Through Training
Located in Chesapeake, Virginia, Anchor Up K9 Academy has quickly made a name for itself in the local dog training community. Founded by DeWayne Cabel, Anchor Up stands apart because of DeWayne’s unique approach to dog training: teaching through games.
But as Anchor Up K9 Academy grew, DeWayne needed a reliable platform to manage his business. That’s where Gingr stepped in. “It’s a great platform to communicate with my clients, collect payments easily, select different training plans, and apply discounts,” DeWayne explains.
