Mission

Harmony Canine Training is a Portland, OR based dog training school dedicated to providing high-quality instruction for your families companion as well as your competitive partners using only the most current and progressive training methods.

Our extensive journey in dog sports have allowed us to form deep and gratifying relationships with our dogs. We have taken this learning experience and tailored it to our other passion - bettering and continuing the rich tradition of the family dog. We strive to help you develop the fair, simple, and supportive relationship with your dog that we know and love.

Goals

  • Fair Communication: Provide clear and simplified information that will help your whole family as well as your pups meet your goals.

  • Kindness: We are an all-inclusive program, capable of and dedicated to tailoring our training for as many handlers and dogs as we can.

  • Results:  We make a strong effort in our planning to present our programs as reasonably priced as possible while paying our trainers and support staff above living wages.
