PAVLOV - Private In Home Dog Training - Denver, CO
Welcome to Pavlov Dog Training! We train Denver’s most charming family dogs.
Select from two training formats: board and train, or private dog training. Are you looking to upgrade your dog’s manners or resolve a behavior issue? We can help!
Private dog training consists of weekly visits from a certified dog trainer. Your dog trainer will assess your dog’s specific learning style, and compose a training program based on your needs. At the end of each training session, you will receive clearly defined homework.
Board and train may be ideal if you prefer to contract out the lion’s share of work to a professional. Your dog will sleep in a comfortable space and train throughout the day.
PAVLOV’s Training Approach
Pavlov advocates for a healthy hybrid of traditional and contemporary dog 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.

Recommended Certifications for Dog Trainers
When choosing a dog trainer, professional certifications are a strong indicator of expertise, experience, and commitment to ethical, science-based methods. Widely recognized credentials include the CPDT-KA or CPDT-KSA from the Certification Council for Professional Dog Trainers, which demonstrate mastery of modern training techniques, canine behavior, and learning theory. The KPA-CTP (Karen Pryor Academy Certified Training Partner) highlights trainers skilled in positive reinforcement and clicker training, while the IAABC Certified Dog Trainer credential, recognized internationally, signals advanced knowledge in behavior modification and problem-solving. Membership or certification through the Association of Professional Dog Trainers (APDT) further reflects ongoing education and adherence to ethical standards. Many trainers also pursue specialty certifications in areas such as aggression management, behavior modification, or puppy development to address specific challenges.
