Welcome
Dive into hands-on training without ever leaving your couch. Our LIVE program runs entirely on Discord, so you can log in from your phone or computer and take part in weekly real-time calls, personalized coaching sessions with MaligatorMom and Dave Kroyer, candid Q&As, and guest-speaker talks that pull back the curtain on advanced training concepts. Optional challenges and homework deepen your grasp of K9 learning theory, while an active community lets you trade stories, wins, and tips with fellow dog enthusiasts. Choose the participation level that fits your lifestyle, engage as much or as little as you like, and watch both your skills and your bond with your dog grow week after week. Ready to get started? Every session counts!
