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.

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). This is especially true for reactive dogs who may struggle during in-person classes. Plus, it’s convenient. You don't need to drag your kids along to a training center or even change out of your sweats. Learn more about the benefits of online dog training.

    What will my dog learn in this class?

    In this class, we focus on teaching management techniques to prevent the rehearsal of reactivity, calming exercises to help dogs learn to control their own arousal levels, and ways to change behavior by meeting a dog's basic needs. In Level Two, we delve into behavior modification techniques to help change your dog's emotions toward their triggers.

    My dog loves other dogs, but still barks and lunges at them. Is this class a good fit for me?

    Yes. Many reactive dogs love their triggers. Their reactions are born out of their desire to play with that trigger and the frustration that they may be unable to. This is called frustration-based reactivity. This class addresses both frustration and anxiety based reactivity.

    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 focus on changing a dog’s underlying emotions (why they are reactive). Change the emotion, change the behavior.
