Dogs and their humans, training together.
Providing modern, behavioral science-backed training methods since 2011
Dog Training Based on the Science of Learning
The only things we are strict about at Dog Adventures Northwest are safety and science. We use rewards to increase desirable behavior and management to decrease undesirable behavior. We don’t use fear or force with the dogs in our care. Using rewards-based dog training allows us to achieve long-lasting results we can all feel good about.
Fun and Fine-Tuned Learning
Private training allows us to target the behaviors you care about most. Good manners are always helpful, but we can also help you level-up on agility, nose work, and trick training, as well as problem behaviors. Working one-on-one with a trainer will give you the relationship you truly want with your dog.
“Good Dog” Training Isn’t Just for Dogs
We don’t “fix” dogs, because dogs aren’t broken. Instead, we help humans and their dogs communicate and modify behavior so that everyone can be successful. Dogs, welcome to People-Town. People, welcome to Dog-Town. (You are going to learn just as much as your dog!)

"I am so grateful to Dog Adventures Northwest. I went from wondering how I would survive my boy’s puppyhood to a thriving relationship centered around joy."
Anita and Jonsey
Get the relationship you always wanted… instead of just coping with what you have.
Your dog hasn’t let you down. The training method has. It was either too much or too little or too… SOMETHING. At Dog Adventures Northwest, we fine-tune training for you and your dog… so it's not “too” anything.

"When I first got my puppy, we tried 3 different trainers at different companies, other classes, etc. They just didn't compare. The quality of the trainers is just exceptional. It's well worth it, and your dog will be a happier/better dog for it. Big thanks to DANW."
