Austin Dog Training Professionals

OUR DOG TRAINING SERVICES

If you’re someone with a busy schedule, training your dog will probably be low on your list of priorities. However, you cannot overlook the need for adequate training unless you want to deal with a slew of behavioral difficulties down the road. The good news is that our dog board and training program is available.

Think of dog board and training as boot camps for dogs. You’ll place your dog in our care for a couple of weeks, and by the end of the program, you’ll see a remarkable change in their behavior. Of course, we will keep you updated on their progress during their stay at our board and train facility in Austin.

Our lead trainer, Adrienne, earned her state-accredited certificate as a Canine Training and Behavior Specialist from Starmark Academy for Professional Dog Trainers, and her commitment to her craft has led her to earn her diplomas from the elite NePoPo Silver and Gold Schools.

Adrienne has continued to expand her knowledge and skills by attending workshops and the annual International Association of Canine Professionals (IACP) conference, so you can rest assured that you’re getting the best dog training in Austin, TX, whenever you choose Austin Dog Training Pros.

Service dogs are not like regular pets. They have been taught to do specific tasks for individuals with physical and mental disabilities, and they are permitted by federal law to accompany you everywhere you go. Now, you can either train a service dog yourself or seek the assistance of a professional trainer (that’s us!).

At Austin Dog Training Pros, our service dog training program in Austin is designed to train your dog to perform tasks that are tailored to the specific needs and disabilities of each individual. We will also train you to communicate and handle your service dog effectively.

Austin Dog Training

Puppy training is crucial if you want your little pup to develop the social skills and confidence necessary for them to grow into a happy, well-behaved adult dog. Puppy training not only teaches puppies basic commands and manners but also helps them form a close bond with their owners. 

Our puppy training program at Austin Dog Training Pros starts with socialization sessions, where puppies are exposed to various stimuli, other dogs, and different locations. Then we move on to basic obedience commands, leash training, and house training before we gradually introduce more advanced commands and activities to challenge and develop your puppy’s mind. 

If you’re looking for the best puppy potty trainer in Austin, you’ve come to the right place.

Our NePoPo approach distinguishes our dog training service from the competition. We feel that efficient dog training necessitates a well-balanced and comprehensive methodology, which is exactly what we give. Adrienne, our lead trainer, has vast expertise with this technique and has had tremendous success in transforming dogs into well-behaved companions. 

At Austin Dog Training Pros, we place a major emphasis on building a strong foundation of communication and trust between the dog and the trainer. We only employ negative reinforcement sparingly and only to refocus undesirable behaviors, so you can rest easy knowing that your dog is in good hands at our dog training service.

Find yourself losing your temper (and maybe your arm) because your dog won’t stop pulling on their leash? Did a peaceful stroll at the park become a battle of wills between you and your dog? Well, you’re not alone. In fact, leash pulling is a pretty common problem that pet owners have to deal with.

Training your dog to walk without pulling can be challenging, but we have a solution.

Our dog leash trainer at Austin Dog Training Pros understands the frustration you’re having. That’s why we will do our best to train your dog to walk on a loose leash. After our sessions, there should be no more tug-of-wars between you and your dog, no more sore arms, and yes, no more battles of wills during your walks.

Our dog leash trainer will help your dog overcome the pulling issues so you can enjoy peaceful walks together.

If your dog is having behavioral issues, our dog obedience training program in Austin may be the answer to your problems. Obedience training for dogs is a highly effective way to treat behavioral issues and create a deeper link between you and your dog. Our trainers will work directly with you to build a customized training plan, so you can both enjoy a better and more harmonious life together.

Our dog obedience training program in Austin is designed to cater to dogs of all temperaments. So whether it’s aggression, separation anxiety, excessive barking, or any other behavioral issue, obedience training for dogs should help you and your furry companion overcome these challenges.

Similar to humans, dogs can grow to become model citizens. At Austin Dog Training Pros, we will teach your dog the basics of being a good canine citizen and prepare them for the American Kennel Club’s (AKC) Canine Good Citizen (CGC) test. From structured socialization to basic obedience commands, we will help shape your dog into the perfect companion.

Aside from promoting good dog behavior, the CGC program was also designed to encourage responsible pet ownership. So, for your dog to become a well-adjusted member of society, you will have to play an active role in their training. With the right guidance, any dog can develop into a good canine citizen.

“Using a crate as a part of the training process? Wait, isn’t crate training cruel?”

Well, if you’re looking at it from a human perspective, it may seem that way. However, you have to understand that a dog doesn’t view a crate the same way that we do. You see, dogs have a “denning” instinct, where they seek shelter in small, enclosed spaces. Have you ever noticed that your dog loves to stay under your bed or table? The crate helps satisfy this instinct. This is why crate training is essential for your dog.

By training your dog to enjoy their crate, you can create a positive association with this space, making it a comforting spot for them to unwind.

SO GRAB YOUR LEASH, AND LET'S GO!
