SIRIUS Puppy & Dog training is the original puppy school! Over 40 years ago our founder, Dr. Ian Dunbar, created and taught the world's very first off-leash puppy class, right here in the San Francisco Bay Area. Since then, we've run thousands of classes and trained over 120,000 puppies! Along the way, we’ve worked constantly to update and refine our curriculum, to ensure that our classes are the best they can be. Our classes come with an unrivaled collection of on-demand training videos and other resources to support your training at home, providing you and your puppy or dog with the ultimate educational experience.

I enrolled my very small (4 lb) puppy in the Puppy 1 training class. I’d been through Sirius Puppy Training about 15 years ago and they were great. I was so happy to find their training is still top notch, positive reinforcement, and reward based. I was excited to continue my puppy training with their Puppy 2 Training class. Twice. But in all fairness, I wasn’t as invested in my training efforts outside of class so that’s why I needed to go through it again.
I was very excited to have Leanne Neufeld as my trainer throughout all classes. She must have eyes in the back of her head because she sees EVERYTHING going on and is quick to jump in and help with specific training that each puppy and guardian needed. She makes it look so easy, but she also makes sure you know how to do what she is demonstrating. The Top Dog Academy online videos are extremely helpful and they also do zoom training each week where you can ask questions. I highly recommend Sirius Training. You and your pup won’t be disappointed.
