How Our Process Works

Group training begins with clear goals and structured sessions designed to help your dog stay focused even when other dogs are nearby. You'll work on leash manners, recall, and engagement in a controlled environment that mirrors the real-world challenges you face in Brighton, from crowded trailheads to neighborhood sidewalks lined with walkers and cyclists.

No 2 Alike Dog Training builds each lesson around repetition, positive reinforcement, and realistic scenarios, so your dog learns to respond reliably no matter what's happening around them. Sessions support progress tracking and owner confidence building.

Progress carries into in-home training to ensure real-world application, giving you the chance to practice handling techniques in your own space and reinforcing what your dog learns during group time. Local neighborhoods with active dog populations benefit from accessible group formats that make training a regular, manageable part of your routine.

What's Included in This Service

Group training offers a blend of structure, socialization, and real-world practice that many dogs thrive in—especially when they need to build confidence around other animals. Here are answers to common questions about what group sessions look like and how they support lasting progress.

How many dogs are in each group?
Groups are kept small—typically four to six dogs—so every handler gets individual feedback and every dog receives attention without feeling overwhelmed.
Will my dog be safe around other dogs?
Yes. All dogs are evaluated before joining, and sessions are supervised closely using non-adverse techniques that prioritize safety and positive interaction throughout every lesson.
What if my dog struggles with leash reactivity?
Group settings can actually help with reactivity when managed correctly. You'll learn handling techniques that reduce tension and build calm focus, even when other dogs are present.
How long does each group session last?
Sessions typically run 60 minutes, giving you enough time to practice new skills, reinforce leash manners, and work on engagement without tiring your dog out.
Can I use group training as a supplement to private sessions?

Absolutely. Many Brighton owners combine group training with in-home training to reinforce skills in both social and solo settings, which often leads to faster, more consistent results.

Group training works best when it's consistent, supportive, and aligned with the real-world situations your dog will encounter on a daily basis. Join a group class to build consistency and social reliability, and give your dog the skills they need to succeed in every setting.
