I am Wendy Raymond and I have been involved in training dogs since 1991. I formed Training Humans For Dogs because of my love for animals and a philosophy that teaching owners how to communicate with their dog will benefit the dog and human in their relationship for the life of the dog. 

I have worked for a breeder, in a kennel, at a veterinarian, at a veterinarian Referral and Emergency Clinic, and a SPCA.  From those years of experience in the areas of obedience and agility, I have obtained a 4th ranked Boxer rating in national agility championship trials.  I graduated from the Animal Behavior College and been involved with the SPCA and IACP dog programs. Training Humans For Dogs proudly serves Prince William County including the communities of Manassas, Manassas Park, Ashburn, Chantilly, Centreville, Haymarket, and Gainesville with the finest dog training and obedience classes in Northern Virginia. I will serve other Northern Virginia locations upon request and approval.


I am proud to use training modeled after Cesar Millan, The Dog Whisperer. My goal is to have you and your dog become a well rounded pack. To help identify the issues the dog maybe having and teach the owner to be able to handle their dog. To show the owner how to identify the dogs body language and what they are saying or not saying. To show you the owner what your body language is saying and not saying to the dog. To teach the owner the basic concepts a dog NEEDS to have to be a balanced dog. Every dog comes with lessons and rules that their mother and other siblings taught them before they came to us. I show you those lessons that they learned so you can communicate to your dog what he/she all ready knows.


I address the following behavior concerns and show you how to handle them!

  • Pulling on leash
  • Hyperactive dog
  • Obsessive with toys
  • Nuisance barking
  • Aggression with dogs or people
  • Jumping up on humans
  • Housebreaking
  • Inappropriate chewing
  • Separation anxiety
  • Bringing home a baby

I will help you identify and address doggy behavior concerns like nipping, biting, chewing, hyper activity, and obsessive behavior. Show you how to properly exercise your dog and the difference between "play time" exercise and "mental exercise" and make it part of you and your dog's life. It is important for your dog not to be living with pent up energy, to be walked everyday, and earn play time.
