From Willow Glen sidewalks to weekends at Almaden Lake, your dog should listen the first time. Our balanced, science-led approach builds clear communication and steady behavior across the places you actually go in San Jose.
We start by teaching a simple marker system so your dog understands exactly what earns reward. Short, upbeat reps create engagement and confidence before we add any accountability. When skills are fluent, we introduce fair, minimal pressure to make them durable without dulling attitude or drive.
Foundations leave the training space quickly. We proof loose-leash walking along Santana Row, practice long-line recall near the Municipal Rose Garden, and hold a calm “place” while you pick up coffee downtown or in Japantown. Tools match the dog and the job—food and toys first; prong or remote collars, when appropriate, are used thoughtfully and transparently. You’ll get straightforward homework and coaching so results stick with you, not just the trainer.
Expect quieter greetings, slack in the leash, recalls that cut through noise on the Guadalupe River Trail, and the ability to settle when life is busy. Stress drops on both ends of the lead and routines smooth out. This is San Jose Dog Training built for real-world reliability—so you and your dog can enjoy the city with confidence.
Working with Jordan was an absolute pleasure. I knew May was in the best hands throughout her board and train. Jordan was extremely flexible in working with both my partner and myself to teach us both how to communicate with May to maintain her training.
After returning home, Coco has so much more confidence and control on walks and in public -- and Jordan trained us how to effectively use tools to reward and maintain that behavior. Even weeks after Coco returned home, I'm continually impressed at how differently she behaves during walks. Highly recommend Jordan and Mantra K9 for anyone looking to improve their relationship and communication with their dog(s)!
Jordan is incredibly patient, knowledgeable, and really understands each dog’s unique personality. She is attentive and thorough in her training approach, which proved to be both practical and extremely effective.
We couldn’t be more grateful for the amazing experience we had with Jordan and her team at Mantra K9. Our Weimaraner, Zeke, completed their 6-week board and train program, and the results have been incredible.
Jordan is beyond talented. She worked with our two loves: Shakira (1 year & 10 months Husky) and Beyonce (1 year & 3 months German Shepherd). She helped us with a number of behavior issues: walking the girls on a leash without them pulling on the leash; Beyonce's high anxiety levels; out of control playing and barking at each other.Jordan taught us how to work with our girls and have a healthier routine for them.
