Transforming dogs, and the lives they touch, across Seattle & South King County 🏔️
At Northwest Dog Trainers (NWDT), we do more than teach commands, we build trust, clear communication, and real-life results that stick. Every dog-and-owner relationship is different, so we create a plan that fits your goals and your dog’s needs.
We specialize in the tough stuff: reactive dog training, leash reactivity, fear/anxiety behaviors, aggression rehabilitation, and behavior modification. We also offer puppy training, obedience training, private sessions, group classes, Canine Good Citizen (CGC) training, service dog training, and board & train options.

We adopted a 2 year old greyhound, and we were trying to train her ourselves. After 6 months, we were ok on the basics (potty, not eating the cats or the furniture), but we had hit a wall with manners. Within the first hour, Marcus had taught her how to sit--it was like magic! Since then, over the last couple months working with Marcus and Jeramy, she has made huge progress: she can sit, lay down, stay, come, etc. It's fantastic, and they also make sure to ask us how things are going and understand our specific struggles and goals.
