About Geralyn:
Geralyn Kelly has been working with dogs since 2002. She began in a daycare/kennel environment where she gained valuable firsthand knowledge about canine behavior. In 2004, after two years at the daycare/kennel, Geralyn began her training career and has never looked back! She began training at a large corporate pet store chain, where she learned everything from ethics, the scientific study of animal behavior, to learning theory and how dogs learn. The core of Geralyn’s belief is that to be a great dog trainer; you must know everything about them from their origins, background, recent changes in breeds, and how their minds work. To expand her education, she has attended seminars, workshops, and conferences and met some greats like Ian Dunbar, Sophia Yin, Victoria Stillwell, and Suzanne Hetts. After three years in the corporate world, Geralyn left the pet store chain to pursue a career with a private kennel. She developed the entire training program for this kennel from the ground up, where she trained Obedience, Agility, and Flyball!
In 2008, Geralyn relocated to Winston-Salem and spent four more years working for a corporate pet store chain as Store Trainer and Area Trainer, where she not only held many classes in the store but also trained numerous other trainers who have gone on to have successful training careers. During this assignment, she trained dogs in obedience and rallying.
In December 2012, Geralyn decided to reach more animals and work more closely with their human handlers and rescue groups, so she opened her own training center, Elite Canine!
