Dog trainers are good corporate citizens too!.  As of this past weekend Fidelio Dog Works has become a member of The Austin Independent Business Alliance.  I really can’t think of anything more local than a dog training service so I thought it only right to sign up and support our local businesses.  The thing is, Petsmart, and PetCo are trying to "productize" the dog training world, and while I don’t have a problem with the training these places provide, I just don’t like the fact that the monies generated by the classes go back to their corporate headquarters.  That’s why I try to shope for all of my dog supplies locally at either Bark and Purr, Fetch, or any number of other small shops here in town that cater to the pet world.

 So, being a proud owner of an entirely local business I urge you to support your smaller stores here in town for your pet needs.  And if you need dog training here in Austin, I’ll be glad to help.
