At Phoenix Valley Dog Training it is our mission to effectively train all of
our dogs using humane, dog-friendly techniques to help develop a dog
that can be a quality, lifelong companion to their owner and can have a
relationship with their owner based on mutual trust and respect, not fear
of pain or physical punishment.

Phoenix Valley Dog Training promotes caring relationships
between dogs and their owners by educating the owner in canine
behavior and emphasizing reward and praise-based, positive
reinforcement training. We will never use pain, physical
punishment, shock stimulus, gimmicks or devices to accomplish
our, and our clients', training goals and objectives.

At Phoenix Valley Dog Training our goal is to help our clients achieve all of their dog
training objectives, and we don't stop until we meet that goal. Whether the problem is dog
obedience or dog behavior, we work with our clients and their dogs until we resolve every
dog training issue that they are experiencing.

Steve Wood is the full-time, lead dog trainer for Phoenix Valley Dog Training. He has been training
dogs in the Phoenix valley for many years and is also the owner of the Phoenix franchise of the
Canine Dimensions Home Dog Training Company, a national company specializing in humane,
dog-friendly training methods.

Steve and his bulldog, Tigger, live in Peoria, Arizona and service the entire Phoenix Valley. He has
successfully trained hundreds of dogs over the years and is recognized for his abilities by The
International Association of Canine Professionals and The Association of Pet Dog Trainers.

Steve is also a certified evaluator for the American Kennel Club's Canine Good Citizen program
and he is Red Cross certified in Canine CPR and First Aid.

Always having a love for dogs, Steve began training them at an early age. Working with
dogs that belonged to family members and friends, he soon realized that he had a gift
for communicating with the animals, as well as, for his ability to communicate with and
teach the owners how to help their dogs respond to them consistently.

He quickly turned this hobby into a profession, becoming a nationally recognized
Certified Dog Behavior Advisor and traveling the entire state of Arizona to help people
resolve the problems that they are facing with their furry friends.

We've received incredible feedback about Steve and intend to continue our relationship
with him as long as he is training dogs. The most common things that we hear about
Steve are that his sense of humor makes the sessions very fun and enjoyable and that
his abilities to counsel and teach people are second only to his abilities with the
animals themselves.

"I know it's been a long and
tiresome road, but I wanted
to let you know that the
efforts are definitely
paying off. I can't thank
you enough for the help
you've given me with
Wrigley.
I was walking him today
and we were joined about
halfway through by Julie
and her dog. Wrigley never
even flinched. I was so
proud of him. I came home
right after and felt like I
needed to let you know.
The change I've seen in
him over the past few
months has been nothing
short of miraculous.
I know there's a lot of work
still ahead of us, but I want
to thank you for never
giving up, for always
giving encouragement and
for always being there,
even when my questions
were small ones. Thank
you so much for your
teachings and your
support. Your program is
awesome!"
