Raise and Train your BEST dog

We all want a dog that is well-behaved so we can bring them places with us... But inconsistencies can get in the way of us making the progress we really want to. With this self-guided dog training course and community, we'll show you how to fit training into your everyday life, so that you're never too busy to train your dog.

"Welcome Home!"

What You'll Learn:

  • Planning & Set-up

    We guide you on how to make a plan that works for everyone; especially Your Dog. Then we show you how to set up your environment, schedule, and care team for success.

  • Socialization

    This critical stage of development (from ages 8-16 weeks of age) involves so much more than having them meet other people... & there's a right [and a wrong] way to do it.

  • Obedience & Manners

    Obedience Training is a part of having a well-behaved dog, but there is so much more... Jumping, Biting, and Stealing are all addressed here as well.

Video Testimonial

Gabe Cox & Rocky

"OnDog Training Academy and 'Welcome Home!' helped us create consistency with Rocky. He went from being afraid of his crate and breaking through two of them to now enjoying downtime in his crate, whether we tell him to go in there, or he finds his way there on his own. We can finally leave the house without worrying about him destroying anything he can chew. 

He also has learned to sit outside the kitchen unless we're bringing him outside the back door and is now calmer when it's not playtime. The best part is that the program didn't break the budget! We received the dog training support we needed for a great price! I'm so thankful for what Jake and Jenny have put together!"

I can't say enough great things about these trainings. They are very helpful and informative. You can use their suggestions on any dog no matter what breed or age they are. With the online trainings you are able to go back 12 mo to readdress the trainings to refresh yourself if you missed or forgot something, and if you need a little extra help you can always email them or use the course community to ask for help or suggestions.. **Remember to be proactive in your trainings so you don't have to be reactive AND Everyday there is an opportunity for training or what I call "manners" with your dog.

    FAQ's

    for "Welcome Home!"

    • How tech-savvy do I need to be?

      Not very! If you can use email, you should have no problem navigating our website and online courses. Being familiar with ZOOM will be necessary to participate in any of our additional online services such as Live Q&A Sessions, Webinars, and 1-1 Virtual Lessons.

    • What is your training style?

      Balanced. We use mostly Positive Reinforcement, but we don't limit ourselves... there are 4 quadrants in operant conditioning that each has their place in behavior modification.

    • When do I have access to the course materials?

      You will have unlimited 24/7 access to the course and its private community inside your dashboard immediately when you enroll.

    • What kind of time commitment should I plan for?

      You can go through the coursework at your own pace; on average, students complete it in around 5-6 months... but if you're getting your puppy next month and want to be Proactive, you should plan to spend about 15-20 minutes per day (or 1.5 hrs per week) on coursework.

    • How much time should I set aside for training?

      Our goal is to fit your dog's training into your everyday life... once you've learned the material, you may only need to schedule 15-20* minutes a day to actively work with your dog. *Because young puppies require considerably more time than an adult, this may vary - at least for a while.

    • Do you offer a guarantee?

      It would be unethical for us to offer a guarantee for dog training... instead, here is Our Return Policy: If you change your mind or don't feel that "Welcome Home!" is a good fit for you and your dog, please email us within 7 days of your purchase and we'll give you a full refund.
