Ken Miller's
Life In Dogs
Ken Miller has been serving the Atlanta area's pet resort and
obedience training needs since 1978. Ken has been training dogs for 40
years. Ken has known
that he would make a profession of caring for and training dogs since his pre-school days.
He credits the love that his parents had for animals, combined with the role modeling of
Lieutenant McCullough of the Passaic, NJ Police Department, as the main reason that he has
devoted his adult life to caring for pets. |
Ken has
280 years in the pet care business. Of course that's only 40
human years, but it's enough to insure that a loving and
experienced person is supervising your pet(s)' care.
Ken
has also been volunteering his professional disc jockey skills and
equipment to local animal related charities for many years. His favorite
charities are Canine Assistants, Canine Companions for Independence, and
the Atlanta Veterinary Association's "Noah's Ark".
Ken has been
training dogs since 1960. He also began training dogs for law enforcement in 1978. Search
and rescue, fugitive apprehension, and drug detection are his specialty, but he has also
provided full service dogs to various law enforcement agencies.

His dog
training accomplishments include:
·
During only
two years of AKC obedience competition, Ken's dogs were awarded 31 high-in-trial awards,
over 100 first place awards, 5 Dog World Awards, 15 obedience titles, and an obedience
trial championship. His dogs have competed in 24 states.
· In search and rescue operations, Ken's dogs have found missing people, two of whom
would have died from their injuries had they not been discovered in time.
· In fugitive apprehension operations, Ken's dogs have been successful in bringing a
number of lawbreakers into custody. In one case, his bloodhound, "Rufus,"
backtracked from an arson scene to the work bench of the arsonist. In another, in Butts
County, "Rufus" backtracked from a murder scene to the home of the alleged
perpetrator.
· Two of Ken's dogs were trained drug detection dogs who made a number of drug-related
arrests.
· Since 1978, Ken has
been taking his dogs to Atlanta area elementary schools to both entertain
and educate the children about alcohol and illegal drug abuse. This
program has resulted in over 20,000 children being signed up to the Fulton
County Sheriff's Reserve Junior Deputies Against Drugs program.
 
Ken Miller
Ken's dogs were known as the Jim Dandy© Dogs for 9 years, until Alpo© bought out Jim
Dandy©. During this period, Ken was responsible for supplying the dogs for all of Jim
Dandy©'s commercials and photographs for pictures on the dog food bags. As of 1995, three
of these pictures are still on the Jim Dandy© bags. Ken's golden, "Mambo," is also known as "Duke," the talking dog
on the Bush Beans© commercials. Ken has supplied dogs for over 120 TV commercials, plus
approximately 35 still shots, for a wide variety of sponsors.

Mambo - aka "Duke"
· In 1988 Ken and "Magic" appeared on
the David Letterman Show.
· Over 10,000 dogs have been through Ken's various training programs.
