Practical training. Clear communication. Real-world results.

At 96 Dogs, we believe good training starts with communication. Our programs are designed to help owners understand their dog, establish clear boundaries and build reliable behaviour that works not just during a training session, but in everyday life.

Our services

We offer a range of specialized services tailored to meet your individual needs. Our approach is focused on understanding and responding to what you require, providing effective and practical solutions.

The 96 Dogs Reset

Initial assessment

We look at your dog's current behavior, environment, routines, and training history. Together, we'll identify what your dog is doing, when and why the behavior is occurring, what may be reinforcing it, what needs to change, and what you can begin doing immediately. You'll receive a practical starting plan rather than a pile of complicated instructions.

Communication & control

We'll establish a clear system between you and your dog, including engagement, attention, commands, boundaries, recall, lead control, place, impulse control, and appropriate rewards and feedback. The goal isn't simply to make your dog perform commands; the goal is communication.

Real-world behavior

Owner training

A major part of the 96 Dogs Reset is teaching you how to recognize behavior, respond clearly, and continue the training after your sessions finish. Because the best long-term result isn't a dog that listens to a trainer, it's a dog that listens to its owner.

Your ongoing plan

At the end of the program, you'll have a practical maintenance plan so you know what to continue working on and how to keep progressing.
