Our Instructors are experts in dog behavior and learning theory. They’re also passionate about what they do, and they’re committed to your success at every stage of training.
Developed by leading trainers and animal behaviorists, our techniques are proven to be effective.
Our training is fun and upbeat, creating a positive experience you and your pet can share.
Our Accredited Pet Training Instructors are able to help you understand why your pet behaves a certain way and how you can use that information to achieve consistent, healthy behaviors. Getting those results takes a combination of verbal cues, hand signals and positive reinforcement, but our Instructors also understand that it takes dedication and a lot of patience.
At PetSmart, we believe that rewarding your dog for wanted behaviors is the most effective – and fun – way to train him. By linking visual cues to motivating rewards, your dog learns that good things come to him when he responds to you.
Positive reinforcement is an effective, humane way to train your dog. Our methods get consistent results because they make your dog want to learn!
The PetSmart training environment is full of unique distractions. This helps dogs learn to repeat cues in public places like sidewalks and parks.
If you’re not 100% satisfied with your results, we’ll keep working with you until you are – even if it means retaking the class for free!
