Rocklin, CA’s Best Dog Trainer!
We help dog owners build strong partnerships with their dogs...without the frustration of misbehavior, ensuring your dog is confident and well-trained at home and out in the world.
We Can Help Your Dog!
Your dog can listen and respond reliably to you
Behave calmly around people and dogs in many environments
Enjoy your walks without your dog pulling and lunging
Every day, we work with dog owners to turn struggles like these into confident solutions:
Dog jumps all over visitors and it's chaotic
I feel hopeless, none of the training methods are working, and even YouTube has let me down
Bolts out the door every chance they get, I’m terrified they’ll run into danger or never come back
We can’t enjoy a peaceful walk, it’s always a tug-of-war.
They just won’t sit or stay, not even for a second.
Playtime feels more like chaos than fun, it’s just exhausting

You deserve peaceful, enjoyable walks where your dog happily walks by your side without pulling, lunging, or creating chaos.A Calm Home Environment

You deserve to feel proud of your dog in any situation—at the park, on walks, or when company visits—without embarrassment or frustration.More Freedom and Adventures Together

“I spoke to my vet who recommended Derek to me. He is the only person who was able to train Bella and make it possible for me to enjoy walks with her without worrying about her getting aggressive.”

Be a Confident Dog Owner with Calm, Happy, and Well-Trained Dogs
At home or wherever life takes you, having a confident, obedient, and joyful dog makes all the difference. Our mission is to help you build that dream life together by fostering a strong, harmonious bond with your dog.
We don’t believe in a one-size-fits-all approach. Every dog-and-owner team is unique, and our training is tailored to what works best for both of you. Our goal is to help you reach your training milestones quickly and enjoyably, creating a partnership that lasts a lifetime.
Our training process starts by understanding what truly motivates your dog. By tapping into their natural instincts and communication style, we guide them to happily and willingly do what’s asked of them. From there, we teach your dog to be not just well-trained but your best friend and loyal companion.
Dogs aren’t all that different from humans—it’s the unique ways they communicate and perceive the world where most owners get stuck. That’s where we come in: to bridge that gap and create understanding.

At Confident Canine Coaching, we’re here to help you and your dog thrive together, confidently and happily!
