Frequently Asked Questions

How should I decide what training program is right for me and my dog?
The training program you choose should depend on your training goals, your budget, and the time you have to invest in training your dog. There are three different options for training your dog: classes, private lessons, and bootcamp. If you are unsure about which program is right for you, we suggest you meet with one of our dog trainers or behaviorists.
How do I book training services
Please reach out directly to your club of choice to schedule training. A team member will help you customize a program that works best for both you and your pup.
When do you hold classes?
Please visit our training page to see the date, time, and location of the class you are interested in attending.
Do classes have an age requirement?
The only age requirement for any class is the puppy classes. Dogs that participate in any of the puppy classes must be 12 months or less.
How can I figure out what class my dog should take?
Your dog’s class level depends on their experience and proficiency. Just because you and your dog have attended classes at another training center, does not mean they would be qualified to be in intermediate or advanced classes at PUPS.

Ryan Topf, CBCC-KA

Director of Dog Training & Expert Dog Trainer

I have been working exclusively with dogs since 2013. I’ve safely logged thousands of hours socializing and training dogs of all breeds.

I have used my experience and my education (B.A. in Philosophy) to successfully train and rehabilitate dogs. I believe that every interaction with a dog is an opportunity to train them. In a society that tends to treat dogs like humans more than ever before, I believe it’s incredibly important to educate pet parents on dog psychology and communication so that both canines and humans feel as if their relationship is fulfilling. I have three dogs: Moo who is a Rat Terrier mix, Annie who is a Dachshund mix, and Tom Cruise, a Labrador Retriever.

Maya Caroll

Experienced Dog Trainer

Being able to help people create and strengthen the bond with their dogs is what makes training such a joy for me! My love for working with dogs started with my experience adopting, fostering, and working with rescue Shiba Inu’s.

Rescue dogs come with many unique challenges, often dealing with anxiety, trauma, and sometimes physical disabilities. The care and understanding they require can be overwhelming at times, but helping a dog feel safe and happy is incredibly rewarding. Being able to apply that same special care to every dog I train and work with, no matter their background, is such a privilege and a joy.
