Our highly skilled professional trainers are dedicated to helping you teach your dog better behaviors and habits. We are balanced trainers and advocate a scientifically based, dog-friendly approach that is effective for all dogs, regardless of breed, age, or prior training. Balanced training is based on the application of learning theory. It embraces praise and positive motivation to encourage successful and enjoyable training for both the dog and handler while also communicating to dogs when behaviors are inappropriate.
Please note that private trainings are currently available. Other classes and playgroups are currently on hold. We will update this page as they become available. If you have questions please contact training@longmonthumane.org.
