Pros & cons
Pros
- spiritdogtraining.com and /online-dog-training 2026-09-02: U.S. consumer course catalog (Cedar Crest, NM contact on Trustpilot company card; Albuquerque trainer bio). Homepage: on-demand; 10 minutes a day; positive step-by-step; access on mobile or computer; 30-day money-back on every course; courses from as little as $49. Catalog sale prices captured: Rescue Dog Bundle $149 (was $823); Super Puppy $197 (was $407); Calm Walk Formula $169; Perfect Focus Bundle $169; Ultimate Reactivity Reset System $997 (was $3091). Private Mentorship (weekly 1:1 Zoom + daily texts) is Apply Now — no public USD on that card.
- FAQ: courses are pre-recorded videos you can use anytime; ask the trainer unlimited questions in the comments; SpiritDog Academy mentioned as 700+ lessons plus weekly Zoom (separate SKU). Head trainer Steffi Trott is named on Meet the Trainer (Albuquerque). Method: positive, science-based, 10-minute daily lessons. No e-collar requirement on the pages we scored.
- Refund: homepage 30-day money-back; FAQ (updated 2025-05-20 on that page) says 60 days, no questions asked. We quote both rather than inventing one window. No membership required to buy a single course. Instant access after signup.
Cons
- Main catalog is pre-recorded. Unlimited comment questions is not the same as an in-store class or a booked 1:1. Private Mentorship is application-only with no public price — not scored as a from-price. iOS and Android are not named as apps (mobile device access is). Quality app/locator +1 is zero; live teaching +2 is the named comment Q&A.
- Meet the Trainer does not name CPDT, IAABC, or similar — we do not invent letters. FAQ says every dog can learn and does not refer bite history or medical pain out to a veterinarian. Safety vaccine/refer-out and named-credential points are zero. Homepage “100% Satisfaction rate” is marketing, not a lab result.
- A reactivity course is not a diagnosis and not a substitute for a veterinary behaviorist when there is bite history, pain, or sudden change. Follow the current refund window on checkout, not our paraphrase.
