Dog Training Methodology

Equipment:
- ✓ Clickers
- ✓ Food Rewards
- ✓ Harnesses
- ✓ Flat Collars
- ✓ Obstacle Courses
Zoom Room focuses on training dog owners using positive reinforcement methods, aiming to build confidence and communication between dogs and their families. Training journeys begin with either a free 30-minute Orientation (without the dog, for puppies and Obedience 1 readiness) or a $25, 30-minute Evaluation (with the dog, for reactivity concerns, advanced placement, or training plan development).
Group classes feature small sizes for personalized attention, flexible scheduling with class packs, and a levels-based system allowing dogs to advance at their own pace. Private one-on-one training and remote video sessions are available for individualized attention, scheduling flexibility, reactive dogs, specific behavior issues, or accelerated learning.
Puppy training includes Puppy Preschool (ages 2-4 months) focusing on socialization and basic obedience, and Puppy Training+ (ages 4-8 months) covering manners, attention, and introducing agility and tricks. Obedience training starts with basic manners and progresses to Advanced Obedience, incorporating distractions, off-leash work, and preparation for AKC Canine Good Citizen tests. Agility training is open to all dogs, emphasizing teamwork and obstacle navigation, with an Agility League for competitive fun.
Enrichment classes and workshops cover specialized topics such as “Calm Down!” for rambunctious dogs, “Practical Canine Care” for grooming comfort, “Therapy Dog Training,” “Shy Dog” for fearfulness, “Come When Called” for recall, “Loose Leash Walking,” “Scent Workshop,” “Tricks 1 & 2,” “Urban Herding,” and “Pup-lates®” for physical conditioning. They also offer AKC testing services including Trick Dog, Canine Good Citizen (CGC, Urban, Advanced), and Therapy Dog Practice Tests.

“It was a wonderful experience. My dog learned so much and most importantly, we learned how to handle her when she gets way too excited around other dogs by using commands & techniques. Sarah was extremely knowledgeable & taught us so much….”

“I have had the best experience with Zoom Room. This is my first dog since I was a child so training it properly was a big concern for me and this was the perfect place for just that. Chelsea was an amazing trainer, super friendly and just a really great and knowledgeable person. I am sure we’ll continue to take classes here for the next couple years. You guys are truly awesome at what you do! Thank you!…”

How to Get Started!
To begin dog training, clients must attend either a free 30-minute Orientation or a $25, 30-minute Evaluation. The Orientation is for puppies and dogs ready for Obedience 1, and attendees should bring vaccination records but not their dog. The Evaluation is for dogs that may be reactive, need advanced placement, or require a specific training plan, and attendees should bring their dog and vaccination records. Appointments for evaluations can be booked, and the business offers flexibility for those unable to attend scheduled orientations.
