about Green creek canine

Welcome to Green Creek Canine. We are located in Ishpeming, Michigan, just off of County Road 581. Heather Mongiat is a Certified Professional Dog Trainer (CPDT-KA) and one of the only Fear Free Certified Animal Trainers in the Upper Peninsula. She has more than 20 years of personal and professional experience with dogs and has worked at a local veterinary clinic since 2004 as a veterinary assistant and receptionist.

In addition to training, Heather has volunteered with Superiorland Pet Partners since 2010. Over those years she has had four therapy dogs that she has trained, tested and volunteered with. She is also a team member at Conservation Dogs Collective Inc. with her yellow Labrador, Bronty, where they help find rare, invasive or just simply hard to find species.

Heather has had a passion for dogs since childhood, starting with labs and a recreational sled dog team of Siberian huskies. Along with her husband, two young boys and baby girl, she shares her home with one rescued pit bull, two yellow labs, one Dutch Shepherd, two cats, two horses, some chickens, and countless pet-sitting dogs that have become a part of the family.
