Professional Dog Training in Sherman Oaks, Los Angeles
Bringing home a new puppy is always exciting. They are playful, loving, full of energy, and quickly become a true part of the family. But along with all the joy often come challenges that many dog owners know very well.
Late-night barking, chewed shoes or furniture, accidents around the house, constant leash pulling during walks, jumping on guests, biting during play, or ignoring commands — these are all very common behaviors, especially in young dogs.
Without the right guidance, consistency, and structure, even small behavioral issues can quickly turn into long-term habits that create stress for both the owner and the pet.
Professional dog training helps your dog develop good habits, confidence, and proper manners from the very beginning. It also strengthens trust, improves communication, and builds a strong bond between you and your dog for years to come.
At Animal Clinic International, we offer professional dog training programs in Sherman Oaks, Los Angeles, fully integrated with our daycare and boarding services. While you focus on your daily routine, your dog receives structured training, physical activity, mental stimulation, socialization, and attentive care in a safe, calm, and supervised environment.
Our programs are designed not only to improve obedience, but also to help dogs become balanced, confident, and happy companions.
Dog Training Programs
Boarding Training Program
Our Board and Train program is ideal for dogs who need full daily structure and consistent reinforcement.
Your dog stays with us for the selected training period and follows a carefully designed daily routine focused on obedience, behavioral correction, confidence-building, and healthy socialization.
This program is especially effective for leash pulling, excessive barking, poor recall, jumping on people, anxiety, and other common behavioral challenges.
Daycare Training Program
Our Daycare Training program is perfect for owners who prefer their dog to return home every evening.
During the day, your dog participates in training sessions, structured play, supervised socialization, and enrichment activities, then returns home after completing the daily program.
This option combines the benefits of daycare with professional obedience training and behavioral improvement.
Both programs are personalized based on your dog’s age, temperament, behavior, and your specific training goals.
Training focuses on:
- Obedience and basic commands
- Proper leash manners
- Loose leash walking
- Recall (“Come”) and focus
- Socialization with people and other dogs
- Correction of jumping, barking, and unwanted behaviors
- Anxiety reduction and confidence building
- Healthy daily routines and structure
Boarding Training Program
Our Board and Train program is the perfect solution for busy dog owners who don’t have the time to bring their dog to and from daily training sessions.
While you focus on your daily responsibilities, your dog stays with us in a safe and structured environment where our professional trainers provide both training and loving care throughout the day.
Your dog follows a carefully designed daily routine focused on obedience, behavioral correction, confidence-building, and healthy socialization.
This program is especially effective for leash pulling, excessive barking, poor recall, jumping on people, anxiety, and other common behavioral challenges.
Another important benefit of this program is helping dogs become comfortable staying away from their owners. This can make future boarding, travel, vacations, or schedule changes much less stressful for your dog and helps reduce the risk of developing separation anxiety. It teaches your dog confidence, adaptability, and comfort in new environments — which is extremely valuable for families with busy lifestyles.
Daily Training Routine
A consistent daily schedule helps dogs feel calmer, reduces anxiety, and significantly improves training results.
Our daily routine includes:
- Morning walk and potty break
- Breakfast
- Morning obedience training session
- Rest and recovery time
- Socialization and supervised play
- Command reinforcement and leash work
- Enrichment activities and agility exercises
- Midday quiet rest period
- Afternoon training session
- Dinner integrated with training exercises
- Evening walk and potty break
- Calm transition into nighttime rest
Every dog receives individual attention and a training plan adapted to their personal needs and progress.
If your dog is already an adult and you notice excessive barking, strong leash pulling, jumping on people, aggression toward other dogs, anxiety, or other behavioral challenges, professional training can help correct these habits. We also work with adult dogs adopted from shelters and rescue organizations who need help with adjustment, trust-building, and learning good manners.
For these cases, we offer personalized 10-day, 15-day, and 25-day training programs based on your dog’s needs and your goals.
