The benefits of online training vs. in-person classes

The world is rapidly evolving, and so is the approach to dog training. After the pandemic, we saw many services shift to a digital model. Dog training is one of them, and dogs (and owners) worldwide couldn’t be happier.

Here’s a rundown of some major perks you’ll enjoy when opting for online puppy training:

Convenience

Imagine training your dog without leaving the comfort of your home, local park and regular walking route. That’s the convenience online training provides! You can set aside worries about commuting or navigating busy streets to attend physical classes. Instead, simply grab your favorite device and begin your session right in your living room. You can just focus on what truly matters. And that’s creating a strong connection through shared experiences.

Flexibility

Flexibility is key in fitting training into our dynamic lives. Online courses are perfect for accommodating busy schedules. They also allow participants to progress at their own pace, a luxury rarely available within structured group classes.

At OneMind Dogs, we offer flexible options tailored to your situation. You might be dealing with a hectic work schedule or juggling family commitments alongside your pet parenting duties. Either way, you can access training materials and sessions anytime without missing a beat.

When opting for online training, you also gain the freedom to learn at a pace that suits you and your dog. Our comprehensive video tutorials can be paused, replayed, or even slowed down. This system allows you to absorb new concepts and refine techniques before moving on to more advanced topics.

Cost-effectiveness

A significant concern for many dog owners is the cost associated with professional training. In-person classes can be quite expensive, and their rigid schedules may not always cater to your specific needs. High-quality online lessons offer a more affordable alternative while still providing top-quality education, with expert trainers.

With OneMind Dogs online platform, you can access various courses and materials catering to different budgets. We believe that professional training should remain accessible to as many people as possible, which is why we developed our Foundation for Agility program which you can use for only $10 USD per month. We understand that not everyone competes in dog shows, so we designed the Foundation level to focus on having an amazing time with your dogs while building basic skills together. 

Additionally, online training eliminates expenses associated with transportation and class fees. They allow you to invest those savings back into your best friend through toys, treats, or more learning resources.

Personalized training plans

Every dog is unique, meaning they all come with their distinct personalities, quirks, and challenges. We celebrate these differences by allowing personalized paths for each dog based on its needs. Since you can move at your own pace and choose your curriculum, you’re the boss regarding training.

Online training allows for a much greater range of customization. You can create an effective program that aligns with their development progress by identifying areas where they excel and those requiring extra attention or modification.

Plus, you’ll have access to plenty of support from OneMind Dogs. We pride ourselves on offering advice and personal feedback from experienced trainers who are experts at dog training. So, there’s no need to worry about receiving optimal support throughout their journey.

And who doesn’t love sharing success stories? Our platform encourages users to share testimonials from fellow dog owners. Like you, these people experienced firsthand the benefits of our tailored approach. You’ll find plenty of cute photos and videos, too! If you enjoy listening to podcasts, you can hear more about the dog’s perspective by listening to ours!

Experienced, professional trainers

You want someone knowledgeable and dedicated by your side throughout this process. We’ve got just what you need! Rest assured that our trainers have extensive dog behavior knowledge. They can teach you all about positive reinforcement techniques, building lasting connections and other essential skills. 

The best part? It’s all included as part of your subscription. You gain valuable insights from years of hands-on experience working with dogs of various breeds, ages, and backgrounds. This means that your dog benefits from tried-and-tested methods to address its needs. And you can contact our coaching team at any time to ask questions or send in videos for feedback and suggestions!

Using online courses as a supplement to in-person lessons

We get it; some people appreciate the socialisation and the human element that comes with in-person sessions. And that’s totally fine! But did you know that you can still benefit from online courses even if you’re attending traditional classes? The two approaches don’t have to be mutually exclusive.

Online courses offered by OneMind Dogs serve as a fantastic supplement to in-person lessons. They provide additional resources, tips, and guidance whenever needed. Combining these methods gives your dog the best of both worlds. They get a well-rounded education backed by hands-on experience and valuable expertise accessible permanently!

You’ll enjoy the benefits of flexibility and convenience provided by our online platform while reinforcing those essential skills learned during in-person lessons.
