Remember Chester, with his dog and people challenges? We’ve continued working with him since we took your class, and we are so pleased! Thank you so much for everything.

The Dream
We all dream of owning a dog so well mannered we can take it everywhere. A sociable dog that is calm enough to not call attention to its self. A dog so behaviorally invisible it is a welcome visitor and pleasurable at the beach, a cafe, the park or an outdoor market.
The Embarrassment
Instead we end up embarrassed because the dog
- pulls on leash, does not come or follow commands consistently
- jumps on people or bites them playfully
- is not calm enough to be enjoyable
- destroys things, barks or has accidents
- is fearful or aggressive
The Solution
You don't have to live your life with a dog that is an embarrassment, frustration or worry. You can have a dog who functions as a part of your family and wonderful companion where ever you go. The experts at The Well-Mannered Dog have 24 years of experience coaching owners how to train their dog through group or private classes and over 37 years training dogs. We can even train your dog for you. It does not matter if you have a young pup, an out of control teenaged dog or a mature adult dog.
How do you know which class you should take?
At the Well-Mannered Dog, all of our classes focus on how to apply the training to your daily life. We offer group classes, private classes, in-home visits and a program where I train your dog for you. We also have advanced training that addresses more difficult distractions, and off leash control through agility. Some group classes also help owners socialize their dog or puppy. I you are not sure what class to enroll in, give us a call at 541-937-4391. We take pride in helping people get their dog into the correct class.
Picking a dog training professional
It is important that you select a trainer you get along with, one that treats dogs and people humanely, with respect and can meet your individual needs. At the Well-Mannered Dog LLC, all classes are taught by a Professional Certified Dog Trainer to ensure you receive competent, qualified instruction based on positive, humane techniques and the latest science based knowledge of how dogs and owners learn.
Our training building is located in Eugene Oregon but because many people throughout Lane County value our services, we have many clients who live east of Springfield Oregon, south of Cottage Grove, west of Veneta and North of Coberg.
