  • Did you know that training dogs requires no license or permit of any kind??? We think this is nuts, and that is why every trainer at Amanda Gagnon Dog Training is required to maintain professional certification through the most restrictive independent certifying organizations in the field (CCPDT or IAABC). All of our trainers are experienced, vetted, professional, personable, and passionate about you and your dog. In addition, we work as a team. When you book with any one of our trainers, you receive the benefit of all our minds. We compare notes, discuss training plans, and research the latest techniques as a group, so that you know you are always getting the best possible training available.

    Get to know each of our trainers by checking out our Meet The Team page.

  • Private Training is done in your home, on your block, or wherever the behaviors in question occur. We do not do in-person private training outside of Manhattan, but we are happy to help you virtually instead if you live elsewhere.

    Or…if the timing is right, we might have an apprentice available. Apprentice Training Packages are available at a deeply discounted rates. Apprentices who are taking sessions are fully versed in training methodology, but still building their experience in the field. They only work with new puppy and basic manners cases; anything else should be booked with a certified trainer. Inquire by email or phone, if you are interested in booking time with an apprentice trainer. ***No Apprentice Trainers Currently Available
