We help families just like yours all the time. We can help make your dog a fun family companion again, even if they're a nightmare right now.
Right now it might seem impossible to take your dog anywhere outside of your house because you know they'd be crazy - jumping all over everyone, forgetting every command you've ever taught them, and running off at the first opportunity. And the guilt that you feel leaving him at home is even worse!
Then again, simple walks around the neighborhood are just as bad, between his barking and pulling on the leash until your arm is numb.
Imagine if you could actually trust your dog to come when you call them and stay nearby while your family plays in the yard. You'd never have to arrange a pet sitter or shorten your weekend trip to make sure the dog is taken care of - because they'll be with you!
Even days at home can be so relaxing when you have a peaceful walk and then know your dog will settle with you on the couch to relax instead of destroying your stuff.
What if your dog could join you on all of life's adventures? What if you could enjoy your dog as part of the family instead of wondering what you were thinking even getting a dog?
Manners at Home
No more yelling "stop!"
Jumping on people, barking at innocent neighbors, stealing food... we'll help you make sure your dog listens around the house!
Truly Enjoy Your Dog
Have fun as a family.
Whether it's grilling out in the backyard or a weekend trip to the lake, having a well-mannered dog around makes everyone smile. Knowing your dog will listen even with distractions means you have one less thing to stress over!
Be Proud
No more embarrassment!
Many families tell us they avoid going for walks (because their dog practically pulls them off their feet!) or avoid having company because their dog is embarrassing. Now instead you'll get compliments on how great your dog is!
Experience Trust
Off leash freedom
Have confidence that your dog will listen no matter where you go so you can trust them to be off leash without worrying about them chasing after a rabbit or running up to people walking by.
About Your Trainers!
Tandem Dog Training was founded in 2016 by Nicole Weatherby, who wanted to share her knowledge with the Minot community and help as many dog owners as possible. Dog owners who were dealing with out-of-control dogs just like yours. Over the several years, Tandem Dog Training grew into one of Minot's most popular sources for dog training, even winning community awards, appearing on local television, and bringing the first Bat Dogs to the Minot Hot Tots baseball team! Our team grew to include three more amazing trainers who have helped hundreds of families turn unruly dogs into lovable, well-mannered, and even
dream dogs.
We know how frustrating it can be to have a dog who doesn’t listen, who chews up everything in sight, and drags you down the street – not to mention embarrassing! So many dogs are rehomed due to these very issues every day, which is why we’ve dedicated years to learning the most efficient and effective ways to stop nuisance behaviors and teach dogs how they should behave.
