Welcome To
Joseph’s Obedience Training School was founded in 1995 by Joseph Mendonca. Our clientele come from all over Cape Cod and the South Shore to train their dogs. We are a full service training center, teaching through positive motivation reinforcement. The classes we offer include Puppy Kindergarten, Obedience Levels 1, 2 & 3, Novice, Open & Utility, Rally-O, Agility, Nose Work® and Canine Good Citizen.
Dog obedience training is an important part of having a happy and successful relationship with your canine companion. It helps your pet understand and obey commands, which helps keep them safe and well-behaved.
Canine Good Citizen is a fantastic program that helps to ensure that our furry best friends are well-mannered and well-behaved companions. It provides valuable training and socialization opportunities, helping dogs to become model citizens.
Rally-O is similar to traditional obedience training, but emphasizes a more relaxed and interactive connection between you and your dog. You and your dog will work together to complete a course of numbered exercises comprised of fun heeling patterns, sits, downs, fronts and finishes. Rally-O is a fun and interactive way to strengthen your bond with your dog while having a blast!
We are proud to have a team of experienced and knowledgeable dog trainers. With years of experience working with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments, our trainers have the skills and expertise necessary to help pet owners achieve their training goals.
Our trainers are passionate about dogs and dedicated to helping pet owners build strong, positive relationships with their furry friends. They understand the unique needs and personalities of each dog and use positive reinforcement techniques to encourage good behavior and build confidence. Our trainers are patient, understanding, and always willing to go the extra mile to ensure that pet owners and their dogs have a successful and enjoyable training experience.
Agility classes with Lori Nieves are the absolute best! She is a fantastic trainer who elevates our game. Classes are limited, so you get plenty of time to practice on the course. She really cares about her students and we love coming to work with her.

Joseph’s is one of the top training facilities on Cape Cod. I have done obedient training, agility training, show training, and very pleased every single time. I’m a breeder and anytime I sell one of my V’s on cape I always suggest Joseph’s obedience.

Jumpy just finished level one obedience – and she can’t wait to start level two next month, accompanied by her aunt Betty. This is our second generation of labs trained at Joseph’s and we wouldn’t go anywhere else. Absolutely the best!
