Sergio, the founder of Harley and Sergio Dog Training, is a retired Marine who transitioned into dog training under the mentorship and guidance of Nate Schoemer, a Master Dog Trainer and fellow Marine. Nate recognized Sergio's potential during a handlers course that Sergio attended with Harley. Encouraged by Nate, Sergio pursued professional dog training. With Nate's ongoing guidance, Sergio has honed his skills, dedicating himself to the art and science of dog training with a commitment to excellence and a thorough understanding of dog behavior.
Jade, together with her husband Sergio Esquivel, co-owns Harley and Sergio Dog Training, fueled by a lifelong affection for animals. It was Sergio who unveiled the world of dog training to her, sparking an immediate and deep-seated passion. Her enthusiasm has only been amplified by her love for Harley and Teddy, and she's currently dedicating herself to nurturing and training Fozzie, the latest adorable member of the Harley and Sergio Dog Training team. While she plays a crucial role in overseeing the business's operations, Jade is simultaneously refining her expertise as a dog training apprentice.
Harley, the quintessential big sister, effortlessly takes charge in both her role as Sergio's service dog and as the star demo dog at Harley and Sergio Dog Training. A generous gift from fellow veteran Nate Schoemer, Harley not only excels in demonstrating training techniques but also has a unique knack for working with puppies. Sweet, playful, and Sergio’s closest companion, she sets the tone for the team. Leading Teddy and Fozzie, Belgian Tervurens, she epitomizes the dedication and excellence of their training offerings.
Meet Teddy, the spirited service dog in training who's learning the ropes under Harley's watchful eye. Teddy is all about fun, whether that's play-biting, wrestling, or sneaking off with shoes for a quick dash outside. His love for life and playful nature make every training session something to look forward to. But it's not all fun and games; Teddy is also hard at work honing his skills to become a dependable and faithful companion. With Harley guiding him, Teddy is well on his way to becoming an incredible service dog, ready to spread joy and lend a helping hand wherever it's needed.
Hey everyone! I'm thrilled to introduce the latest furry addition to our family, Unstuffed Bear Du Poilu, but we're calling him Fozzie for short. Fozzie isn't just any dog. He's set to become the star demonstration dog at Harley and Sergio Dog Training. At first glance, Fozzie might seem a little shy, but don't let that fool you. Give him a tug toy, and you'll see a completely different side of him. He transforms into a lively bear, bursting with energy and ready to embrace every challenge. We're all incredibly excited to see Fozzie's journey, as he learns new tricks and embarks on countless adventures. Keep an eye out for all the exciting and furry stories we'll share with Fozzie by our side!
