About The Persuaded Pooch

What they do

The Persuaded Pooch publishes a class and private-training menu on its own site: puppy socialization for 8 to 12 week olds, a teen puppy class for 13 to 20 weeks, complete puppy packages, basic obedience for dogs of five months and older, topic classes, and a Canine Good Citizen group class. Private training is split into two shapes the site names itself – a coaching option and a train-for-you option – with a guide to choosing between them.

Who they work with

The headline claim on their own home page is results for reactive and shy dogs in St. Louis, and the site describes certified trainers specializing in behavioral modification, aggression, shy dogs and puppy socialization.

Credentials

Two trainers are named on the site with the Karen Pryor Academy Certified Training Partner credential, Sarah Hoth, who is also listed as owner and trainer, and Nicole Berthold. The site describes its methods as science-based and names Karen Pryor Academy and Fear Free.
