Sean Miller

Sean Miller is the owner of the American Dog School in Denver. He is a professional dog trainer with over 15 years of experience. Sean specializes in behavior modification, obedience (all levels), and protection work.

Sean began training dogs when he was a teenager. He later apprenticed under a trainer with extensive police, military, sport, and detection experience. Sean began training pet dogs because he saw a large percentage of dogs whose owners had no control, even though they may have already been to other trainers. Sean bought the American Dog School in Denver because he saw a growing need in this area for a professional trainer who utilized many techniques with a strong focus in motivational training.
