Welcome to
Led by: Brittany Schneller – Founder & Head Trainer
train for Reality
Led by Brittany Schneller, the Canine Cardio
Academy uses our Train for Reality™ method —
a balanced training philosophy inspired by
professionals like Tom Davis, The K9 Method,
Pack Leader University, and Pack Leader Dogs.
We focus on calm confidence, fair structure,
and communication that empowers both dogs
and owners. Every program starts with a
behavioral evaluation and is customized to
achieve real-world results — not just
obedience, but confidence and control in
everyday life.
Brittany Schneller
– Founder of Canine Cardio & Head Trainer
For nearly two decades, Brittany has immersed herself in every facet of canine care — from dog walking and daycare leadership to working as a veterinary technician, trainer, and foster for German Shepherds and other power breeds.
Her hands-on experience with hundreds of dogs revealed one simple truth: dogs thrive on consistency, structure, and calm leadership. Traditional daycares often overstimulate or exhaust dogs without fulfilling them mentally. Brittany designed Canine Cardio to change that — focusing on enrichment, emotional balance, and physical fitness.
Every program — from our daycare model to our training methods — is built on Brittany’s real-world experience and her commitment to helping dogs live more confident, balanced lives.
