Good manners, done for you
We understand busy. That’s why our roster of professional dog trainers do the training for you.
Dog training, elevated
We do it for you
No need to add training to your to-do list. If you’d wanted to become a dog trainer, you’d have, well, become a dog trainer. We get it.
Easy on your schedule
Our trainers schedule one convenient session per week to show you how to enjoy your dog’s excellent new behavior and keep it strong.
Certified dog trainer
In an unregulated field, it’s critical to seek professional education. We love the dogs and our human clients too much to wing it.
All positive methods
Trainers follow the latest in animal behavior science, and are committed to using only effective, force-free methods for your peace of mind.
Quick results
You get there faster because we do it for you—no time wasted on a learning curve you didn’t even want to be on in the first place!
Train-To-Trail Program
Our private tutoring program gets your North Oakland dog ready to enjoy off-leash group hikes or neighborhood walks!
Train-To-Trail is perfect for dogs in Rockridge, Temescal, and Elmwood who need the exercise of regular professional dog walks but aren’t quite ready for prime time. Trainers work on recall, leash skills, basic manners, and social skills to make sure your dog is ready to enjoy safe outings with us.
Train-To-Trail details
3 private dog training walks each week
Trainers works one-on-one with your dog on the trail or in your neighborhood, building the skills necessary for safe, successful group outings.
$300 per week
We require a 4-week minimum training commitment.
It’s our responsibility to keep your dog safe on hikes or walks with us, so we insist on the time needed to do the job right. At the end of the initial three weeks trainers reassess to determine whether your Fido will be ready to join one of our groups. And they’ll always be up front and honest with you if we don’t think your dog is a group walk candidate.
Canine Manners Tutoring Program
Let one of our certified professional dog trainers transform your North Oakland wild child into a well-mannered companion.
Our Canine Manners Tutoring Program is perfect for dogs who jump, pull on leash, ignore requests to come when called, bark a bit more than is warranted, and just generally don’t get the concept of polite manners.
You’ve got plenty on your plate without adding dog training to the list. We’re happy to do that bit for you.
Tutoring Program Details
3 private dog training sessions per week
Trainer works one-on-one with your dog. You don’t even have to be there. Trainer shows off your dog’s progress and teaches you how to enjoy the results of their labor.
$405 per week
We require a 3-week minimum training commitment.
Our job is to make training progress that sticks after we’re gone. We find most cases require 4-6 weeks, depending on your dog and your dog training goals. 3 weeks allows us to make strong progress so you can choose whether to “take the leash” from there or have us continue for you.
