Our School for Dog Trainers may be just what you're looking for. We offer a flexible schedule, competitive pricing, hands-on training, and lessons are given by a certified and experienced trainer.
These courses are ideal for dog trainers, vet-techs, groomers, boarders, and others who have an interest in beginning or furthering their knowledge of canine behavior and training methods. There are courses designed for those interested in Search and Rescue, Detection dog trainer/handler, police K9 handlers/trainers. Whether you are currently in the canine behavior/training field or just beginning, these courses have something to offer. Semesters begin in January, April, July and October.
The Dog Trainer Courses are intensive, covering a broad and thorough spectrum in their respective subjects. We strive to keep class sizes small in order to give the student individualized attention. There will be both classroom and hands-on lessons. Students will get the opportunity to train dogs we have available. Students may bring up to two dogs of their own during the course. Students are NOT required to clean kennels etc. The student is studying to be a dog trainer, not a pooper scooper. Less scooping time = more training time. Those who pass the course and final exam will receive certification in their respective fields of study.
Unless otherwise stated, the dog training academy is conducted at our facility near Spencer, IN.
