At Cline Canine Academy we value creating a dog who can be taken anywhere- hikes, patios, downtown strolls, and everyday family life without stress, frustration, or uncertainty. Our goal is to build reliable obedience, clear communication, and calm behavior so you and your dog can confidently enjoy more freedom together in real-world environments.
Lindy Cline is a professional dog trainer dedicated to helping dogs and their owners build lasting relationships through clear communication, structure, and proven training methods. She specializes in puppy training, obedience, behavior modification, and real-world reliability.
Outside of working with family pets, Lindy actively competes in Mondio Ring, one of the world’s most demanding dog sports, with her Belgian Malinois, Sadie and Kelso. She and Sadie competed at the USMRA National Championship, while Kelso is currently training toward his MR1 title.
Competing at a high level allows Lindy to continually sharpen her skills and stay current with modern training techniques. She brings that same level of precision, consistency, and dedication to every dog she works with, helping families achieve lasting obedience and confidence both at home and in public.
When she’s not training clients, Lindy enjoys hiking, swimming, and exploring with her dogs. She believes every dog deserves the opportunity to become a confident, well-mannered companion and every owner deserves the knowledge to help them succeed.
We have a unique set of helpers here at Cline Canine Academy! Everyone in our little family helps in our training programs. My husband Branin helps in training the dogs and he specializes in helping timid dogs come out of their shells!
Each of our pets each serve a unique position in helping our dogs in training feel welcome as a part of our family.
Kelso acts as our welcoming party, he is a very sweet boy and loves playing with new pups!
Sadie is an excellent assistant in obedience, she loves helping dogs learn how to remain neutral & practice their skills around new dogs.
The kitties Calvin and Summer are really great around dogs and help teach new dogs how to properly act around cats! They also provide a unique distraction around the house, nothing quite beats a kitty running by a dogs face while they’re relaxing on their bed!
