183 City of Miami K9 Cop, Master Dog Trainer, Podcaster, and Entrepreneur Garret Wing! (Part Two)
Description
Welcome back everyone to the conclusion of my two-part interview with retired City of Miami Police Lieutenant and Master Dog Trainer Garret Wing.
Garret Wing grew up in a law enforcement family. His father, mother, stepmother, and stepfather were all city of Miami cops. His father and stepmother were K9 officers. It makes sense that Garret entered the police academy at the tender age of nineteen.
Garret was assigned a K9 after only two years on patrol and quickly rose through the ranks of the police department promoting to lieutenant and worked a variety of highly sought-after specialty units.
After eighteen and a half years, Garret did something unheard of for most cops in his position. He left the police department and went into business for himself.
Taking this leap of faith and following his passion for training dogs, he founded American Standard Dog Training and DIY K9. He has now devoted his life to training civilian dogs and has turned this passion into a very successful seven-figure business!
Please enjoy this entertaining and informative interview with a true entrepreneur.
