What we offer

Hi, We're So Glad Your Here!

Welcome to Think Like A Dog University - where science, compassion, and connection come together to help you unlock the best in your dog!

Founded by me, Penny DiLoreto, CPDT-KA, and created to bridge the gap between dogs and their people. I  believe that when you truly understand how your dog thinks, communicates, and learns, you can create a stronger bond, better behavior, and happier lives - for both of you.

You will discover that all the courses here at Think Like A Dog University are build around positive reinforcement, humane training methods, and real-world success strategies that you can use every day. Whether you're raising a new puppy, working through behavior challenges, or just wanting to deepen your relationship with your dog, you will find the courses to be easy-to-follow, self-paced and designed for pet parents of all experience levels.
  • At Think Like A Dog University, I am:
    • Committed to Science-Based Learning: Only force-free, proven traning techniques.
    • Focused on Empowerment: My goal is to give you the tools to be your dog's best advocate and teacher.
    • Driven by Compassion: Every dog, every person, and every journey deserves understanding and support.
  • I believe in creating a community where learning is fun, mistakes are part of the process, and every step forward deserves celebration. Thank you for trusting me and Think Like A Dog University to be part of your dog training journey.
    I am excited to help you learn, grow, and succeed.
