About Canine Scholars Dog Training

Not training your dog is like not educating your kid, all you end up with is a heedless and troublesome brat that no one can stand. The good news: dogs want to listen, you just need to learn to speak their language. And no, we’re not talking about that ridiculous dog whispering your grandmother swears by. These days, there are amazing new methods for raising dogs who behave like they went to Harvard. In psychology 101 terms its know as operant and classical conditioning, and in real life terms it’s known as “do something good and you’ll be rewarded.”

Just finished our 3rd board and train with Canine Scholars. We have been so impressed with the change we see in our dogs after just 2 weeks. Our newest dog is a 1 yr old husky/shepard rescue from the shelter. He had no manners and was very cautious of strangers. I was worried that sending him away for training so early would make him more afraid, but it did the opposite. He came back to us a confident dog! It is such a joy to take 3 well behaved dogs out on a walk together and we couldn't have done that without the great training by the Canine Scholars team! Thank you for taking such good care of Hatch, Willow and Hank!

I sent my dog Arlo to Chris at canine scholars. They did a fantastic job! When I got Arlo back I kept telling my girlfriend how it was a completely different dog. He’s much more obedient thanks to his new commands. I did the 2 week board and train. It’s night and day now, he is much more calm and way easier to handle. I highly recommend them.

Jason is amazing. We added a new 14 month old puppy to our family. Jason came over and in 1 session corrected most of the behavioral problems we were having. Excellent work and great to work with. Jason is a pro and would recommend him to anyone.

Canine Scholars is amazingly incredible! The two week board/training program was exactly what Finnley, my 3 year old male Golden Retriever and myself needed. Chris and Jason and the team are fantastic! I was frustrated walking Finnley and quite honestly not enjoying our time together. Finnley would pull and bark and freak out when he saw squirrels. Sometimes I could not control him on his leash and would have to let go or lose my arm which was unsafe for everyone. I felt like a bad dog mom. Now Finnley walks nicely, doesn’t bark at other dogs, and we walk past squirrels without being pulled to the ground. I can take him places and enjoy our walks . It’s so wonderful . Canine Scholars are professional, trustworthy and knowledgeable. I always loved my sweet Finnley but they gave us a new leash on life😊

Jason is amazing! His understanding of how dogs learn and his ability to explain the reasons behind the training is great. He takes a step-by-step approach that didn’t overwhelm us or the pup. When he’s with us it never feels like he’s “watching the clock” or rushing. He took all the time necessary for us und practice the lessons until we got it. Most importantly, the training is working. Highly recommended!
