Virtual Training

Virtual dog training (also known as remote or online training) involves connecting with a certified professional dog trainer via video conferencing platforms (like Zoom or Google Meet). Instead of meeting in person, the trainer guides you, the owner, on how to train your dog in your own home or environment.


This method is highly focused on owner education, empowering you to become your dog's primary trainer.

  • Format: Live, one-on-one sessions where the trainer observes your dog's behavior in its natural setting and provides immediate, real-time coaching, demonstrations, and feedback on your technique.
  • Ideal For: Basic obedience, puppy training, addressing common household behaviors (e.g., jumping, barking, counter-surfing), and working with anxious or reactive dogs who may be stressed in a traditional training facility.
  • Key Advantage: Your dog learns skills and behaviors in the exact environment where they need to be successful (e.g., not barking when the mailman comes to your specific door).


Virtual dog training is often significantly more cost-effective than comparable in-person or private, in-home training sessions.

Frequently Asked Questions

Please reach us at 1smartdogct@gmail.com if you cannot find an answer to your question.

Virtual Dog Training conveniently allows you to train in the comfort of your own home or anywhere there’s an internet connection. It’s also a great option for shy or reactive dogs who would not do well in a group class setting.


Sessions are 30 min in duration.


You can schedule your first session when you book online, and then work with your Trainer to schedule future sessions on different days and at different times if you like.


We use Google Meet.


You can use any device that has internet service, a camera & microphone and can access Google Meet. We recommend using a larger device like a tablet or computer rather than a mobile phone. We also suggest using wireless headphones.


Each time a session is scheduled, you will receive a meeting invite with a link to join your upcoming session. 


To make the most of our time, please prepare by ensuring your dog is secured with a properly fitted collar or harness and a reliable leash. Gather a selection of bite-sized treats (the tastier, the better!) and a few cherished toys. For convenience, we highly recommend a treat pouch to keep rewards accessible, and having your dog's bed or mat nearby provides them with a known, comfortable spot for needed relaxation.
