What to Expect

Internships

We offer a 3-month unpaid internship, excellent for individuals interested in getting into the field of dog training. Each month, interns focus on a specific type of training — starting with puppy training, then advancing into adult dog training, including more advanced off-leash obedience. In the final month, interns shadow our therapy and service dog program. Schedules can vary, but the program typically runs 6 days per week, 8-9 hour days.

Shadow Program

This is a paid program designed for dog trainers looking to improve their dog training skills, client training skills, or business management skills. There are opportunities to shadow dog training, client lessons, graduate services, and team meetings, plus ample time with our Owner/CEO to discuss the business side of dog training — program development, leadership/management, marketing, sales, customer service, and staff development.

This program is great for professional trainers who want to start or grow their own business. It typically runs Monday-Friday for 4 weeks, with flexible scheduling since many students continue working while enrolled.

Cost: $5,000
