Dog Connection is a Miami, Florida-based dog training center founded by certified dog trainers Paulina and Ludovic Teurbane, who bring 38 years of combined experience. They offer private sessions, group classes, intensive board-and-train programs, and doggie group camp training. Their approach emphasizes building a strong dog-owner bond through holistic, customized training that uses positive reinforcement techniques including clicker training, shaping, target training, desensitization, and counterconditioning. They train dogs in obedience, behavior modification, puppy skills, agility, schutzhund, and working K-9 tasks. They also provide boarding, pickup and drop-off services, and field trips as part of their intensive camp program to expose dogs to real-world environments. Their philosophy centers on understanding the dog’s perspective and creating harmony between dog and owner.

They serve clients in Coconut Grove, Coral Gables, Miami Beach, Brickell, and surrounding areas. Their training programs are tailored to individual needs, whether addressing aggression, separation anxiety, potty training, or preparing for competition. They also offer day care and enrichment activities as part of their camp programs.

The trainers are bilingual (English and Spanish) and focus on a balanced, individualized approach rather than rigid methods, ensuring each dog and owner pair receives a program suited to their unique dynamics.
