Our Team

Melissa George

Melissa is a new trainer who will be working under the mentorship of Bob here at Lietash Canine Academy. Her love of dogs all started when she got her very first dog, a Labrador Retriever, at the age of 8. When Melissa moved to Halifax for school, she would visit the SPCA to walk dogs who were awaiting adoption. In 2018, Melissa and her fiancé got their first dog together, a German Shepherd puppy named Blitz, and enrolled in obedience and agility classes at Lietash Canine Academy. 

Melissa’s dream job has always been to work with dogs and strives to help you create that special bond with and your dog.
