Zoom Room Dog Training #9

At the Zoom Room, they train people to train their dogs using positive reinforcement methods. Classes are designed to build confidence and success through a simple, step-by-step process, ensuring behaviors transition to home life.

They offer small group classes and private, one-on-one training at their indoor dog training gym. Training begins with either a free 30-minute Orientation (without dog, for puppies and Obedience 1) or a $39, 30-minute Evaluation (with dog, for reactivity concerns, advanced placement, or training plan help).

Group classes feature small sizes for personalized attention, flexible schedules with class packs usable for any class/time, and a levels-based system allowing dogs to advance at their own pace.

Remote training via live video chat is also available for various at-home needs.

Puppy training includes Puppy Preschool (2-4 mo.) focusing on socialization and basic challenges, and Puppy Training+ (4-8 mo.) covering manners, agility, tricks, and Pup-lates®. Obedience training starts with basic manners (Obedience 1), progresses to focus with distractions (Obedience 2), and advanced control (Obedience 3), including preparation for the Canine Good Citizen test. Rally Obedience is also offered.

Agility training is available for all dogs, emphasizing teamwork, obstacle management, control, and fluidity across four levels (Agility 1-4), with an Agility League for competition. Enrichment classes and workshops cover specific subjects like ‘Calm Down!’ (self-control), ‘Practical Canine Care’ (grooming comfort), ‘Therapy Dog Training’, ‘Shy Dog’ (fear/anxiety), ‘Come When Called’ (recall), ‘Loose Leash Walking’, ‘Scent Workshop’, ‘Advanced Scent Workshop’, ‘Tricks 1 & 2’, ‘Urban Herding’, and ‘Pup-lates®’ (core control, balance).

How to Get Started!

Dog training begins with either a free 30-minute Orientation or a $39, 30-minute Evaluation. The Orientation is for puppies and those starting Obedience 1, attended without the dog, and covers their methods and clicker loading. The Evaluation is for dogs potentially reactive for group classes, those seeking advanced placement, or needing a training plan, and is attended with the dog. Vaccination records are required for both.
