Dogs Wiggles and Grins creator and owner, Toni Klemko, has extensive first-hand knowledge and broad experience with what dogs need and want to live happy, fulfilling lives. Toni is a retired professional dog trainer and has taught many dog owners how to satisfy their dog’s innate needs to become wonderful canine citizens. As a rescuer for over 15 years she appreciates the challenges many dogs face and has an exceptional instinct for ways to help them overcome these challenges. The choice of products offered on Dogs Wiggles and Grins is a reflection of this experience and will certainly provide any dog owner with positive solutions to their own dog’s challenges.

Having worked the retail side of animal products for over 15 years, Toni is all too familiar with the need for dependable, long-lasting, safe products and provides choices that satisfy those high standards. She has experience as a trained groomer and her own canine crew has provided her with opportunities for personal feed-back on what products work like magic and can help dog owners pamper their canine pals and make them look like they are ready for the big show.

As you can see, we have all types of coats to look after and different challenges when it comes to training equipment. I am a positive method trainer. I only use equipment that will work.

Teki: Akita

Teki is my fully trained Therapy Dog. She has passed all her test and is certified. Teki is the ruler of the house. All she has to do is smile to let the other dogs know what to do..

Tilly: Pit Bull

I still don't know if I'm up for a Terrier. True to the Terrier type she is a ball of energy. I wanted a Pit Bull to train for Therapy Dog and Agility Dog. Of course I would not buy one as I am a rescuer. Deuces Blue Pits donated Attila to me to help change the Pit Bull image. She has finished her Advance classes and is well on her way to the Therapy Dog. She finished her puppy agility training in 2006. Her first doggie friend was an Akita. She is soooo unafraid of large dogs. Tilly is my peacemaker. She doesn’t have a mean bone in her body.

Indiana: Pit Bull

We rescued Indy from the local shelter. He had a crushed leg. When we got it fixed the vet said he would be good as new and he is. Within the first year of living here, he saved our house from burning to the ground. We had emptied ashes to close to the house and it caught on fire. Thank God for Indy..

Nella : Australian Cattle Dog Blue Heeler

Nella was on death row at an Ohio shelter. Nobody wanted a very young cattle dog. She is a bundle of energy. I had her transported to us and have never regretted the decision. She is the class clown.
