Want to become a trainer?
From passionate dog owner to structured, professional trainer — there's a clear path here.
Furtitude doesn't just train dogs.
We train trainers.
Four levels. One clear direction.
Get in the door.
Train alongside your dog in structured group sessions. Learn the fundamentals. Build the habits. This is where the journey starts.
Show us you're serious.
Submit your application and begin hands-on development under mentorship. Demonstrate skills, show consistency, and start building your training resume.
Lead sessions. Shape dogs. Grow the community.
Approved trainers run sessions, manage dogs through programs, and uphold the Furtitude standard — consistency, clarity, and accountability.
World-class standards, right here.
Aligned with IACP membership principles and CPDT-KA preparation. Advanced education, documented experience, and a path toward international recognition.
Professional Alignment
Furtitude is aligned with the IACP (International Association of Canine Professionals) as an international professional member. Our trainer development track is designed with CCPDT (Certification Council for Professional Dog Trainers) and IACP CDT certification standards in mind.
We encourage every trainer to work toward recognized certification pathways — including the CPDT-KA exam and the IACP CDT portfolio — through documented experience and structured education.
Because good enough isn't good enough.
