Jeff Murphrey

Co-Owner, Trainer

Jeff Murphrey is co-owner of Canine Country Club. He attended Triple Crown Dog Trainer Academy, the world’s largest and most comprehensive training, behavior, and event center for dogs.

Jeff grew up training animals, both horses and dogs. As a child, he developed a special skill for raising well-mannered animals. His talent and passion for animal training led him to his destination today. After 20 years of practicing law in Houston, Jeff decided to do what he truly loves: care for dogs. He and his wife, Adrienne, have spent the last 2 years planning and preparing for Canine Country Club. He lives in Houston with his wife, three dogs, two guinea pigs and two frogs.
