ABOUT THE ACADEMY

Academy Dog Training by Haywood has had its roots here in the DC area for over 40 years! The Academy has sought to transform people's understanding that even a simple walk is a potential adventure for their pup and them. We seek to teach, both canine and human how to better communicate and learn using our 3 step balanced approach to training.

​

Academy Dog Training by Haywood has stood by its mission to maximize the quality of life for all dogs and their families through education. To date, the Academy has brought over 3000 dogs and their families closer together through education and physical fitness keys to an extraordinary relationship! If that relationship is not healthy then another dog is sent to a shelter or worse. We are here to make sure that doesn’t happen.
