Mike Teh discovered his passion for dog training 23 years when he discovered a dog training club across the street from his family’s business in South St Paul, MN. As a kid, he would wonder over to the dog club and watch the different classes they would offer. The members of the club were very welcoming and from there, the “spark” for dog training was ignited.
Mike acquired On The Run Canine Center in January 2022 from founder Michelle Schwartzbauer and is super excited to continue to innovate On The Run Canine Center in its growth into the future.
In addition to teaching and operating On The Run, he is also a AKC & UKI Agility Judge, Seminar Presenter, and Fully Licensed AKC Agility Trial Secretary.
Currently, Mike has three dogs (2 Border Collies and 1 Australian Koolie) that he competes with in Agility, Scentwork, FastCat, and K9 Frisbee.
