Train It Forward
This year, give the gift of guidance.
Set them up for success.
Through the end of 2025, we are offering an opportunity to make a meaningful difference in a rescue dog’s new beginning. When you purchase a Train It Forward session, you’re gifting a newly adopted dog and their family a virtual training experience with our expert team. It’s practical, personal, and deeply impactful, helping humans and dogs navigate the early days of adjustment with confidence and compassion.
How It Works
Your purchase funds a one-on-one virtual session led by an Opportunity Barks trainer. We match your gift with a recently adopted rescue dog and their new family, providing tailored support for settling in, establishing structure, and building trust. You’ll receive a confirmation of your contribution and updates as your session is delivered to a dog in need.
Why It Matters
Adoption is only the beginning! Real transformation happens when a dog feels safe, understood, and guided with care. Your generosity bridges that gap. Each Train It Forward session helps lower the chances of rehoming, eases stress for both ends of the leash, and sets the stage for a strong, lasting bond.
Thank You
By choosing to Train It Forward, you’re not just gifting training; you’re giving a rescue dog the chance to truly come home.
“Before Opportunity Barks, walks with my dog were stressful and frustrating — constant pulling, barking at other dogs, and major anxiety around trucks and other loud noises. We’d tried other programs, but nothing stuck. I was feeling helpless and hopeless.
From day one in the City Dog Day School program, Ashlee and the team created a plan that worked. I quickly saw changes and finally felt like I could communicate with my dog. She was excited to go to school, and I started enjoying our walks again.
She’s not perfect yet, but now I have the tools and confidence to help her keep improving — and our bond is stronger than ever. Highly recommend!”
