Turn your dog`s zoomies into zen and change that chaotic energy into calm confidence with effective training.

Professional Obedience Training for Dogs with Personality

Why Choose Quirky Canines Over the Big-Name Trainers?

A lot of electronic collar dog trainers you see are actually independent contractors working for large nationwide brands. That means they answer to corporate policies, sales quotas, and shareholders—not to you and your dog. Their focus is often on bringing in new leads and closing more sales, not ensuring that you and your dog truly succeed.

At Quirky Canines, we’re different. We’re a local Newton, Iowa business, and our priority is you and your dog’s success—not a corporate bottom line. We believe in responsible pet ownership and building confidence in both dogs and their owners.

When you train with us, you’re not just another client on a spreadsheet—you’re part of a community that cares about making Iowa a place where well-trained, happy dogs thrive.

🇺🇲Support local. Train smarter. Build confidence. Message us today to learn more! 🐾

🛑Thinking about sending your dog to a big-name, “well known” trainer? Ask them this: Where will my dog stay when not training? Most nationwide companies provide their independent contractors with tiny, cramped travel kennels—hardly a place for your dog to rest and recover after a long day of training. At Quirky Canines, we do things differently. Our dogs stay in 40 sq. ft., temperature-controlled kennels, inspected and approved by the Department of Agriculture. Plenty of room to stretch, relax, and feel at home. We offer high quality training. A high standard of care and spacious, comfortable accommodations. Don’t pay more for less. Give your dog the training they deserve—without sacrificing their comfort!
