Welcome to Pavlov Dog Training! We train Portland’s most charming family dogs.
Select from two training formats: board and train, or private dog training. Are you looking to upgrade your dog’s manners or resolve a behavior issue? We can help!
Private dog training consists of weekly visits from a certified dog trainer. Your dog trainer will assess your dog’s specific learning style, and compose a training program based on your needs. At the end of each training session, you will receive clearly defined homework.
Board and train may be ideal if you prefer to contract out the lion’s share of work to a professional. Your dog will sleep in the cozy home of a Pavlov dog trainer and train throughout the day.

Pavlov Training and Meredith has saved my relationship with my dog (Knowles). I was struggling with Knowles and his reactivity and hyper focus on other dogs that we would pass on our walks or bicyclists that would pass us where Knowles would lunge. On walks, I would muscle my arm tight to hold his leash and keep him close. Two weeks with Meredith, and Knowles is a completely different dog. He has learned how to better temper his emotions and remain calm in situations where I was struggling. He remains on my heel while walking and rarely pulls. My confidence in Knowles and my love for Knowles has grown significantly since he returned from training with Meredith. He absolutely loves her and I would recommend Pavlov to any dog owner who needs help channeling their dogs energy and being the leader for their dog. Thank you Meredith and Pavlov!

My pup and I worked with trainer, Meredith, in Portland and have nothing but gratitude for her and the company. She was professional, comforting, and attentive throughout the whole experience. Her training with my dog was a success and most importantly the training I received from her has made me so much more comfortable handling and controlling my dog. She listens to me now- praise be!!
A huge thank you to Meredith and the Pavlov team 🫶

We can't say enough wonderful things about Meredith and her training style at Pavlov. Our boy was extremely reactive and now we have a way to actually help him and correct the behavior. He's still a work in progress but Meredith has been right there every step of the way even after his time at training was over. We love the environment our guy got to train in and looked forward to getting the updates (which were always timely and so much fun to watch!).
Thank you Meredith and the Pavlov team!

Meredith helped our lab come away from training with a new skill set and excellent behavior. It’s clear she has a passion for working with the dogs and a great positive energy.
Meredith also made it easy to communicate and align busy schedules. She earned a lot of trust with me, my girlfriend and our dog of course! Thank you Meredith!
