When it comes to puppy training, there’s a lot of confusing and conflicting advice out there. It can be really hard figuring out how to balance all the different considerations and put it all together and come up with a plan.

If you try to follow your gut or you follow the wrong advice it’s all too easy to end up with a puppy that:

  • Pees and poops all over your home
  • Chews and destroys your furniture, shoes, bags and other valuable objects
  • Bites, scratches, and jumps up on anyone and everyone with no control
  • Runs away when you try to pick them up
  • Barks uncontrollably at people, other dogs, and other animals
  • Cries in their crate, cries at night, and cries when left alone
  • Becomes fearful, reactive, and aggressive toward unfamiliar people and dogs


But with the right plan, it’s EASY and FUN to train your pup in such a way that you can prevent all of these problems.

The Dunbars INVENTED modern puppy training

In 1982,  Dr. Ian Dunbar  invented off-leash puppy training and socialization classes and revolutionized the world of dog training forever, when he founded SIRIUS® Puppy Training.

Since then, SIRIUS puppy training classes have been imitated all around the world, and at SIRIUS we have now trained more than 100,000 puppies! Ian has gone on to produce multiple books and videos, host a television program in the UK, found the world's largest professional association of dog trainers (The APDT), and give thousands of seminars and workshops about puppy and dog training.

In 2016, we created this website, Dunbar Academy to make our puppy and dog training content available online and on-demand, to students all around the world.

We have been refining and reinventing the best puppy training methods over the past four decades and now, with the Essential Puppy Training Course, Kelly Gorman Dunbar and Jamie Dunbar have taken all of our collective puppy training experience and expertise and distilled it into a single, simple, easy-to-follow course.

This is the most comprehensive and cohesive puppy training course in the world, created by the same team that invented and popularized modern puppy training classes.
