About Maximilian

I'm Maximilian, and I serve as Productions Director here at Partners Dog Training. I'm an Arizona native with a lifelong passion for film and capturing special moments on camera. I didn't grow up around dogs myself, but I always loved visiting friends' houses and getting to know their dogs along the way.

Coming to Partners gave me that same sense of home and family, and I connected with the environment and the team right away. For four years now I've gotten to tell the stories of our clients and their dogs, especially in DaySchool, DayCamp, and Behavior Camp, and I still love every bit of it.

What Maximilian loves

Training Philosophy

I believe every dog's training journey deserves to be told honestly. My job is to be behind the camera during DaySchool, DayCamp, and Behavior Camp, capturing the real moments of Teaching, Reinforcing, Proofing, and Maintenance as they happen, so families can see their dog's progress for themselves. A good story does not need embellishing. It just needs someone paying close attention.

Ideal Client & Goals

My ideal client is anyone who feels comfortable and confident in front of a camera and ready to share their journey with us. When a family is relaxed and open on camera, the story we tell together comes out real, and that is what makes it worth watching.

Experience

I've spent four years in the dog training industry, all of it here at Partners Dog Training, building my skills behind the camera while learning the ins and outs of DaySchool, DayCamp, and Behavior Camp along the way. That combination lets me capture training moments that actually show a dog's real progress, not just a staged shot.

Favorite moment: One of my favorite training moments was filming an adorable dachshund puppy named Sopita, who was always a joy to work with and to hold. I might be a little biased, since my favorite breed happens to be a dachshund.
