At PetSmart, our Accredited Pet Trainers believe that positive reinforcement builds positive behavior for both pets and people.
With dog training classes designed for puppies and adult dogs, we can help you and your pet set boundaries and communicate in ways you both understand. We offer three levels of dog training courses and experienced pet parents, and graduates can also learn more advanced skills, like special tricks and therapy dog training.
We also offer private classes for dogs and pet parents. However, if socializing is important to you and your pup, our group classes are the perfect fit. They're small enough (4-10 dogs) so you'll get the attention you need, but they also offer ample time for your dog to learn how to be around other pets or distractions and still listen to you.
All our dog training courses are held over the course of several weeks. This way, you can practice your skills, then refine your communication and gain new skills the next week. Check out our convenient virtual dog training options if you prefer to train your pup in the comfort of your home. For those who'd like to go beyond one training class, we offer special savings packages that allow you to combine two or more dog training classes. For details on the training options available, find the PetSmart store nearest you.
