Club Director
The heart behind Pink Puppy Club's reward-based approach.
Shanda Burns
Founder & Club DirectorShanda has always had a passion for animals. Before founding Pink Puppy Club, she spent years working as a licensed veterinary technician — time that gave her a deep, hands-on understanding of dog health, behavior, and the bond between pets and their people.
That experience now shapes every class at the club. As a licensed dog trainer, Shanda builds each session around trust and positive reinforcement, meeting every dog — and every owner — exactly where they are.
On 55 acres of Mount Crawford farmland, she's created a place where dogs get room to be dogs, and families get real, lasting tools to bring home.
"A well-trained dog isn't about control — it's about connection. My job is to help you build that with your best friend."
