Welcome! Since you’re here, you must be curious about your dogs and cats who sometimes behave like knuckleheads. We're also curious about your dogs and cats! We’ll start with a deep dive into your dog’s behavior and lifestyle before sharing solutions. Training time should be rewarding for both people and their pets. Our training approach is focused on creating a positive experience for both you and your dog or cat. We prioritize communication between both ends of the leash.

Together, we create a more perfect union between you and your adored dog or cat.

We offer a variety of in-person and on-demand group classes for puppies, adolescent, and adult dogs. Classes are held online and in-person at Your Dog’s Friend.
Our expert trainer is a click away! Live online training is great for immunocompromised folks, fearful, aggressive, or reactive dogs, plus dogs with separation anxiety. It’s also convenient for cats having litter box issues.
In addition to training dogs, we have experience working with cats! Has your cat stopped regularly using the litter box? We have a certificate for Feline Inappropriate Elimination.
Wish your dog could be socialized and trained while you work, vacation, or catch up on life? We train your dog and teach you how to maintain the skills and progress.
