Joyce Morgan has more than 30 years of experience working with dogs. She has trained and shown many dogs, and has five Obedience Trial Champions (OTCh) to her credit. She also earned the first Utility Dog Excellent title (UDX) in Austin.
While her own dogs are poodles, she has a wealth of experience in dog training with all breeds and sizes of dogs.
Joyce travels all around the country exhibiting her dogs at AKC licensed obedience trials.
Margaret started her obedience career by training a German shepherd in 1972. She has trained 6 German shepherds, 4 Pembroke Welsh corgis, and a miniature poodle. She has earned 8 CDs, 1 CDX and 1 UDX. Margaret's successful record as a breeder of German shepherds and corgis speaks for itself: multiple champion shepherds, with 2 earning Register of Merit titles. Margaret currently teaches the intermediate class at Joyce Morgan Dog Training Center. This is the class that immediately follows the basic class, and precedes the class where dogs are "polished" for competition in the novice (companion dog) obedience class in AKC trials.
Marty began training dogs in 1958 with her doberman which obtained a UD. Since then she has trained a variety of breeds, including a German shepherd, poodles, vizslas, and a papillon. She has earned multiple CDs and CDXs, and has trained a Vizsla to a UD, and a poodle to a UDX. In 1960 Marty's doberman ranked in the top 10 in the U.S. Her vizslas have been highly ranked in Front and Finish for multiple years. Her current Vizsla, Lucy, is also the top Novice Rally dog in Vizslas. In addition to obedience and rally, Marty has also titled dogs in conformation, tracking, and hunt tests, and she enjoys therapy dog work. Marty teaches the novice class, and often helps with the basic obedience classes. She enjoys working with all students, and particularly enjoys helping those preparing for competition.
Charlene began with her first boxer, Nellie, which went from dragging her owner down the street to the top boxer in obedience competition in the United States for three years! This was not a fluke as her next dog, a Pembroke Welsh corgi, became the top obedience Pembroke in the United States for three years. Since that time Charlene has had many wonderful boxers that have earned conformation championships and obedience titles.
