Advanced dog obedience training in Minneapolis, Minnesota

TCOTC is a nonprofit organization committed to strengthening the relationship between you and your dog. We provide quality training in Minneapolis and the Twin Cities in basic obedience, agility, flyball, tracking and therapy dog work, using principles of positive reinforcement and operant conditioning. Positive reinforcement training uses praise and/or treats to reward your dog for doing something you want him/her to do. Because the reward makes your dog more likely to repeat the behavior, positive reinforcement is one of your most powerful tools for shaping or changing behavior. Additionally, this method can strengthen the bond between you and your dog.

Great things happen when we study dogs and teach ourselves. Our puppy classes teach dog owners to transform into dog parents. Learning how to responsively relate and communicate in a meaningful way with our puppies creates amazing outcomes. For those looking for puppy kindergarten, obedience or puppy socialization classes, you have come to the right place. :)

K9SF is now proudly part of the North Star Family K-9 family.
