Dog training for owners offers a range of services, including obedience, behavior shaping and modification, service and therapy training for dogs, as well as leadership, communication, and psychology skills for dog owners.

The company is also authorized to certify therapy dogs. They are well-versed in various training equipment and believe that the proper equipment must be selected based on the individual dog, the task at hand, and the owner's goals.

The company's philosophy on dog training can be found on their website at www.dogtrainingforowners.com.

They serve several locations including El Dorado Hills, Folsom, Granite Bay, Loomis, Shingle Springs, Rancho Cordova, Citrus Heights, Fair Oaks, Sacramento, Auburn, and other areas of El Dorado County, Placer County, and Sacramento County.

Dog Training for Owners is distinguished by its three decades of real-world experience, covering obedience, protection, and patrol dog training, as well as emotional support, service dog, and therapy dog training and certification.

They understand that each dog is unique and therefore emphasize the importance of tailoring training to the individual dog's needs and characteristics.

The company's approach not only involves training the dog but also focuses on teaching owners effective training techniques that enhance the bond and relationship with their canine companions.

They emphasize the significance of building a strong bond between dog and owner and believe that success in any training program begins with training the owner or handler of the dog.

By teaching owners how to enhance their bond with their dogs, they can motivate their pets to want to learn, creating a more effective training experience.

Their methods also aim to help owners earn their dog’s respect as a fair and just leader, and effectively communicate with their pets in a way that they can understand.

By doing so, not only does it pave the way for solid training, but it also strengthens the relationship between owner and pet.

The company believes that these skills, combined with becoming the dog’s best friend, form the foundation for successful training.

They emphasize that these principles set the stage for successful training, making it both rewarding and effective for both the owner and their dog.

Who are the dog trainers listed on this page?

We have created a directory of licensed dog trainers specializing in positive reinforcement methods. These trainers are not affiliated with Dogo, and all information is gathered from publicly available sources. Each profile provides a brief overview of the trainer's experience and expertise.

How can I select the right trainer for my dog?

Start by evaluating your dog's needs and identifying your training objectives. Each trainer's profile provides insights into their areas of expertise. Match these with your dog's character and your goals to find the ideal fit.

How do I ensure these trainers are competent?

All trainers listed here are certified professionals with extensive knowledge of positive reinforcement techniques.

Why is positive reinforcement emphasized, and what is it?

Positive reinforcement centers on rewarding preferred behaviors, ensuring a pleasant learning journey for your dog. This humane approach is scientifically proven to be the most effective long-term training method, strengthening the bond between you and your pet. By consistently rewarding good behavior, your dog learns to associate actions with positive outcomes, leading to lasting improvements and a happier companion.

Are these trainers equipped to address specific behavioral problems?

Simply click on the preferred trainer's profile to access their contact details. From there, you can get in touch to discuss your requirements and set up training appointments.

How do group sessions differ from private ones?

Group sessions offer a communal setting where your dog learns general obedience alongside other dogs. In contrast, private sessions grant focused attention, making them perfect for targeted behavior modifications or individualized training agendas.

Which training techniques do these trainers abstain from?

All our trainers are committed to positive reinforcement techniques and steer clear of any harsh or punitive methods. Their primary goal is to make training a joyous journey for you and your dog.

When can I expect to see results using positive reinforcement training?

Results depend on factors like your dog's nature, the specific behaviors in question, and your training consistency. While many clients observe improvements in just a few sessions, it's crucial to be patient and persistent.

Can I attend a training session to observe before committing?

Reach out to the trainer you're interested in to discuss possibly attending a session. It's a great way to get a feel for their approach and see if it aligns with your expectations.
