Studio trained dogs are available from The Canine Stars Team and Stunt Dog School Graduates world wide - in over 14 countries.

The Canine Stars Fans, Students, and Graduates of our Stunt Dog School are invited to join us in our Community for Dog Trainers.
Our trainers volunteer with rescue groups & shelters to help transport dogs to their newly adopted families & rescue groups.
Any dog, of any breed, of any age, with any past – can achieve greatness. We support and promote rescue & adoption.
Our aim is to inspire and educate youth. We share heartwarming rescue stories about our dogs, and we demonstrate how TEAMWORK makes the impossible possible for the “underdog.”
All of the dogs are individually owned and loved by their trainers – they are family first! We all started as "normal" pet owners, turned into crazy dog show competitors, and now entertain professionally with our dogs.
The Canine Stars was founded in 2012 by Keri Caraher, President. Keri and Ethan Wilhelm, Vice President, have been performing and competing with their dogs for over 20 years.
