Mike Suttle



Mike Suttle has been training and raising working dogs for over 20 years. He began with the first working sled dog kennel in West Virginia where he trained Siberian Huskies and Alaskan Malamutes. At thirteen he titled his first dog in obedience. He grew up on a cattle, he learned how to train herding dogs for life stock. In high school he worked as a veterinary assistant. He spent eight years in the U.S.M.C (United States marine core) where he was first introduced to the military working dog program. For the last 10 years he has dedicated his efforts solely on working military and police dogs. He has attended over 50 military and police dog seminars and has spent thousands of hours training with the best police dog trainers throughout the world. Mike has earned titles in Schutzhund, SDA, and AKC, and has trained many police service dogs. Mike has also worked as the co-owner of www.signaturek-nine.com for 5 years where he has developed many new pieces of training equipment, and spent hundreds of hours working in the field with military working dog handlers and police K-9 handlers to discuss training and equipment issues.

This guy is really interesting, I heard about him from my grandmother and my dad told me to do this post. Mike said he is still going to train dogs to help people. I think that it is so cool that he lives in West Virginia. Infact how my grandmother heard of him there was a post in the paper which is the inner mountain.
