DENVER SCHOOL FOR DOG TRAINERS
ARE YOU READY FOR A FULL-TIME CAREER TRAINING DOGS?
Are you thinking of pursuing a career in dog training? If yes, I’m here to help by serving as the first stepping stone, a trusted guide, a lifetime mentor, and a confident, knowledgeable facilitator of this journey. There are hundreds of options both online and in person these days when it comes to working with animals professionally, and there are several ways that The Loyal Hound School for Dog Trainers stands out that I’d love to share with you.
Through The Loyal Hound’s Apprenticeship, we offer hands-on experience, an opportunity to shadow and work alongside an experienced, professional trainer, help with business development and individualized consulting advice to help you design your career path in this industry. Within our comprehensive 30-hour program, we will develop a plan that includes clear, actionable steps that you can begin implementing immediately to get your career off the ground as a brand new dog trainer. Our programs are tailored to meet you exactly where you are on both your personal and professional journey! You will learn new protocols, methods, handling and engagement techniques, in addition to a review of the key, core foundational skills necessary for effective training of new behavior, communication with both the dogs and their people, in addition to the ins and outs of behavior modification. We will also help you find ways to build, grow, and improve a company that you already have, if you are further along in your journey.

Countless generous, talented colleagues have helped me over the years. The Loyal Hound has become a household name both in MA where it all started, and now in Colorado. Being able to act as a mentor 14 years into my career, and to now have the privilege of teaching others the Art of Entrepreneurship and Balanced Training, is a gift, and an honor.
Helping other trainers, sharing this knowledge, and watching them put what they learn during their program into application with their new companies, dogs, and their personal lives with monumental results is so rewarding for me as a trainer, a teacher, and an entrepreneur.
Please contact us at the bottom of the page to learn more about how choosing a career training dogs and teaching their humans gave me control over my time, the company I keep, and so much joy. There is a level of peace and satisfaction seeing both human and canines live in harmony, no matter their back stories. This work has given me a level of fulfillment that’s truly changed my life. I can’t wait to share my story with you, and to hear more about yours!
We believe that inclusion is the ultimate reward for both humans and most dogs! We look forward to seeing how far you can go with the two and four-legged lives that you’ll be able to change after completing our program.

CHECK OUT WHAT PAST STUDENTS ARE SAYING
"This apprenticeship program really confirmed my goal of being a professional dog trainer. I already had experience helping with basic clicker training obedience, but this program gave me so much more knowledge about the different tools available and how to safely and effectively use them. Seeing how the dogs were transformed in a matter of two weeks was so encouraging. In the first session Juliet took time to understand what my goals were for the program, then customized the work we did based on this. As an aspiring professional I used this program as a starting point from which I can build my knowledge and skills. I learned and practiced using many different tools such as the prong and e-collars. I was also able to see the daily routine of the board and train dogs. Juliet also shared many strategies and tips for opening and running your own business. After finishing the month I am much more confident in my ability to start my own business and have a successful career as a professional trainer. I would recommend this program to anyone that wants to learn more about dog training."
