OUR APPROACH

At Houston DogWorks, we believe that every dog is an individual and there is no "one size fits all" to dog training. Our approach is simple. We don't make excuses. We don't teach you to just manage existing problems. We actually teach dogs what to do and, in the process, solve behavioral issues.

Our systematic, proven training progression is rooted in measurable standards of obedience and self control. Both you and your dog will build skills as we work to develop your dog into the trustworthy and reliable companion you've always wanted.

Our training is built on clarity of communication and accountability for both the dog and owner. We're focused on building solid, positive relationships and believe that through consistency, everyone can have a safe, dependable and fulfilled dog.

I highly recommend Houston Dogworks. My dog has "issues" and, despite my efforts, they were not getting any better. A couple of other dog trainers recommended Josh and touted him for his ability to deal with problems. I finally called Josh and am glad I did. My dog stayed at Houston Dogworks for board-and-train for a while and we are currently doing follow-up work with Josh. I know the journey is not over, but the difference so far is amazing.

I’ve seen Josh handle a myriad of breeds, and I liked what I saw. I don’t hesitate to send my dogs to him or recommend friends to send theirs.

Josh and his team are true professionals in every sense, dedicated not only to the physical care and comfort of dogs, but to their mental and emotional health as well. Josh is committed to continuing education in his field, and works tirelessly to keep abreast of latest developments in canine training, learning theory, and behavioral science. He finds and employs the most effective techniques and research to best help individual dogs and create personalized coaching for owners.
