We are in search of another Dog Behaviorist to join our team!
 

We teach what we call "natural dog training". We teach our clients how to build a relationship of Trust and Respect with their dogs based on Leadership and Exercise. We don't load our clients down with a bunch of tools or carry treats around with us at all times. We teach our clients to better communicate with their dogs. We give our clients the knowledge and the confidence they need to work with their dog‘s nature, not against it. Essentially, we teach people how to ‘Speak Dog’.

 

Here's the official, stuffy version...Our mission at Good Dog Workshop is to make a positive difference in the lives of dogs and dog owners, primarily through in-home, one-on-one training sessions, and to educate the public and dog rescue organizations about responsible dog ownership and the natural approach to working with dogs.

 

Our interview process is different. Don't worry so much about your resume or experience…Speaking and Demonstrating is what we do so we focus heavily on the phone interview and in-person interview which, of course, includes dogs. Show us you know how to read dogs and that dogs respond to you. Show us you can teach people how to get the best from their dogs by BEING the best for their dogs.
