The Dogology teaching method
At Dogology, the key to transformation lies in our transparency. We involve you in every step of your dog’s training, and provide regular video report cards on their progress.
We also offer free group classes after your initial training is completed, and ongoing support via our free Facebook group.
After you and your dog complete your schooling, you’ll have the tools to confidently handle any real-world situations that arise.
Meet With Your Guidance Counselor
After your initial phone consultation with us, we’ll schedule an evaluation where we get to know you and your dog. We’ll discuss your training goals, and create a custom training plan to help you reach your goals.
Get Your Dog Ready For School
You’ll drop your pup off with us on Monday morning, where we’ll review the training plan for that week with you. Your dog will then spend the week in climate-controlled comfort, with potty breaks, walks, playtime, and training sessions throughout the day.
Pick Your Pup Up
At the end of the week, you and your dog will get a private lesson with a dedicated Professor. During that lesson, we’ll review your pup’s progress, work with you, and teach you how to continue making forward progress with your dog over the weekend so they retain their new training and obedience lessons.
After Graduation
Learning doesn’t stop after you’ve completed the program. We offer free alumni group classes so that you can continue to work on what your dog has learned at Dogology University!
Why Train With Dogology?
We do not use shock collars to train your dog.
Furthermore, our unique approach to canine and human education, coupled with transparency, and ongoing support put us at the leading edge of dog trainers in the greater Michigan area.
Our professors here at Dogology University must complete 160 hours of structured lectures, 160 hours of supervised training sessions, and are required to pass an oral exam covering all training materials learned.
This is to ensure that your student gets the best education possible!

DaVinci’s Story
When DaVinci first came to us, he was extremely dog aggressive. In fact, he attacked a dog statue at the vet’s office! During his evaluation, Matt had him at one end of a football field, with another dog at the other end of the field, 300 yards away! Despite his small stature, DaVinci was letting the other dog know in no uncertain terms what he thought about them!
By the end of his 6-week stay with us, DaVinci was participating in our group class with zero issues, and even passed his Canine Good Citizen test! Part of the test is greeting another dog; his response was to look away. In canine parlance, looking away and avoiding eye contact is a signal that says “I’m not a threat.”
DaVinci’s owners put a lot of work in, and it shows! Great job!
Nova’s Story
When this pretty girl first came to us, she was herding her owner, jumping on him, scratching, and nipping at his pants to get him to go where she wanted him to. In fact, she bit Ash on the hand the first day she was here! To say that she was a firecracker was an understatement! She was also starting to become dog reactive due to the fact that she was overstimulated, and didn’t have an outlet for all of her puppy energy. She knew “sit” and “down,” but would bounce right out of the position.
Within her first two weeks here, she was crate trained, beginning to focus on us, and was starting to hold “sit” and “down” for longer and longer durations. Nova is now more well-adjusted, and her owner has all of the tools he needs to help her succeed in life.
