University Canine Learning Academy

As part of the Seattle dog training community we strive to offer unique and pleasant classes that take you from house training and basic obedience to fun and challenging subjects like Rally-O and Tricks. Beginning this summer we will train for Fly-ball! Our methods are humane and effective and our professional, certified trainers are friendly, knowledgeable and versatile. We use only safe, sound, science-backed training techniques to help you achieve a healthy, happy, well-behaved canine citizen.
In Puppy Preschool our trainers work with you to install the ABCs of puppy socialization and basic obedience behaviors. From puppy biting to leash manners, our people work to give you the skills you need to communicate clearly and reliably with your puppy what is acceptable and what is not. These lessons are continued in Puppy Kindergarten, or if your adult dog needs a little help with basic obedience skills, check out Primary School.
This summer we will start a class that focuses specifically on Dog Park Manners. As the title suggests, we will address all aspects of training your dog to co-exist amicably and confidently with his fellows in park society while you relax and enjoy all the advantages of safely walking in Puget Sound's various and wonderful off-leash areas such as those found in Magnuson Park and Marymoor Park. If you are having problems with lunging, barking, jumping or aggression, we also offer classes that deal with these specific behavioral problems. Our studio is clean, airy, and well-lighted in its easy-to-reach, easy-to-park location behind University Village. If you come from South Seattle, Seattle downtown, Queen Anne, Magnolia, West Seattle, North City, Lynnwood, Bothell, Kirkland, Jaunita, Bellevue and the eastside, or other areas of the Puget Sound complex, reaching us from the major arterials and freeways is as easy as reaching the University of Washington or University Village.
