Zen Dog Training

We had the absolute best experience with our 4-month-old rescue puppy, Tayto, at Zen Dog Training. My 10-year-old son came to each class as well. The 6-week Puppy Class was the high point of our week. We learned SO MUCH from Gordon, who is a dog guru/genius. It has made us happier and better at taking care of Tayto, and it makes Tayto much happier to have consistent, kind training. One of the best parts of this class -- and it's unusual -- is that there is supervised puppy playtime in each class, where the puppies can play off leash in a safe space. It was super helpful to us to see what is normal puppy play, and to have expert Gordon there to intervene when the puppies got too rough, and show us tips and tricks to make our dogs good citizens when they're playing with other dogs. Zen Dog Training is fantastic, and I highly highly recommend it. I wish we could go every week forever!

Neil completely transformed my experience with my dog Enzo. The progress has been incredible. Going from really struggling on walks to runs and public events together is something I couldn’t have imagined before. On top of that, he worked around my schedule, came to my house, and was always available when I had questions. He genuinely went above and beyond to make sessions work. I can’t recommend him enough.

My sweet but spicy puppy Lulu and I began training with ZDT in April 2026 when she was about 12 weeks old. I have participated in both in-home and class training. Having Gordon work with Lulu at home has been one of the most important parts of my Puppy Journey. These experiences have helped me become more calm and confident while shaping a more positive environment for Lulu. The Ivy League Puppy classes with Dario have been so positive, structured and fun! I am amazed at the progress I’ve seen and the transformative experiences we continue to have. I cannot recommend ZDT highly enough—They are extremely professional and experienced with fantastic support and resources. Thank you so much Gordon and Dario!
