Student Quote
I feel like my doggie-blindfold has been removed, and I can now appreciate my dogs better by understanding them on their own terms.
Kate N.Training & Behavior Combo Course Graduate
Educationally enriching – I’ve been doing this a long time and am always looking to discover exciting new ways of training, living, and learning with dogs. I loved your session.
Maureen R.APDT Conference
I couldn’t wait to get started! I’ve always thought I knew more about animals than the average person, but this course has made me realize how little I actually know. I’m completely intrigued by animal behavior research and am excited to learn more.
Julia U., CCDTNow a Master Class Graduate
I read through the Phase 4 info on the subway to work and I am SO EXCITED to get started on this one!
Hollie E.Master Class Student
I’ve been very impressed with [my student] Kathleen and what she’s learned through CATCH’s curriculum.

I just have to say that you guys ROCK! I’m so thrilled with the first several video lessons and I already received my books in the mail today! I know I made the right choice and I’m confident that I’m going to get a great education. Thank you for the great service and quality. Here we go!
Abbie D.Master Class Student
This was an excellent explanation of back chaining which is a process I find difficult to articulate to people. Thank you so much for this learning opportunity, I truly enjoyed the webinar.
Glenna W.Certified Professional Dog Trainer
This is an amazing staff at CATCH Academy! I learned SO MUCH. The best part about this great company is the communication.
Lois B.CCDT, Master Class Graduate
Every page of the study guide has kept me wanting to read more, I am so excited about that.
Patti C.Basics Pro Student
Friends at CATCH, thank you for the wonderful, insightful and compassionate insight into helping anxious and fearful dogs achieve confidence and joy.
Dot R.Basics Pro Student
Over her year with CATCH, I have watched [my student] Jane’s confidence bloom. It never occurred to me this would be one side benefit of the CATCH program – it can change people’s lives! Jane hit the ground running and never looked back.
Nancy B.Certified Mentor TrainerDe Tour Village, MI
We loved seeing the educational training videos shot live, watching David work magic in a matter of moments with two of our shelter dogs. All positive training! Highly recommend as in 5 stars!
Gisella M.Zani's Furry Friends Rescue
I just started my own pet sitting business. I saw your video series posted and just watched. Wow! I can’t wait to see the rest of them in this series. Thank you for sharing your knowledge!
Teri M.Pet Friends Pet & Farm Sitting, LLC
My Mentor Trainer gave me an offer to stay on as a helper after the six weeks because she is getting busy. 🙂 I said ‘OF COURSE’ I would love to!
Vincent O., CCDTMaster Class Graduate
Our dog has always been shy, timid, and stand offish. These are great training ideas and we’re going to explore them.
Megan C.APDT Conference
I wanted to take the opportunity to say thank you again for the webinars. They have all been interesting, informative, and a true bright spot in my week! I have already been able to put some of what I have learned to good use in training my own rescue dog, George, and he seems to genuinely enjoy our training sessions.
Jon L.New Jersey
Phase 4…LOVING IT! This is so much fun. The videos are great. I’m really learning a lot about the correct way to train. My Mentor is awesome! What a nice guy. He has been more than able to answer my questions.
Debbie B, CCDTNow a Master Class Graduate
Working with my Mentor was so much fun that it made the learning easy. He is very knowledgeable and professional. A real inspiration.
Debbie B., CCDTMaster Class Graduate
I LOVE this program! The personal assistance is like no other. I was told about this school from a trainer that has been in the business for a long time. She recommended it because of the training techniques versus other academies that still focus on traditional methods. I volunteer at my local shelter and the dogs respond so well to these techniques, it’s truly amazing to see.
Rachel R.Master Class Student
It’s not just the basics in dog training with CATCH. It’s a more in depth curriculum. I wanted a school to help me with ‘why dogs have fear aggression’ and ‘why they suffer from separation anxiety.’ Studying here, I will be able to answer those questions.
Amanda P.Master Class Student
I wanted to take a minute to say thank you for today’s “CATCH of the DAY” segment. It had personal significance for me…I am so grateful for your passionate work of creating and sharing these tools about resource guarding for fostering a better human-dog connection.
Amy T.Shelter Volunteer, St. Hubert's Animal Welfare Center
Thank you so much for these great webinars. Very nice videos embedded within the session! The videos took it up a notch!

[Referring to Arminda, Program Director] I’m so excited to graduate!!! Thank you Arminda for everything you’ve done to help me and explain things along the way. You’re truly the best Program Director!
Paula M.Core Skills Graduate
I am SO glad I chose to pursue my certification with this school. My Program Director was wonderful. She took the time to answer my many questions, made me feel valued, and always assured me that I was doing well.
Michelle K.CCDT, Master Class Graduate
I love how full of info your videos are. David does an amazing job at simplifying it all, just wow these first 6 lessons really blew my mind, I love it.
Emanuel H.Basics Pro Student
This school completely changed my life. I was training prior to this school and wish I did this course sooner. There’s so much that I learned here that has completely changed how I train and communicate with customers.
Jessica V.Core Skills Graduate
Thank you for all this wonderful content! You made the topic come to life!!

This was a really great video and I especially enjoyed it. It was very helpful to see David break it all down. Thanks! I’m looking forward to watching more of your webinars.

Wow. What a difference this course is making in my training. I actually see my dog and I communicating better with all the little things like sound and body language. It’s so cool, I am loving this!

Love to hear you speak and watch you train. I love all the visuals and simple, practical advice. Thank you for yesterday’s session.

The training works fast and the dog clearly understands exactly what behavior is being rewarded. I really appreciate this course and I cannot explain how much it means to me.
Ruth C.Master Class Student
Thank you for providing the complimentary CEU videos. I just finished watching Slick Training Setups: Advanced Recall with Distractions. I got some great tips to use in class… thank you.
John S.Certified Professional Dog Trainer
I am a mentor to CATCH student Dextre and he was amazing! Not only did he have the skill I’d seen with his dogs during performance, but he was excellent in his evaluations…I was truly even more impressed than I thought I’d be. I’m so glad he’ll be a CATCH graduate.
Camille A.CATCH Graduate and Mentor Trainer
[Referring to David Murriello, School Director] You’re a wonderful caring teacher who’s extremely authentic.
Ellen O.Pro Training Skills Workshop Graduate
Really one of the best decisions I ever made was to become a CATCH student. Have learned so much and working with my mentor trainer has been a huge plus for me, too. Her input helped me make the decision to go for it!!
Susan B., CCDTMaster Class Graduate
CATCH is the only training group I know of that promotes positive and intelligent methods without gimmicks or aversives. Recently someone asked me if I knew of a good way to get certified as a trainer, and I referred CATCH immediately. You guys are doing things right. Keep up the good work!
Nancy B.Certified Mentor TrainerDe Tour Village, MI
Thanks again for all the help. Your customer support is just fantastic. Doesn’t even come close to any other schools I have contacted.
Erika G.Master Class Student
CATCH is very convenient. I have 3 busy kids and a household to coordinate, and my job is 45 minutes in the opposite direction of all three schools. CATCH lets me study at my pace, providing me help any time I have a question.
Camille A.Basics Pro Student
[My student] Camille was absolutely amazing! She explains everything extremely well and has great understanding of all issues. Great addition to the dog training world!
Jamie D.Certified Mentor TrainerDeerfield Beach, FL
[I am a Mentor Trainer and] I’m impressed with my student’s level of education. She knows the science behind what she’s doing, and is familiar with all the ‘icons’ of the industry. Good job, CATCH. 🙂
Leah R.Certified Mentor TrainerOrlando, FL
I have been volunteering at a shelter for over one year now. There are several fearful dogs that I’ve been walking, and watching this lesson gave me great insight as to how I may work with them. I’m excited to start. Thank you!
Bob K.Master Class Student
CATCH exceeded all expectations! The material was extremely thorough and informative and having a local mentor to shadow allowed for me to see the application of what I was learning in the course.
Rachel S.CCDT, Master Class Graduate
This is so exciting. I just mentioned your school and already was offered a job as a trainer.
Deborah G.Training & Behavior Combo Course Graduate
I really appreciate the fast replies from Student Support and my Program Director, as well as the individualized attention. I’m so glad I signed up for this program!
Kate N.Now a Training & Behavior Combo Course Graduate
I am so glad to be taking this course as I am learning so much and able to put that knowledge to immediate use with the dogs.
Ronda W.Now a Basics Pro Graduate
I was able to meet with [my student] Heather today and she is just fantastic. She was so prepared, engaged and ready to learn. She presented the information in a very clear and concise manner. I think she has a very bright future ahead of her.
Vrnda B.Certified Mentor TrainerSouthern Pines, North Carolina
I got everything yesterday and have already begun! I did the reading for the first section of Phase 1 and the practice questions! Thanks so much, I am so enjoying it already!!! 🙂
Kate D., CCDTNow a Master Class Graduate
Learning more about how dogs think leads to a lot of positive changes in how you interact with them. Dogs are so special and I’m excited to help people better understand them so that more can live long lives with loving families.
Hollie E.Master Class Student
I have so enjoyed David’s video lessons!! I love continuing to learn and to put that learning into action with my clients! As you know, I think the CATCH team is AWESOME!!!!!! I will always be glad that I chose CATCH to pursue my knowledge and love of working with dogs…and the people who love them!
