Reward-a-Dog - Certified Dog Trainer - Santa Clarita, CA
I'm Raam Brousard, the passionate owner of Reward-a-Dog, where I bring over two decades of expertise in dog training to creating harmonious relationships between dogs and their owners. My journey began with the Israeli army from 1998 to 2002, where I honed my skills working with military dogs. These experiences, combined with my ongoing studies, helped me develop a unique training philosophy centered around positive reinforcement and understanding each dog's unique personality. As an Animal Behavior College Certified Dog Trainer (ABCDT), I empower dogs to reach their full potential, ensuring they become happy and problem-free companions.
My services are tailored to meet the needs of both dogs and their owners. I specialize in detection dog training, dog agility training, obedience training, and pet behavior modification. Whether you're looking to improve your dog's leash manners or address specific behavioral challenges, I'm here to guide you every step of the way. I firmly believe that, just like humans, dogs strive to be the best they can be, and it's our responsibility to show them the path to excellence. By using tools such as front-clip harnesses, head collars, and slip leads, alongside praise, affection, and treats, I create a nurturing environment where dogs thrive.
If you're ready to transform your relationship with your pet and unlock their true potential, I'm here to help. With services that can be tailored to your needs and a deep commitment to compassionate, science-based training methods, I'm dedicated to guiding your furry friend toward a brighter future.

Raam was great with our dog Max! He was very attentive to our needs and was available between sessions to address any questions we had. The training experience was really great. Raam broke down the steps so the process was easy to understand and follow. We are so happy with the result! We now have better understanding of how to communicate with Max and it definitely shows. If you are looking for an excellent trainer who knows how to distribute his knowledge in an effective way for great results, Raam is your guy. Highly recommended!!
- Darlene ZThe difference in the relationship I have with my dog has vastly improved since Raam spent time with us observing Bagel and I! The corrections Raam taught us are simple to understand, very clear and my dog responds! Bagel has stopped pulling on the leash when walking, he has learned to come and sit very smartly, and he's getting better about not jumping up on people and things. He seems much happier and relaxed, thank you Raam!
- Patricia SWow! I’d say Raam is a great dog trainer but that wouldn’t be quite accurate...he’s a great people trainer! He showed me with positive reinforcement simple things that I wasn’t doing that if out in practice would make a world of difference, and it sure did! He was very patient, kept me focused and helped me to understand what my dog Juliet needed from me to feel safe. After just a couple sessions, the change was night and day. Thank you so much!
- Ariella DRaam is amazing. His demeanor toward the owner and my dog, FozzieBear, is fantastic. He is patient, knowledgeable and knows the inside of your dog's mind in a short period of time. Raam took my dog and trained him not to be aggressive or "go nuts" whenever he saw another dog. Going for walks was torture and scary for us never knowing what to expect. Not anymore! Raam trained Fozzie to ignore other dogs on walks and how to walk correctly along side me. No pulling, no rushing in front of me. My dog is now patient and knows when to sit and wait and when to walk. It is nothing short of a miracle!! Raam's family supported Fozzie with love and attention, making him feel comfortable in the living environment. Upon Fozzie's return, Raam gave us an entire indoctrination on handling my dog after his training. Additionally, Raam was available to answer any questions or concerns about continuing the training on our own. I am so filled with gratitude and relief!!!
- Raina RRaam is the best dog trainer I have ever worked with. He taught our family how to understand our shephard/lab puppy's behaviors and trained us to train her in a thoughtful way. We were overwhelmed with having a high energy, working-dog puppy and through Raam's sessions, we now have an amazing pup who will be an even better adult dog.
