Our approach to training continues to evolve. We call it training for the real world. That means we want you to have your dream dog with you wherever you go. Imagine having a dog you incorporate into your active lifestyle, and the thought of leaving him/her at home because of their naughtiness is a thing of the past. Our dog training school offers 1-on-1, in-person lessons around the globe (yep, Ryan is committed to your and your K9 and will travel anywhere in the world to see you both succeed!), along with an all inclusive board and train program where your dog actually lives with a dog trainer 24/7, a growing library of e-courses (DIY Dog Training On-Demand Videos), a 30 day Train The Trainer School where we certify you as a dog trainer and help you earn over $100,000 a year, and lastly dog training books written by our Head Trainer and Founder, Ryan Matthews.

We are veteran owned and operated. Our Head Trainer, Ryan Matthews, has been training dogs since 2002. He began his career in dog training with training and handling elite Military Working Dogs (MWDs). While in the Army, he performed bite protection training, bomb threat sweeps, secret service missions, and combat deployment to Iraq (with his MWD, Zito) where he worked with Special Forces and Infantry units.

Upon the completion of our program, you will not just be a dog owner, you will be a successful and confident dog handler. Trust us when we say, the difference truly is priceless! Not only will your pup be obedient off leash (even with distractions), you will be able to incorporate your dog into your lifestyle – hiking, enjoying time at your favorite café, even working at the office. And the real kicker? We will clear up common misconceptions about dog behavior by teaching you dog psychology. Where we stand out from other conventional dog training is we teach you to speak dog. Seriously, our founder Ryan Matthews has cracked the canine code and we stand ready to share it with you. You will also learn to speak to your dog without saying a word and understand him/her at a level that is so deep and special you may get the chills!

 

When you follow our carefully crafted system for success, we guarantee results.

FAQ

You Have Questions, We Have Answers:

How long are lessons?

We can assure you, you’ll love our answer. Lessons are trained to result, not time. That means we aren’t checking our watch nor do you pay extra for doing a long lesson. Most lessons are 1-2 hours.

How often do we meet for lessons?

We appreciate this question as it shows your dedication. For best results we like to see you every 7-10 days for a lesson.

How much do lessons cost?

We know that money matters, however we hope you value results over price. From our experience clients that are results focused are a good fit for our program versus those that are calling around price shopping. You will get an exact price once you meet with us, however the price varies between $1,000-$2,500 depending on the type of program.

What methods do you use?

In the dog training world there are two schools of thought. One reward only, the other correct only. We believe in both. That’s why we offer modern balanced dog training. When we talk, we will go over the variety of training tools which are food (reward), leash/collar, and stimulation collar (super low level like a tap on the shoulder). You get to decide the method that works best for you and your dog once we share the pros and cons of each method.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Life-Changing Dog Trainer! I can’t say enough amazing things about Ryan. I rescued my pup Onyx from a ditch, and as sweet as he was, he was wild—barking nonstop, not listening, and totally untamed. I honestly felt overwhelmed and unsure how to help him. From the very first session with Ryan, everything changed. His training methods are simple, clear, and incredibly effective. It’s like he speaks the dogs’ language. Onyx transformed almost instantly—calm, respectful, and so much more connected to me. It felt like I suddenly had a whole new dog, in the best possible way. Living in Nosara, where dogs run free everywhere, it’s hard to keep control on walks. But during training, dogs came up from all directions, and Onyx stayed composed, focused, and well-behaved. It blew my mind. Working with Ryan has been an absolute pleasure. He’s patient, kind, and truly gifted at what he does. If you’re struggling with your dog or just want a better relationship with them, Ryan is the person to call. He genuinely changed our lives. Highly, highly recommend!

Amazing! I can’t even begin to explain how much Ryan helped me and my dog Kaeli. She can walk by my side on or off leash, I can bring her off leash with confidence now, bring her to restaurants and cafes, she doesn’t jump up on the guests when they arrive. She stays back when I open the driveway gate and lays down now, and we play fetch with her ball more effectively. He’s amazing and couldn’t have done it without him. Pura vida. Gracias.

I have a one year old Bernadoodle. I highly recommend World Of Dog Training with Ryan! He is absolutely amazing and has done incredible things with Samson. We have had 4 sessions and the difference is amazing! I have learned so much from him. If you’re looking for a trainer that’s going to understand your dog, Ryan is the guy! He tailors the training to fit your lifestyle, not a cookie cutter trainer. I promise you won’t be disappointed!

Ryan is amazing! My 6-month Bernedoodle was overstimulated and chaotic on walks, grabbing the leash, even nipping at me. After just one session, the change was incredible. A month later, she’s calm on walks, follows commands, and knows her “place” at home. If you’re serious about training and ready to follow his guidance, Ryan and World of Dog training are the real deal.

If I could give more than five stars, I absolutely would. Ryan is an outstanding dog trainer with a rare ability to connect not only with animals but with their people as well. He demonstrated incredible patience while working with us and our four dogs—all of different ages, breeds, and personalities. His clear communication and supportive approach made the entire training process comfortable and effective. The difference in our dogs’ behavior, and in our confidence as owners, has been truly remarkable. We are extremely grateful for Ryan and his expertise and look forward to continuing training sessions with him.

What can I say? Ryan is a miracle worker! You think that you’re about to have your dog trained, but in reality you as the human are being trained. Ryan was able to teach my partner and I exactly what we needed to do to get our very dominant, highly demanding and even aggressive Pomeranian under control. It’s been just over a week since we worked with Ryan and we have seen exponential change in our dog. I seriously cannot believe how far we’ve come in such a short amount of time. There is no way we could’ve figured this out on our own. Ryan’s teachings are unique and sensible. If you are open to Implementing small changes and sticking to it, you will find the greatest reward. The relationship with our rescue, Pomeranian has grown more affectionate and respectful. The loud screeching barking has almost subsided altogether. It is a work in progress, but with what we’ve seen in such a short amount of time, I can’t imagine doing things any other way. Here’s a couple of Coleslaw pics in his place, like a good boy. Thanks, Ryan. You are a Godsend for pet owners.
