About the Trainer

PetSmart Dog Training offers accredited, positive reinforcement-based dog training classes for puppies, adult dogs, and rescue dogs. They provide both group and private training sessions, as well as virtual online training for convenience.

Group classes are small (4-10 dogs) to ensure personalized attention while allowing dogs to practice socialization around distractions. Training programs span multiple weeks to reinforce skills and build communication between dogs and owners.

Advanced options include special tricks and therapy dog training. PetSmart also offers related pet services including grooming, PetsHotel boarding, Doggie Day Camp, and veterinary care at many locations.

Their trainers are accredited and use positive reinforcement methods to build behavior through rewards, not punishment. Training is available at multiple PetSmart store locations in Knoxville, TN, and surrounding areas like Oak Ridge and Powell. Virtual training is an option for those preferring to train at home.

PetSmart provides package deals for multiple classes and flexible scheduling with extended hours, including evenings and weekends. They serve dog owners seeking structured, science-based training in a trusted retail environment with access to pet supplies and additional services.
