Dog Training in Portland, Oregon | (503) 731-8774
In accordance with the state restrictions being lifted on 3/12, we will no longer be requiring masks as of that date. Clients and staff are welcome to wear masks if they choose.
We are now allowing 2 people per registration. For safety reasons, children under 18yrs must be accompanied by an adult, be able to pay attention, follow directions and remain seated (unless working with a dog). We may ask that the adult handle the leash.
Please contact us at 503-731-8774 with any questions.
We are taking a wait list for our Day Training school. When there is availability, we will contact you to schedule an intake interview. Day training is offered for our class alumni. If you are not a current Day Training client, DO NOT purchase a package.
Additionally, we have a Beginning Obedience Train at Home Package. This includes five videos, supporting handouts and two private 30 minute Zoom consults for $175. We are also offering individual Zoom consults as a separate service to help with training issues. Check out all of our virtual training options »
And, we are now able to offer in-person private lessons at our facility. We are not offering in-home lessons, however.
We look forward to helping you and your dog any way we can, and thank you for your patience and support!
Sure, we’re dog trainers, but more than that, we’re people trainers, showing you how to get the best out of your life with your dog. It’s dog training that’s beyond obedience. It’s about setting you and your dog up for success and helping you build a relationship with your dog. We call it, “Positive methods. Rewarding Results.” After all, having a dog is supposed to be fun!
Conveniently located just off NE Glisan on 28th Avenue, we offer classes ranging from Puppy and Beginning levels to intermediate choices like Action & Distraction, Games & Tricks and our seasonal Out-on-the-Town.

In our two training rooms, we currently host 5-7 dogs per class, so there’s lots of one-on-one attention. You’ll typically have an instructor and an assistant in your class.

Being a leader does not mean being rough or harsh with our dogs. We can get the message across […]
