Professional San Francisco Dog Training
By the Bay Dog Training is a local dog training company that provides in-home dog behavior training and dog obedience training for dogs of all ages, breeds and behavior problems. Our speciality is correcting the more severe behavior issues like aggression, reactivity, and anxiety, but we also have a puppy training program and we train adult dogs who are need of basic training.
Behavioral change is possible when you train with us!
Private Dog Training and Behavior Modification in the San Francisco Bay Area
We are proud to provide premier dog training classes in the East Bay, Palo Alto and San Francisco area. The first step in our training process is a 2 hour behavior consultation where we meet you and your dog to see exactly what is going on first hand. This consultation is no obligation which means you do not have to move forward with the training plan if you don’t feel it’s a good fit. Our goal is for every dog owner to have success with their dog!
Meet the San Francisco Dog Trainer
Mark Peña- Professional Dog Trainer
Through expert knowledge and genuine compassion, Mark strives to help families and their dogs find harmony in the home. He does so by teaching balanced, science-based training methods that improve both behavior and communication between canines and their humans. Mark offers a full range of companion dog training from beginning puppy essentials, and fundamental obedience, to resolving a majority of behavioral issues including anxiety, aggression, and poor manners in mature dogs of any age, and any breed.
Mark grew up surrounded by dogs and has always shared a natural affinity with them. He was enthralled as he watched his father train their family dogs to hunt, flush out, and retrieve pheasant. Mark was also inspired by his brother’s ability to train his own dog and used that inspiration to train one of her pups to be a companion dog for his grandparents. It was a labor of love he never imagined would someday turn into his own independent business, but that’s just what happened after Mark met up with renown dog trainer John Van Olden, founder of the Canine Trade Group.

Why Choose Private Training?
Private, in-home dog training is the most recommend dog training style because it allows a certified dog trainer to work with the dog and owner in the environment they spend majority of their time in. It also allows for us to create a customized training plan based on the individual needs of the dog.
Most behavior cases tend to vary which is why having a plan designed specifically for your dog will get you the most success!
