About the Skiplyn Team

The Skiplyn Kennels Dog Training Team is made up of passionate, skilled individuals from all walks of the dog world. With backgrounds in training, grooming, dog sitting, veterinary care, and dog sports, our team brings a wide range of expertise under one roof.

Each trainer has been handpicked and personally mentored by Tammy, who has spent many years developing a team that shares her dedication, experience, and high standards. She’s worked closely with a select group of individuals—those who’ve shown the commitment, patience, and heart it takes to become truly great dog trainers.

About Tammy St-Louis
Owner & Head Trainer

I am Tammy St. Louis, the owner and operator of Skiplyn Kennels Dog Training. I have always lived with multiple dogs and training dogs is my profession and passion. I have owned a variety of dogs and have competed and trained in many dog sports for more than two decades. 

I have been teaching people how to train their dogs continuously since 1997, running classes upstairs at the Garson Arena and then the Wahnipatae Community Center.  In 2009 I purchased the church building in Garson to become a permanent, dedicated training school, the only one of its kind in Northern Ontario.

Tammy's Dogs

“My dogs don’t come trained When you see me with well behaved dogs it’s because I worked hard for it.”
