“ We recently adopted a dog that exhibits some dog aggression, is very skittish and to make it more challenging he is not motivated by food. I have had dogs all my life and have successfully trained several with very little outside help. Ollie, however, is the exception. I tried everything that worked with past pups with little result. I quickly realized I needed some professional help. I went in to the Zoom Room and from the moment I walked in the training began. John asked me to take his prong collar off. My immediate reaction was no way, I can't manage him without it, I have always used them. I was nervous but he explained that dog training is not as archaic as it once was and there are more effective positive ways to train your dog starting with the collar. He was right.

“ We took our two dogs for a private gym session for our eldest dog’s birthday. She is currently doing chemo treatments, so we were looking for a clean environment with no other dogs where she can just run and play off leash. The Zoom Room exceeded expectations!! The staff is tremendously kind and accommodating, and the facility is amazing with so many activities. Our girls were worn out but very happy!...” [Read More]

– Lisa Eure and Bevan
“ Right after moving to Austin, I adopted a puppy from a local rescue group (APA!) and knew I wanted to take him to training but didn’t know where to go, so I asked some of the other APA! adopters and Zoom Room was suggested. To say I wasn’t disappointed would be an understatement. Every staff member I’ve met is nice, happy to answer your questions, and doesn’t just talk to you, but your pet. The facility is always clean. And they understand that some days your pup may be difficult and they never make you feel bad for that. Our tainer Ashely has definitely been a blessing for Chrysanthemum and me, as I’m sure she is with her other trainees as well. If she sees that a pup is progressing faster or not responding to a certain cue she shows the owner something new. She also ...” [Read More]

“ Maple thoroughly enjoys visiting this new Zoom Room - from the events, the classes, the private gyms, and even snagging a treat or two in the retail shop! The facility is so nice and clean, which is so highly appreciated when the weather isn't great and with the current dog influenza going around. We love going and I love that I can already see some improvements in Maple's behavior from the obedience classes! Can't wait until our next visit!...” [Read More]

TRAIN.
How Our Classes Work
At the Zoom Room, we don’t train dogs. We train the people who love them. We’ve redefined dog training, with classes specially designed to build confidence and success as dogs master skills in a simple, step-by-step process.
We utilize only positive dog training methods, which your entire family can easily master and embrace. You will be actively engaged in your dog’s training, working as a team as you learn to communicate more effectively with your dog. So what you learn at the Zoom Room doesn’t have to stay at the Zoom Room. Behaviors will naturally transition to life at home with your dog.
Our indoor dog training gym offers small group classes in agility, obedience, puppy and socialization classes with the best dog trainers in NYC – Chelsea, NY. Private, one-on-one training scheduled to your convenience is also available.
Getting Started
Your dog training journey always begins with either an Orientation or an Evaluation.

- If you can’t attend a scheduled Orientation, please call us so we can accommodate you, even remotely
Evaluation
- $39, 30 min, attend with your dog, bring your vaccination records

- Attend if you’re concerned your dog may be too reactive for group classes, if you’d like to place into more advanced coursework, or if you need help coming up with a training plan
Group Classes

- Flexible Schedule: Class packs can be used for any class, day or time
- Advanced courses have prerequisites to enter
- Levels Training: work at your own pace and graduate to the next level when you and your dog have mastered the skills
- You can enroll in class at any time because everyone is working at different levels and advances at different paces from each other

- You’d like to focus on a specific behavior issue

- Your dog is exhibiting problem behaviors that only appear at home
- You are traveling out of town with your dog
Puppy Training
The Zoom Room wrote the book on puppy training. Literally. “Puppy Training in 7 Easy Steps: Everything You Need to Know to Raise the Perfect Dog” is the best-selling dog training book in America.
Luckily for you and your puppy, you live in NYC – Chelsea and can enjoy early socialization and puppy training classes right here at your local Zoom Room!
Puppy Preschool
With an emphasis on socialization including group play time for the puppies, this introduction to puppy obedience addresses common challenges with raising and training a puppy. (Ages 2-4 mo.)
Puppy Training+
Start smart with puppy manners: get your puppy’s attention, sit, down, stay and leash walking. Plus, enhance communication and build confidence with puppy agility, tricks, and Pup-lates®. (Ages 4-8 mo.)
Obedience Training
Dog obedience training at Zoom Room NYC – Chelsea begins with basic manners. You’ll work as a team, using positive reinforcement to effectively communicate the desired behavior. Further classes incorporate distractions, off-leash work, and more advanced handling.
We use only positive reward based training methods as these are both the most effective as well as easy to master by every member of your family. We weave innovative games into the curriculum for maximum engagement.
Obedience
In Obedience, you and your dog will learn and practice basic manners and obedience skills. Trainers will coach you at your dog’s skill level with games and individual instruction in a group environment. Once you and your dog have demonstrated proficiency in the above skills, you will be approved to move into the Advanced Obedience class.
Advanced Obedience
Advanced Obedience builds upon the skills learned in Obedience. In Advanced Obedience, we help you transfer those basic manners skills to real world applications. Classes focus on fun ways to practice skills in new locations and learning how to generalize behaviors in preparation for the AKC’s Canine Good Citizen test. As you progress through Advanced Obedience, you may even find yourself working on additional skills to prepare you for Rally Obedience classes or Therapy Dog Workshops!
Agility Training
Every dog can enjoy dog agility training at the Zoom Room – any breed, size or age. Agility is an exhilarating dog sport that relies on close teamwork. You’ll be amazed at how it deepens the bonds of communication as you work your way through our obstacle course.
When you participate in dog agility training, you will experience immediate results not just on the course, but at home with a more relaxed, confident and well-behaved best friend. And if you get really hooked and proceed through the advanced levels, you can join our incredibly entertaining Agility League!
Agility
In Agility, you and your dog will be introduced to all of our beginning agility equipment. This class focuses on building your dog’s confidence on all obstacles and improving your handling skills. To move on to Advanced Agility, the dog should be able to work off leash through a short 6-obstacle course without any food lures.
Advanced Agility
In Advanced Agility, we take the foundation skills from Agility and add distance and height. We focus on improving handler skills so the dog can take the obstacles more independently. While Basic Agility focuses a lot on the dog’s skills, Advanced Agility builds upon the handler’s skills to help build a stronger, smoother Human-Dog Team.
Enrichment Classes And Workshops
Keep your dog active with innovative dog training classes you won’t find anywhere else in NYC – Chelsea. Great for dogs that need more – or perhaps better – hobbies. Beyond sit and stay, there’s still so much to learn!
Most workshops tackle a specific subject matter in a six-week curriculum (three weeks for a few). Enrichment classes such as Dog Tricks are ongoing group classes you can fold into your weekly training plan.

Dogs use their noses to herd balls (not sheep) into a goal in this wonderful dog sport that’s not just for herding breeds. Watch your dog master off-leash obedience.
Pup-lates®
Develop core control, athleticism and balance with gym-quality equipment. Perfect for dogs recovering from injuries, seniors, or those who could stand to lose a few pounds.
Calm Down!
Does your dog get rambunctious, excited and uncontrollable? This workshop teaches self-control techniques to calm your dog around distractions. Perfect for adolescent dogs.
Practical Canine Care
