About this program

What they say about themselves

Gordon Webster runs this in-home training service across a specific slice of Los Angeles—Venice, Marina Del Rey, Playa Vista, Culver City West, Mar Vista, and lower Santa Monica. There's no facility; he comes to you.

According to his site, Webster's approach centers on what he calls "calm leadership and clear communication," combining structure with reward-based methods. Programs are organized by age: puppies from 8 weeks through adolescence at 9 months and beyond, with each stage addressing different developmental challenges. The puppy programs include weekly goals and socialization checklists, while adolescent training focuses on impulse control and real-world manners like not pulling or jumping.

One unusual offering: scent detection training, where dogs learn to identify specific target odors like birch, anise, and clove. The site also mentions that clients can text Webster directly with questions. Before training begins, owners complete a questionnaire about their dog's personality and challenges, which he uses to customize the program. The website appears somewhat dated and provides limited detail about Webster's background or training credentials.

What does Webster's Dog Training charge for board and train?

In-home training spans every life stage, from 8-week-old puppies through adult dogs. Webster's Dog Training structures programs by age: early puppy work (8-12 weeks) emphasizes socialization and basic obedience, while older puppies add leash skills. Dogs 9 months and up can pursue advanced obedience or specialized scent detection training.

What board & train costs in Los Angeles
