Community answer · Go Anywhere Dog - Puppy Training School · 2026-02-21
❓ Will I feel behind if I join later or work with different trainers?
No. Our program is designed as a cohesive curriculum taught consistently by our entire team. Many experienced dog owners tell us this continuity is what makes our classes feel supportive instead of frustrating, even as puppies move through different levels.
Community answer · Go Anywhere Dog - Puppy Training School · 2026-02-21
Our off-leash training approach helps puppies learn real-world focus, confidence, and emotional regulation. Because our curriculum is consistent across all trainers and classes, puppies receive clear, predictable guidance — which allows off-leash work to be both safe and effective.

❓ Do you offer puppy training in Uptown, Nokomis, Longfellow, and Powderhorn?

Do you use positive reinforcement training methods?
Absolutely! Our training is all about encouragement, praise, and treats – making learning enjoyable for both dogs and their humans. Every pup deserves a happy learning experience! We teach you about the developmental stages your puppy is in and what is appropriate for your puppy at that stage. When your puppy is ready, we'll add consequences for non-compliance. Those consequences are much like consequences we use with children today. Never ever anything scary, painful or intimidating. We'll never set you up to break trust and crush deepening the bond between you and puppy.

You can sign up for an individual 5-week class for $185, but we recommend checking out our full class packages. By committing to our entire program, you get lots of extra perks including but not limited to:
One-on-one private Zoom consultations with your Dog Life Coach.
One free make-up class per level
Access to the class times that work best for you with VIP registration
Access to our Puppy Nanny, who will pick up your pup and take him to class for you. (Additional cost applies.)
Community answer · Go Anywhere Dog - Puppy Training School · 2026-01-21
Each class is 45 minutes long. Over the years, we’ve found that 45 minutes is the sweet spot for class length. Your puppy is guaranteed to go home tired, but he won’t be overworked. We’re working around your pup’s developing attention span, and ensuring that he enjoys his time in class.
Community answer · Go Anywhere Dog - Puppy Training School · 2023-09-21
Life happens! Clients who have purchased any of our class packages are eligible for one free make up session per level. They can also call on one of our puppy nannies for an additional fee. We will pick up your puppy and take him to class, where an experienced trainer will bang out reps and give him lots of lovin’. If you have registered for a single class only, we offer make-up sessions when available for an additional $25. If all else fails, you’ll still be able to complete the work at home thanks to our weekly homework and class recap emails.
Community answer · Go Anywhere Dog - Puppy Training School · 2023-09-21

I am signed up for a class to start Oct 31 but have not received any communication on what to bring to the first class or a welcome letter anything?
Hello Nettie! You should have received confirmation for your class registration. Class instructions are sent out a week prior to your class start date. Looking forward to meeting you and your pup in class.

Go Anywhere Dog was an invaluable experience for me and my pup, Coco. Coco is an incredibly social dog, and the intro classes taught her how to play better with other dogs her age. They also taught *me* when to step in and when not to be such a helicopter mom. Learning commands in a group environment was also helpful because Coco doesn’t have many distractions at home, and having to sit/stay/etc. while other people and dogs were around taught her to really focus on me.

Love the two fold training. In person with the dogs and the videos for at home. The trainers are amazing, very patient especially with my over excited 6 month old puppy! I have learned so much about training Maggie and Maggie has learned so much being there. Highly recommend if you are looking for a multifaceted learning experience.

We rescued our dog, Pippa, right around Thanksgiving. It had been a long time since we had a young dog, and she was (and is!) full of seemingly endless energy.
Our experience in the 101 course was amazing; we learned so many valuable things, always felt supported, and received assistance when needed.
We've also done a few private lessons, and I hope to enroll in the next level as soon as I can balance out my schedule.
Thank you, Go Anywhere Dog, for amazing Dog Life Coaches, your compassion, and your love for dogs.

The puppy 101 course I enrolled in has been INCREDIBLE - as a first time dog owner, I had no idea what I was doing. Being able to bring my little keeshond to a space where he can learn and play, as well as have access to online e-course for at home learning has proven a rapid progression in his training process. I was bummed that most of classes we couldn't get to in person, but even then keeping up with the weekly assignments and practicing extensively at home, he is doing so well! They break everything down for you that you need to know in easy attainable steps and explain the "why" behind it. Not only does the training quality deserve enormous praise, but the price too - I was gratefully surprised for how affordable group classes are!
I am really grateful to have found this place. Excited to take every single course and have a go anywhere dog as this baby grows up! :D
