HOW TO SPEAK DOG

How To Speak Dog teaches you how to effectively communicate with your dog and is the foundational course for Lisa’s program.

In week one of five, you will engage in a thorough introduction to dogs. We tackle vital topics such as bone development, growth patterns, body condition, nutrition, heart health, and both potty and crate training. Even seasoned dog owners gain fresh insights.

Dogs lack a spoken language, so we must find effective ways to talk to them. During weeks two through four, you will master the art of using marker words to tell your dogs precisely when they are succeeding or need another attempt. Marker words are meaningful sounds that let dogs know how they have done. They bring clarity and relief to a dog’s experience. These first four weeks focus entirely on your learning, free from your dog’s distractions.

In week five, you will introduce your dog to markers for the first time and demonstrate your readiness to navigate the excitement of a live dog in class.

This course is available even if your puppy hasn’t finished their vaccines, enabling you to practice communication techniques in a safe setting at home. The entire five-week program is available for $175 via Venmo or Zelle or $180 by credit card.

WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING ABOUT HOW TO SPEAK DOG

We highly recommend Lisa’s Nosy Puppers Dog Training marker class. Lisa takes the time to provide a strong foundation of markers (yes, no, good and more) that are essential for your dog’s ongoing training and obedience. The approach ensures that both you and your dog (but mostly you!) understand the markers that will make future training sessions more effective and enjoyable. Lisa’s expertise and dedication to laying these foundational markers set the stage for a well-behaved and well-trained dog.

I found the marker classes beyond helpful. Learning key words to use without [my dog] made me understand how much I was overwhelming her. I’ve been consistent with my marker words and [there is a] huge difference …[The] class provided Georgia and I a great foundation!

Lisa is a wealth of knowledge. She teaches us evidenced based approaches, including positive rewards based training, and shares some of the research. She effectively teaches everything we need to know so we can become confident dog parents and encourage our dog to exhibit good manners, safe behaviors, and critical thinking. Lisa has strategies to train dogs with a variety of personalities and needs.

I took my 2 year old Bernedoodle to Lisa at Nosy Puppers. We learned Marker Training. I especially liked the eye contact we acquired through the training. Lisa has vast knowledge about dog training. She is able to teach dogs at any level.

Lisa’s Nosy Puppers How to Speak Dog class is a great class that taught us the foundation of communicating to our pup in clear simple markers (words). This class is geared towards training the trainer(s) to build the foundation to future successful training to make our pup the best she can be. Thank you Lisa for teaching us how to understand and train our little rescue pup!

The new 4 week long Markers class being offered by Lisa’s Nosy Puppers Dog Training is an excellent way for dog owners to learn, not only what the markers are, but to also learn the appropriate timing for giving the markers and how all of this translates to your dogs understanding (since dogs don’t speak English!).

And the first 3 sessions are catered to the humans only, so you don’t have the added pressure of bringing your puppy or dog to their first training class, while trying to learn this foundational and critical information.

The sessions are set up with a mix of fun games and important instructional time, with the last session being when you get to bring your dog to class for the first time and practice what you’ve learned with Lisa directly.

Our 9-month old Bernedoodle puppy is in his 3rd class overall with Lisa, and we highly recommend her and this program for your dog training needs. It has been transformational so far for our family, and we are looking forward to new class offerings in the future!

— Julie and Glenn M.

Lisa’s marker class has been a game-changer for me and my dog! It offers a refreshing approach to training, and I’ve learned a lot. I truly believe that effective dog training also involves training the owners, and Lisa’s class provided me with useful tools and tips to enhance my training at home. It’s been exactly what I needed to pull everything together and improve my dog’s behavior. I feel more confident about my training skills and I’m so happy with the progress I’ve seen since taking the class!
