4worldlovers: If you aren’t convinced in the first 20 minutes, you don’t pay a dime!

I have lived in the San Francisco Bay Area and have been involved with dogs my entire life. I have grown up with them, I have studied them and I have trained them. The biggest breakthrough in my career as a Bay Area Dog Trainer was changing my way of thinking when I started studying canine behavior in depth and it all became abundantly clear that dogs are more intelligent than we give them credit for. Just like people, every dog is unique and how your dog thinks delegates what motivates them to respond. There is more than one way to train a dog. They are similar to children that long for leadership and guidance. Any problems that we typically have with dogs occur because we don’t understand how they think or how to be a proper leader in their eyes…

4worldlovers: Our skilled instructors teach people and their pets, from beginners to experts. Train for a lifetime of happiness with your pet.

From basic manners for a range of canine ages to specialty classes like Puppy Socials and Canine Good Citizen Class, we have a variety of fun and engaging group training classes that will take your bond with your dog to the next level. Remember, a well-trained dog is a happy dog!

Before your first class (or even before signing up), please view our training policies. These policies are design not only for your and your pet’s safety, but to ensure classes run smoothly and effectively. Remember, both for shelter animals and public classes, all of ARF’s dog training is done via positive reinforcement methods.

This class is for dogs that need to build confidence. We’ll work on building trust between new people and your dog as well as teaching you how to support your dog in new situations to help them feel more comfortable!

Have a great time bonding with your pup while challenging your skills as a team! This class includes five weeks of preparation, culminating in an official Canine Good Citizen test in the final session.

This class is for people who are hypervigilant of their surroundings during walks with their dogs because they dread the barking and lunging that happens when their dog sees other dogs or people.

The first months of your puppy’s life are crucial for their development. Puppy socials help put your pup on the path towards becoming a happy, confident, well-adjusted adult dog.

Are you ready to fine-tune your dog’s skills? This class will dive into how to train your furry friend to be more responsive to commands, calmer in the house, and an overall more well-behaved dog.
