Why Online Classes?
Online dog training classes are becoming increasingly popular—and it's easy to see why.
Convenience and Flexibility
You can participate in a class from the comfort of your own home. You don't need to rush out the door after work or drag the kids along. In fact, you can cozy up in your sweats, turn on the Instant Pot, and train your dog while dinner's cooking.
A Good Learning Environment
Let's be honest, trying to listen to instructions while handling your squirmy dog is difficult. Training online allows for deeper discussions and focused conversations, so you can actually learn.
Works for All Dogs
Online training is a great option for dogs that are reactive, anxious, or uncomfortable in new settings. But even the calmest of dogs benefit from learning new skills in familiar, distraction-free environments.
Hear from others who love our online classes...
I've taken [my dog] to an [in person] reactive dog class, but he was deemed too reactive for it, so this online format was nice. I also liked that it was several weeks long and that it provided access to a trainer to ask questions.

Reactive to Relaxed Online Class
My favorite part was actually having classes without the dogs present so that I could focus more on the content, and I liked being able to share experiences with the others in the class.

Reactive to Relaxed Online Class
This training was life changing for me as the human and Duke as the dog. We understand each other better and I feel more confident not only training him, but advocating for his needs in the world.

What others are saying...
[A big takeaway from the class] is that I am not the only person who struggles with a reactive dog. And that reactive dogs aren't bad or broken dogs, they may just need more understanding and time to work through some issues.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why should I take an online dog training class?
Dogs (and humans!) tend to learn more effectively in distraction-free environments (a.k.a your own home). You can focus on learning concepts without having to manage your wiggly pup. Plus, it’s convenient. You can have the crockpot going while you train. Learn more about the benefits of online dog training.
What will my dog learn in this class?
In this class, we focus on a variety of basic commands, including loose leash walking, recall, leave-it, targeting, and more. Your dog will also learn how to learn, which will make teaching future behaviors much easier.
Do you use aversive tools in this class (such as e-collars, choke chains, etc)?
No. We do not use fear, pain, or intimidation—including the use of choke or prong collars or e-collars—in any of our training. Instead, we use positive-reinforcement based training. This training focuses on teaching your dog what to do, rather than what not to do. Studies have found that it’s the most effective style of training with the least potential for fall-out or negative side-effects.
What age does my dog need to be to take this class?
This class works for dogs of all ages and skill levels, including puppies and senior dogs. That said, it’s not specifically a puppy class and does not address common puppy concerns.
My dog barks and lunges at other dogs or people. Is this class a good fit for me?
No. This class is geared toward teaching basic manners. It’s not a rehabilitation class. If this describes your dog, I suggest taking our Reactive Rehabilitation online class.
Are there any prerequisites to this class?
Yes. You must first take our Basic Manners Online Class.
