Thank You For Trusting Us for Your Dog Training Needs

A Complete Immersion Membership

With over 30+ Years of experience, Dog Works Training Company has developed a well-respected reputation for dog training in Alaska, the Pacific Northwest, and beyond. To date, we have trained over 1,200 dogs and are the trusted professionals for all your dog training needs.

Our Certified Dog Trainers specialize in Puppy Training, Obedience, Aggression, Anxiety, and Working Dogs.

Dog Works Training Company has spent years developing our programs.

Dog Works Training Company offers unique membership tiers fully customized to match each individual client and dog. We will discuss your individual needs further during your consultation to develop a training plan tailored to your needs and goals.

These memberships have been designed unlike any other. From the moment you enroll everything changes. We coach you to build a bond with your dog, which will last a lifetime, as well as start a new beginning of learning and understanding what will be expected of them from here forward. We begin by removing bad habits, building confidence, and educating the dog on what is expected of them. We hold the dogs accountable for their actions; this is the key to our success.

Note: Before we proceed, please check your email folders (including junk/spam/promotional) and confirm that you want to receive emails from us.

It’s Like Nothing You Have Ever Experienced Before 

Our Peak Performance Program is One-of-a-Kind

If you have a dog that is five months or older, you are in the right place.

It has been used by dog owners across Alaska and nationwide.

It has been successful with both big dogs and small dogs. It has worked for experienced dog owners and first-time pet parents alike.

Our Peak Performance Program has achieved MAJOR success in addressing a wide range of behavioral issues as well.

Problems like anxiety (whining, barking, pacing, separation), house training problems, destruction problems, jumping, not coming when called, leash pulling, and so much more.

This program has been effective for dogs ranging from five months old to twelve years old.

The reason why we have so much success is that it sets the proper foundation.

It helps your dog think right and teaches you how to understand your dog. 

Most dog training programs and dog trainers address the problem as it occurs. 

While this isn’t wrong, it ignores the root of the problem.

Our Peak Performance program solves the root cause.

It helps establish the right relationship with your dog, enables your dog to become a problem solver and make informed choices, and facilitates both you and your dog working together as a team.

🧨💥🚀 Reach Your Potential

Do you remember high school sports? Our own, Dr. Robert Forto played hockey and football – there was a LOT of training involved in both.

The great thing about organized sports is that you have a coach. You have teammates. And your coach and your teammates all not only hold you accountable but push you to go beyond your comfort zone and reach your potential.

Working alone, we often lack the discipline to push ourselves.

Whether you want to train your dog more frequently, improve the quality of your relationship with your K9 Buddy, or both, our membership programs provide the accountability and push you need to achieve your potential and leverage the best of your abilities.

The team at Alaska Dog Works Training is fantastic! Michele and Nicole have both been exceptional at training our dog and, importantly, helping us understand how to respond with the dog at home. Our dog, Jackie, is a very social malamute/husky mix. They are knowledgeable m, clearly love dogs, and techniques they’ve shown us work. We have also had great success boarding her with them. I highly recommend their services!.

🤜✨🤛 Lift each other up

 
 

I’m obsessed with peer groups of historical figures. Did you know that the founders of Apple, Google, and Oracle were all friends?

Even in our groups, dog owners have their own small groups of peers who all push one another.

Not only to achieve their best, but they even amplify the work of their friends!

Basically, dog owners without a community are playing on Hard mode.

This community works together to not only push each other to grow and improve, but we amplify each others work as well.

There’s also a mathematical advantage to working within a group. MrBeast explains it well

If you have made it this far...

But what if you don't have much time?

Every dog owner is busy. Every single one of us. 

Our membership is designed to create a routine, not a chore.

Of course, if you spend time leveraging the resources (Pack Sessions, Workshops, 1:1 Coaching, and Group Classes), you will get the most out of it. If you simply use the membership as a place to get inspiration, work through training roadblocks, or get feedback from other dog owners just like you, you’re going to get a lot out of it. 

Most members tell us within weeks of joining they have already seen measurable results with their dogs and are getting their money’s worth. 

You don’t have to dedicate hours per week to your dog’s training.

…but I bet you’ll choose to spend more time than you think. It is intoxicating to see your dog learn and grow. Plus it’s fun!
