About Beckman's Dog Training

After training killer whales, dogs are a breeze… Joel and Liz Beckman developed their unique training system and style from years of training killer whales, dolphins and other exotic animals. Joel and Liz Beckman left the marine mammal-training world because they were passionate about bringing their unique talents to the dog training community. Their unique background has shaped their dog training philosophy, system and approach. Beckman's Dog Training has grown to be a team of expert level trainers who are committed to providing you with both effective and humane help.

Questions & answers

From Google

What people have asked about this business.

Our 11 mo. Schnauzer reacts towards males, when we are on walks and he sees one approaching alone, he will bark and pull. But If the person is with a pet, he does not care. Do you have any videos or advise on how to handle this situation? Thank you!

You’d deal with it the same as any leash reactivity. I’ve got lots of videos on that on my YouTube

Beckman's Dog Training went above and beyond with my stubborn frenchie—between the level of care, communication, and attention to detail, it was clear he was in incredibly capable hands. I’ve never felt so confident leaving him with someone else, which says everything. They truly treat each dog like their own, and that kind of trust is priceless. I’m so grateful for the experience and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for exceptional training and care.

Did a two week board and train with our recent rescue pup to work on leash manners and basic obedience and it was the best investment we could have made. Everyone was kind and we got updates from them while we gone.

This guy is not a trainer. He’s all about marketing and click bait. Only thing his methods teach are reactivity and learned helplessness. Please find someone that actually shows themselves training. Beckman is only here for the money. He is the modern day equivalent to Cesar

Joel is awesome. To start he was super easy to work with to set up an appointment and is genuinely a cool guy. I did an in person training session with him and my basset hound and it was incredible. He was able to get some results within that one session and give me a clear road map to how to continue to improve my dog’s behaviors. He made it super clear and easy to understand. I’ll be returning for another session and would recommend him to anyone. Definitely worth the money.
