Meet Jasmine

Jasmine is the head trainer at Golden Mal Dog Training. At a young age, her family’s volunteering with the renowned organization, Guide Dogs for the Blind, sparked Jasmine’s interest in dog training. Through researching in her spare time, attending seminars, and volunteering with rescues, Jasmine did all she could to learn more.

Prior to the launch of Golden Mal Dog Training, Jasmine spent hands-on time learning from trainers who specialize in pet training, shelter dog rehabilitation, guide dog training, and police-k9s. Her specialty, however, lies in service dogs.

When Jasmine isn’t training dogs, she loves going on hikes, photography, and traveling.

Meet Marilyn

Marilyn is one of our trainers who helps serve our board and train clients alongside her own dog training business.

At a very young age, she began training her American Eskimo from the basics to tricks, which is where her spark and love for dogs began. Marilyn has trained under great mentors that have made her the trainer she is today, and she works with all kinds, from pet dogs to dogs with behavioral issues to sport dogs. She competes in the sport IGP with her personal dogs, and has also certified in handling explosive K9s and have been working in detection for the past three years.

In her free time, she enjoys spending it with family or traveling, as well as enjoying time with her pups!
