Dogs and Pet Owners Everywhere Will Thank You!

Walking nicely on leash isn’t just a polite behavior — it’s a life skill.
When dogs pull, lunge, or drag their people, it can damage the human-canine relationship, resulting in fewer walks, less exercise, and limited social exposure.

That’s why DogNostics created the Walk This Way Instructor Program — a complete, ready-to-teach curriculum designed to help you support pet parents and their dogs in developing calm, confident, cooperative leash-walking skills.

🌟 Welcome to Walk This Way!

- a complete, evidence-based program designed to help dogs and their guardians walk together in calm connection and cooperation.

You’ll explore the why behind leash-pulling and discover practical, force-free strategies to build focus, confidence, and teamwork. Through engaging lessons, games, and video demonstrations, you’ll learn how to teach and coach loose-leash walking with clarity, kindness, and professional skill.

🐾 For Pet Guardians:
Enjoy effective, real-world techniques to transform walks into relaxed, rewarding experiences.

🎓 For Trainers and Pet Professionals:
Gain a ready-to-teach, structured curriculum with full instructor support, handouts, and resources.

When you complete the program, you’ll also have the opportunity — with no obligation — to certify as a Walk This Way Instructor (DN-WTWI), earning your official certificate and credential badge to proudly display your expertise and commitment to force-free training.

Walk This Way — where every step builds confidence, connection, and calm communication!
