About GT Dog Training
Owner-coaching, in your home
GT Dog Training is led by Greg Twedell, who builds the program around teaching the owner: "We believe in teaching you how to train your dog." Most work happens in-home through 8-week packages (45-minute weekly sessions) for puppy pre-training, obedience, and socialization, with an emphasis on communication, leadership, and "positively correcting any bad habits."
Certifications and board-and-train
The site carries IACP and ABCDT certification badges, two recognized industry credentials that many small trainers don't display. A 2-week board-and-train option is available (dogs must be spayed/neutered and current on vaccinations), along with facility boarding and one-hour phone consultations, though consults aren't offered for aggressive dogs. The business appears to have operated since 2014, putting it past the 10-year mark. The combination of a positive, owner-focused method plus visible certifications makes this a solid pick for owners who want to stay actively involved in the training process.
Sit, stay, recall and reliable commands, from beginner to advanced.
Socialization
Structured socialization to build calm confidence in the world.

Had a great experience during one on one session with my 6 mo English Lab. I feel like I have the tools and knowledge to train him to obey commands and to properly discipline him for poor behavior. I am so glad this resource was so close to home so we could get started right away with proper training. He also gave great tips and advice on the breed. Thank you for being flexible when I miscommunicated our meeting time.

Greg’s an excellent trainer! We are extremely happy with the results we’ve had with our large hound mix. Greg was calm, knowledgeable, and friendly to us and our dog. He explained in-depth at our initial consultation the issues he could see our dog was experiencing. He went right to work, focusing on some issues with greeting guests, as well as some socialization concerns with other dogs. Greg has really helped us learn why these issues occur and then what we do to correct those behaviors. Our dog has done great and we can see a definite improvement. Greg came to our home to do the training and was always on time, confirming each session on the day of our appointments. We highly recommend him for all training needs.

We had an excellent experience with GT Dog Training! Their prices are very reasonable, making quality training accessible. The communication was top-notch—responsive and clear at every step. Most importantly, the training itself was effective and tailored to our dog's needs. We highly recommend GT Dog Training for anyone looking to enhance their dog's skills! We especially liked getting video and photo updates on our dog's progress.

Called GT Dog Training for help with my 3 dogs. The older two were exhibiting aggression towards each other. Greg spent a lot of time on the phone explaining their behaviors and things that we could do to get our dogs to listen again. We implemented his recommendations and followed up by phone weekly. Within a month, we saw dramatic improvements and our dogs learned how to behave like dogs again. Amazed what we were able to accomplish over the phone. Greg is knowledge and helpful. Called again recently due to some minor issues and he was helpful again. He really does care about his clients.

Greg is an amazing trainer is who dedicated to the dogs! When I picked my dog up, I was so impressed with what he was able to accomplish in 2 weeks. My dog is a super nervous girl, so I was worried to leave her. But the amount of love he has for each dog made all of my worries go away. I can’t thank him enough.
