About Indiana Dog Whisperers
We’re Vernon Taylor and Marci Burk, the team behind Indiana Dog Whisperers.
We don’t believe most dogs are “bad,” “stubborn,” or “dominant.”
In our experience, dogs are usually confused, anxious, or reacting to unclear leadership in the home.
That’s what we help fix.
We’ve worked with dogs other trainers gave up on — and with families who felt completely stuck.
40+ years of combined hands-on experience working with dogs and their owners.
Our In-Home Training Approach
Our work focuses on calm, clear leadership and addressing the root cause of behavior — not masking problems with commands, food, or repetitive drills.
Training happens in your home, where the behavior actually exists.
That’s why many issues improve the same day when done correctly.
No long programs.
No weekly sessions.
No dragging things out.
Just practical guidance you can use every day.

This video is an early look at our approach to working with dogs and their owners.
We’ve been helping families create calmer, more balanced homes for many years — and the core philosophy hasn’t changed.
