard work, dedication to
the breed and for what she has done with the Von Marc dogs
(and many others not of our breeding) that she has trained. We
are pleased to present a few of her accomplishments here and are
very thankful to her for helping us achieve what we have with
our dogs in the obedience rings. She trains our dogs AND me to
present them! She can do the same for YOU!
She trains all breeds!
If you’d like to talk to Diane about training for
your personal dog, you can contact her at 208-290-1946 (days) or
208-683-7111 (eves). She is currently taking dogs for in-house
training and will train in all areas from basic housebreaking
and walking on a leash to putting a “come” on your dog. For
those of you interested in competitive obedience, Diane trains
with positive, motivational training starting out in basic
obedience, and continuing from rally through advanced UDX
training. While your dog is at her home, they live in her house
and are treated as one of her family. They receive the utmost
care and attention to all details of their training. Diane is
also available for private lessons. All you have to do is to
watch her and the dogs she trains in the ring.......you can see
the adoration they have for her and the willingness she instills
in them to work.
