Adolescent & Adult Dog Training
Develop lifelong training and problem solving skills that you can apply wherever you go.
At Happy Dog Institute, we want you to feel successfusupported. We want you to have a problem solving "toolbox" for a whole host of behaviors and issues you encounter, both now and in the future. We want you to be able to take these skills home with you, and be able to use them over and over againon the road, on vacation, and wherever life with your dog takes you.
To support this mission, we have developed a whole host of classes and services, including the group classes below. Our team is here to help, and our goal is to give you real-life solutions and practical, common-sense tools. We look forward to working with you!
If you have a dog over 24 weeks old, read on. If your dog might not be a good fit for a group class, because they bark a lot at other dogs or are fearful, check out our Private Training page.

Foundation Skills for Adults Class
This is the first class we developed and taught when Heather & Emma founded the company in 2009. We've updated and modified it many times, but the core goal remains the same: to help folks learn how to build better behaviors and how to solve problems as they arise.
Zesty Teens Class
Did you miss out on early socializing? Maybe your calm and manageable puppy is quickly turning into an rambunctious teen? This six week class will help you understand important developmental milestones and breed specific tendencies that might be making your teen more challenging to work with.
