Clembo Dog Training, LLC is applying for government grants to support their continuing education at The Academy for Dog Trainers and to participate in conferences and mentorship opportunities. The business plan includes expanding the dog-walking service into a mentorship program for aspiring dog trainers, with a goal of hiring 5-10 employees after moving to a suitable location for Board and Train services. The owner aspires to speak at national conferences and collaborate with other trainers and researchers on behavior studies.
The funding request emphasizes the owner's identity as a young, queer individual dedicated to canine welfare and community engagement. They prioritize humane, science-based training methods and aim to share these practices with a broader audience.
In terms of competition, the owner believes there are no direct competitors since they collaborate with a network of like-minded trainers, contrasting their methods with those using outdated, aversive techniques.

Business Plan
I intend to extend the dog-walking portion of my business as a mentorship opportunity for aspiring dog trainers. I intend to have 5-10 employees, as well as have moved into a single family home so that I am able to do Board and Trains. I would like to be speaking at conferences nationally, as well as be able to work with other trainers/scientists on behavior research. I am a young, queer, individual with a passion for canine welfare. I place a strong emphasis in my business on community engagement, as well as stewardship of the community. I use humane, science-backed training methods and hope to extend that methodology to a greater audience.

Self Identified Competition
I don't feel that I have competitors. I work with a wide network of humane, science-based dog trainers. We help guide each other, provide insights/perspectives on cases to each other, and happily refer out to each other. I would say that those trainers who are using outdated, aversive methodologies could be considered competition - and I hope to change their minds and get them on board. I am young - the youngest professional dog trainer I've met so far. I have a wealth of knowledge and am constantly improving - I want to stay as far away from complacency as possible. I am continually working with folks to help expand my business knowledge and dog training knowledge - and I feel confident that I can extend a guarantee that we will continue to be succesful.
