Steven Wood is the full-time, lead dog trainer for Phoenix Valley Dog Training. He has been training dogs in the Phoenix valley for many years and is also the owner of the Phoenix franchise of the Canine Dimensions Home Dog Training Company, a national company specializing in humane, dog-friendly training methods.

Steve and his bulldog, Tigger, live in Peoria, Arizona and service the entire Phoenix Valley. He has successfully trained hundreds of dogs over the years and is recognized for his abilities by The International Association of Canine Professionals and The Association of Pet Dog Trainers.

Steve is also a certified evaluator for the American Kennel Club's Canine Good Citizen program and he is Red Cross certified in Canine CPR and First Aid.

Always having a love for dogs, Steve began training them at an early age. Working with dogs that belonged to family members and friends, he soon realized that he had a gift for communicating with the animals, as well as, for his ability to communicate with and teach the owners how to help their dogs respond to them consistently.

He quickly turned this hobby into a profession, becoming a nationally recognized Certified Dog Behavior Advisor and traveling the entire state of Arizona to help people resolve the problems that they are facing with their furry friends.

We've received incredible feedback about Steve and intend to continue our relationship with him as long as he is training dogs. The most common things that we hear about Steve are that his sense of humor makes the sessions very fun and enjoyable and that his abilities to counsel and teach people are second only to his abilities with the animals themselves.
