Pet Logic was created by animal care professionals to promote a positive, force free, & scientifically based approach to training companion animals & the people who care for them.Our mission is to "Strengthen the human/animal bond through education and training."Training is about communication & relationship. The goal should be to teach our animals how to live with us, as well as strengthen our relationship with them. They are not born understanding our language, rules, or expectations. It is our job as their guardians to help them learn & to provide a happy, healthy, fulfilling life.Modern animal training has come a long way since the days of punishment based practices & dominance theory. It has been shown that not only are these outdated methods based on disproven theories, but often lead to aggression, confusion, & learning impairment. The use of pain, fear, & intimidation is unprofessional, unethical, & unnecessary!We believe training should be a fun & positive experience for everyone involved. Through the use of training methods free from pain, fear, or intimidation; we strive to not only help your companion animal through their behavioral issues, but to strengthen your relationship with them as well.Our training is more than just tricks & obedience. It is prevention, socialization, husbandry, & understanding. We want you to truly understand & connect with the animals you share your life with.

Our mission at Ready, Set...Train! is to strengthen the relationshipbetween dogs and humans by creating an open line ofcommunication. We believe in training dogs and teaching people.Dogs learn appropriate ways to act and how to ask for things they want, and people learn how to better understand and communicate with their dogs. Compassion and positive reinforcement are the foundation for accomplishing understanding between you and your canine companion. Training is a partnership. Both the human and animal side of the relationship is important.Behavioral problems are the number one cause of owner frustration and ultimately relinquishment for dogs under the age of three. Most of these behavioral problems can easily be avoided with a positive training approach and plan. Owners can prevent problems before they happen or remedy problems that are already present.Your dog is a family member and that is why we encourage every member of the family to be involved with the training. Our family-friendly approach to training can be learned and implemented by the entire family. Instead of focusing on what the dog is doing wrong, we teach the dog the behaviors we want them to perform. This method is scientifically proven to be the fastest form of training. This is great news for dog owners! Currently, top search and rescue, drug detection, and service dog organizations are adopting these training methods because of fast learning and reliable results.We believe that learning is a life-long endeavor. Our goal is to become better trainers and teachers for our clients and their animals. We attend continuing education events, acquire certifications, and participate in college-level courses to deepen our understanding of animal behavior.We hope you will choose Ready Set...Train! for your training and behavior needs!

Frequently asked questions about dog training
How much does dog training cost?
Dog training costs vary by type and location. Group classes typically run $50–$200 for a multi-week session. Private sessions range from $50–$150 per hour. Board and train programs can cost $500–$2,500+ per week depending on the trainer and length of program.
What dog training methods are most effective?
Positive reinforcement is widely considered the most effective and humane dog training method. It rewards desired behaviors rather than punishing unwanted ones. Look for trainers certified by organizations like CCPDT, IAABC, or Karen Pryor Academy.
How long does dog training take?
Basic obedience typically takes 4–8 weeks of consistent training. Behavior modification for issues like aggression or separation anxiety may take 3–6 months. Every dog learns at their own pace — consistency and practice between sessions are key.
What certifications should a dog trainer have?
Look for trainers certified by CCPDT (Certified Professional Dog Trainer), IAABC (International Association of Animal Behavior Consultants), or the Karen Pryor Academy. These certifications require demonstrated knowledge and adherence to humane training standards.
