Question on Google
❓ Will I feel behind if I join later or work with different trainers?

No. Our program is designed as a cohesive curriculum taught consistently by our entire team. Many experienced dog owners tell us this continuity is what makes our classes feel supportive instead of frustrating, even as puppies move through different levels.

Question on Google
❓ Why do you train puppies off-leash in class?

Our off-leash training approach helps puppies learn real-world focus, confidence, and emotional regulation. Because our curriculum is consistent across all trainers and classes, puppies receive clear, predictable guidance — which allows off-leash work to be both safe and effective.

Question on Google
Do you use positive reinforcement training methods?

Absolutely! Our training is all about encouragement, praise, and treats – making learning enjoyable for both dogs and their humans. Every pup deserves a happy learning experience! We teach you about the developmental stages your puppy is in and what is appropriate for your puppy at that stage. When your puppy is ready, we'll add consequences for non-compliance. Those consequences are much like consequences we use with children today. Never ever anything scary, painful or intimidating. We'll never set you up to break trust and crush deepening the bond between you and puppy.

How long are classes?

Each class is 45 minutes long. Over the years, we’ve found that 45 minutes is the sweet spot for class length. Your puppy is guaranteed to go home tired, but he won’t be overworked. We’re working around your pup’s developing attention span, and ensuring that he enjoys his time in class.

Life happens! Clients who have purchased any of our class packages are eligible for one free make up session per level. They can also call on one of our puppy nannies for an additional fee.

If you have registered for a single class only, we offer make-up sessions when available for an additional $25. If all else fails, you’ll still be able to complete the work at home thanks to our weekly homework and class recap emails.

Our experience with Go Anywhere Dog completely changed our lives. Not only are the employees/trainers, facilities, and location top notch (we live in uptown and the drive to EP is so quick and easy) — but the RESULTS are borderline astonishing. We have an extremely small dog (a chihuahua puppy) and we are first time dog owners. With both those factors in mind, we were determined to get professional training so we didn’t end up with a yippy/nippy/scared little dog. We had no clue what to expect going into that first Puppy & Me class. Now having completed both that class, as well as the subsequent course Life Skills 101, we couldn’t possibly be happier with our experience here. We are already signed up for the next course, Life Skills 201, which starts in a few weeks. Every. Single. Thing. that they have taught us at Go Anywhere Dog has worked for our puppy. Every single method has worked. Our puppy hasn’t failed to learn even one of the many, many commands we have been taught so far in these first two classes. It’s really amazing stuff. We even finally cracked potty training after many, many failed attempts simply from watching one of the online videos included in the membership. This place is the real deal. To say we HIGHLY recommend it would be a massive understatement. Do yourself and your pup a favor and look no further than Go Anywhere Dog — you will not regret it!!

Go Anywhere Dog was an exceptional first class for my dog, Penny, and me. We were treated with such kindness, and the lessons were explained clearly and thoughtfully. I especially appreciated the structured homework and the individualized guidance during class. I learned so much and truly value the support and expertise of the team. I would highly recommend this course.

Go Anywhere Dog has been a life saver for me and my shy pup. Every single dog coach has been an absolute pleasure to work with, has provided an amazing service to my pup and I, and has been fully invested in our success,which is huge for me. I searched quite a few different puppy training courses and without a doubt the staff who work at GAD are educated in posative training styles and know their stuff. The off leash classes have been wonderful for my little guy and have given him the chance to learn to trust people, learn some confidence and have fun at the same time. The online e-courses are clear, step by step, and the best part is THEY WORK! Even while we work on some of his shy guy behaviors he has quickly picked up on all the commands and is retaining them (as long as I stay consistent). If you are looking for training with people who will truly care about your pups future and how they will relate to the worlds you bring them into, like breweries, stores, flights, and other peoples homes, this is place. I truly cannot say enough positive things or enough thank you’s to Jody and the entire staff at Go Anywhere Dog. Do yourself a favor and get the package, I promise you won’t regret it.

These classes were the best thing we ever did. Highlight of the week, hands on trainers, and real life practical training skills. Not only were the trainers on top of it, they were easy to talk to and ask any pup related questions. If you’re on the fence, I’d say it’s totally worth it. If you’re putting in the work outside of class that the trainers are putting in, you will not be disappointed! Will forever recommend this amazing business!
