About D.O.G.
At D.O.G., we believe dog training should be fun—for both you and your furry companion! Our training isn’t just about teaching skills; it’s about building a stronger bond between you and your dog using positive reinforcement techniques. Because, let’s face it, a dog that’s excited to learn is way more fun to train!
What sets us apart? Certified trainers and a commitment to positive reinforcement training! Our team is made up of trainers who are certified by nationally recognized organizations, or they’re in the process of earning their credentials. And we don’t stop there. We’re constantly improving our skills to make sure we’re using the latest and greatest in training techniques and problem-solving strategies. We take pride in providing you with the very best tools to help your dog succeed.
A Little History:
Back in 1992, Jane and Al Boeck founded D.O.G. to create a welcoming space where dogs and their owners could learn and grow together. Fast forward to today, and Chris White, who took the reins in 2014, continues that legacy, ensuring every training experience is positive, effective, and fun!
Why Choose D.O.G.?
We get it—no two dogs (or people!) are the same. That’s why our training programs are completely customizable to fit your dog’s unique personality and needs. Whether you’ve got a new puppy with endless energy or an older dog who could use some manners, we’ve got you covered. Plus, we’re a family-friendly environment. We encourage everyone in the household to get involved, because when the whole family participates, training results stick!
What is Reward-Based Training?
It’s simple: reward the behavior you want to see! Whether it’s with a treat, a favorite toy, or enthusiastic praise, we use positive reinforcement to teach dogs how to succeed. This method builds confidence, creates a happy learner, and makes your dog more likely to repeat good behavior. As your dog masters the cues, we gradually phase out treats, replacing them with praise and affection—because let’s be real, dogs love knowing they’ve made you proud!
At D.O.G., we’re passionate about making training fun, effective, and personalized. So, if you’re ready to laugh, learn, and bond with your dog in a whole new way, come train with us. We can’t wait to meet you and your best friend!
