Many Pet Issues are Preventable
Sometimes, pets test our patience. Not listening, tearing up your leather couch, and chewing your favorite shoes are some of the many frustrations faced as a dog owner. However, nearly all dog-related issues are preventable and can be treated. And guess what? There’s a way to do it that’s FUN for both you and your dog!
At Wag, we not only teach you how to manage common behavioral issues, but we help you develop a lifelong relationship of mutual understanding with your dog. Understanding the basics of dog training with the help of a dog training professional is the best way to increase the bond between you and your furry friend. We strive to help owners develop the skills necessary to teach their dogs how to live a better life, which will go a long way in helping them both thrive as they live by each other’s side!
Trust and Bonding Courses help families and their dogs enjoy each other to the fullest using caring, compassionate and common sense dog training.

Improvements will be seen when you take what you learn in the class and practice teaching the exercises in a variety of different environments away from the classroom. Dogs learn best about the world around them, in real life, not just at school!
