About Listen to the Dogs Canine Training

What they offer

Listen to the Dogs offers positive, reward-based training for families across the Monterey Peninsula, led by a Certified Dog Behavior Consultant. The goal is a dog who feels safe, confident and at ease in its world.

Adult Dog Manners, for dogs 9 months and older, helps the dog who pulls, jumps or forgets to listen. Support with difficult pet decisions is also listed.
