Voting Home / Ahimsa Dog Training of Seattle
Nominated for: BEST Training
Grisha Stewart created Ahimsa Dog Training in 2003 with one goal: help Seattle's dogs and their humans create a better relationship through dog-friendly training. (2010 BOWW winner!)
We started with just one trainer and have grown to a 5-trainer business with a dozen puppy classes a week, growly dog and manners classes, private lessons, play times, two training rooms and a training gear store. We've grown, but we've never lost our love of dogs and their people.
One feature of most of our classes is that they are ongoing. You can even change your session reservations to fit your busy life, or come to extra sessions for free.
We strongly believe that knowledge is power. The Ahimsa website (DoggieZen.com) has loads of free tips for dog lovers in their blog. You can learn how to teach your dog to fetch, walk well on leash, or come when called with info from the website.
Free, easy parking and a free weekly intro to training class. Make a note to check us out!
We also offer advanced seminars for other dog trainers.

Ahimsa has been instrumental in helping us learn how to train our puppy, Miss Pixel. Puppy and teen play has helped her go from being a fearful, cranky puppy around other dogs to a well-adjusted almost-adult in the space of a few months. It was a lot of work, but they helped us understand what was going on the whole way. Their positive training methods are the only way to go, for human and pooch. Puppy Jr. High was a great benefit as well. Carly, Wynona and Rachael (and Ali, who trained us before we found Ahimsa): You rock, and we're very grateful.

We are first time puppy owners and AHIMSA training really helped us get started on the right foot (er, paw). We loved the puppy classes and the trainers really gave personal attention to our questions and new pet owner needs.

I have taken two of my dogs through classes at Ahimsa, from Puppy Kindergarten to Advanced Manners. The trainers are great teachers to both the dogs and their owners. I would and have recommended them to friends without hesitation.

This is a creme de la creme training center that I highly recommend! If dogs could talk they would say "take me to Ahimsa Dog Training, bow wow!
