Welcome to Pavlov Dog Training! We train Portland’s most charming family dogs.

Are you looking to upgrade your dog’s manners or resolve a behavior issue?  We can help!  Pavlov offers a comprehensive model that includes board and train followed by private training.  Once your dog graduates a boarding program, doors will open.  For one, your dog will receive lifetime access to group classes and pack walks.  Secondly, your dog may qualify for boarding with benefits.  This way polite manners are maintained when you go on future vacations.

Board and train programs are two to three weeks and include three handover lessons.  Your dog will sleep in a cozy space and train throughout the day.

PAVLOV’s Training Approach

Pavlov advocates for a healthy hybrid of traditional and contemporary training.  Some call this balanced dog training.  Rude, naughty behavior is directly corrected.  Polite behavior is liberally rewarded. Your dog will learn that wise choices are advantageous.


How Are We Different?

  1. Socialization groups 3x daily
  2. Lodging in your trainer’s cozy home

  4. Lifetime support with pack walks + group classes
  5. Boarding options after training

"Help my dog co-exist with the family cat!" Maise had ZERO cat experience before her arrival. The Park-it command is super helpful when introducing dogs and cats, as it keeps the dog relaxed and allows for a smoother interaction. Consider enrollment at our Fort Collins branch if you want us to work on dog-cat skills.
