We help people and dogs thrive together. We are on a mission to improve communication between humans & dogs.Dogs and people speak different languages. We use words, but dogs communicate non-verbally. They see the world at a higher frame-rate than we do. Every little twitch of an eyebrow or an ear can have meaning to our pups. We help you understand how dogs communicate, so you and your pup can be on the same page every time you interact. This helps unlock better behavior and a more fulfilling relationship.Our philosophy: P.E.T.Partnership: we help you strengthen your bond with your dog, by creating open communication and clear understanding of each other’s needsEmpathy: we help you unlock the meaning in non-verbal communication, so you can hear what your dog is saying and respond to their needsTrust: when you understand each other, behavior and relationships improve, and everyone becomes more at-ease

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.
