Calisse Wiseman

Calisse discovered her passion for training when she was only 12 years old while working with her mother’s parrot club. Every year the club received many unwanted parrots, but with the commitment and help from Calisse and others in the club, all of the unwanted, aggressive, and ill parrots regained their status as happy loving pets and are now thriving in wonderful homes. Through her experience training parrots, she began using clicker training and positive reinforcement training to help her grandparents train their show dogs, as well as introduce a few to agility. In 2009 Calisse graduated from Animal Behavior College with a certification in dog training. Shortly after earning her first certification, she decided to move away from home in search of more in-depth training experiences. When she arrived in Colorado her first stop was at Petco where she earned three more certifications; one in dog training, one in nutrition, and one in grooming. With a desire to become more than a simple pet store dog trainer, she joined the Noble Beast Dog Training Team where she could gain experience in multi-dog training and social skills, as well as continue with group and private training without corporate restrictions on public education. In addition to having great experience in working with and teaching the general public how to train not only their dogs but really any pet they have, she is also a Mentor Trainer for Animal Behavior College teaching up and coming trainers how to be trainers! Calisse’s passion for continuing her own education and teaching the public about pet training, pet care, and pet behavior is unbridled and continues to grow every day. In her free time, she runs an exotic pet rescue and does educational shows featuring the pets that she rescues. When she is not working with animals Calisse is putting her fine arts degree to use in creating pet portraits and still life paintings. Noble Beast is honored to have Calisse as a Noble Beast Dog Trainer!
