Adventures in Dog Training is your trusted partner for balanced, personalized dog training. We take a tailored approach designed to fit both you and your dog’s unique needs and lifestyle. Our philosophy blends positive reinforcement with healthy structure and boundaries, using life rewards to build a relationship rooted in trust, love, and respect. Because no two dogs are alike, we keep our training flexible—finding the right combination of tools and techniques to help your pup thrive and bring harmony to your home.

 

We offer a range of training options to meet your goals:

• Private Sessions (1 hour): Hands-on, in-person training in your neighborhood or at local parks, designed to give you practical skills and confidence.

• Zoom Sessions: Virtual consultations where we answer your questions, create a customized game plan, and guide you on tools and practices to use at home.

• Board & Train Program: A unique experience where your dog lives in a loving home environment with two professional dog trainers and two well-trained pups. Each day begins with a scenic hike in one of the many extraordinary parks Oakland or Berkeley has to offer, followed by structured training, play, and reinforcement of essential commands. Weekly video updates keep you involved in your dog’s progress.

 

At the end of the Board & Train program, we provide a thorough handover session to ensure a smooth transition back home. You’ll receive an in-depth review of everything your pup has learned, plus continued support with unlimited phone consultations and two complimentary Zoom sessions. For extra guidance, we also offer discounted follow-up private sessons at $100/hour.

At Adventures, our mission is simple: to nurture confidence in dogs and empower owners through balanced training, compassionate guidance, and lasting results.
