Initial Training

Our training and certification program (CDBA) is second to none. Get up and running in just a few weeks, even with no prior dog training experience. Training includes an extensive in-person curriculum, online testing, and hands-on dog training under the guidance of a certified master trainer.

After Training

Franchisees return home with a comprehensive operations manual, a set of 58-page client workbooks, and a competitive edge. Thanks to our online marketing program, most have clients scheduled within their first week of graduation.

Ongoing Training & Support

Receive continuous support via phone, email, webinars, on-site visits, training updates, and an annual conference with renowned guest speakers.

During Your Initial training

Learn more than dog training; this is a complete business system. Training includes professional sales training by Sandler Training, known for its success with top Fortune 500 companies.

Humane, Natural Training Methods

No clickers, no choke collars, no shock collars.

Professionally Designed Website

Client workbooks, marketing materials, operations manuals, vehicle wraps (optional), and company uniforms convey professionalism that competitors can’t match.

Ongoing SEO/SEM Program

Gain high online visibility with over 19,000 followers on our Facebook page and Page 1 visibility on Google.

No Group Classes

Our proprietary training system completes training in just three visits to the client’s home, eliminating the need for weeks of group classes.

This is an Owner-Operator Model

No rent, payroll, or worker’s compensation insurance expenses.

Puppy GoodStart®

Our copyrighted and trademark-protected puppy training program uses the puppy’s natural development stages and complies with AVSAB standards.

Canine Dimensions

The first and only dog training franchise approved by the Association of Veterinary State Boards for continuing education training in dog behavior for veterinarians and veterinary technicians.

Validation & Due Diligence Process

Take your time and do your homework. We provide qualified candidates with a list of current franchisees and help set up one-on-one appointments virtually or by phone.

Who is the Dog/s Best Friend? 

Dog training is people training. Highly motivated self-starters with coaching, teaching, or training experience fit well in this business. Our franchisees, including recent retirees, seek a break from the 9 to 5. Our model offers flexible hours, time off when desired, and the freedom to be your own boss while earning a good living. Our franchisees love their work every day.

Working From Home 

Unlike other franchises with high startup costs, a Canine Dimensions business can be started and run from the comfort of home with no need to lease commercial space, and no need for expensive equipment or special vehicles.

How Much Does it Cost to Get Started? 

Initial Franchise Fees: $47,500
Royalty Percentage: 9%

Marketing

“We Handle The Details So You Can Focus On Local Marketing.”

Our marketing approach is multi-faceted. Basically, the franchisor handles everything Internet related, which helps you get up and running fast. We do all of the web development, handle SEO and SEM, get you listed on Google and other search engines, and we handle all of the advertising on Facebook, Instagram, Youtube and other platforms across the world wide web.

That frees our franchisees up to focus on local marketing (which involves NO cold-calling). With over 20 years in the dog training business, we’ve learned what works and what doesn’t in terms of local marketing. For example, there are little or no expenses related to “old school” marketing like yellow pages, direct-mail, print or electronic media. Our system helps you get noticed locally very quickly and at very low cost. This is a low-expense, high profit business model.

You don’t need to reinvent the wheel, just follow our step-by-step system and you’ll ramp up your sales very quickly. Our FDD includes a detailed sales history.
