Del Mar is a small, polished beach village best known for the racetrack, the fairgrounds and Dog Beach at the north end of town. A well-behaved dog is welcome on almost every patio here, and a poorly behaved one stands out fast. Behavioral training from Got Sit San Diego starts in your Del Mar home, where the behavior actually happens. We look at your dog's history, your routine and your reactions, and change all three.

FREE CONSULTATION IN DEL MAR
Del Mar dogs spend winter mornings off leash at North Beach, walk past the shops and patios of the village along Camino del Mar, and hike the Torrey Pines trails just south, where coyotes, cliffs and crowds come into play. For a reactive dog, every one of those places is a trigger. Your Del Mar trainer starts at a distance where your dog stays calm, then closes the gap over sessions.
Del Mar dogs enjoy one of Southern California's great privileges: off-leash winter mornings at North Beach, better known as Dog Beach. Add the village's dog-friendly patios and the Torrey Pines trails just south, and solid training becomes essential. We prepare your pup to handle it all with beach-town manners that match the setting.
Housing in Del Mar is mostly higher-end single-family homes on small lots near the beach, condos along the bluffs and larger properties in Del Mar Heights and the hills above the fairgrounds. Behavioral training has to fit the home. In Del Mar we work on door manners for the dog that charges guests, place work for separation anxiety and a routine for the dog that barks at every noise.
Behavioral work in Del Mar is as much about you as the dog. Your trainer coaches how you hold the leash, when you speak and how you react when your dog tenses up.
Our behavioral training covers Del Mar Village, North Beach, Del Mar Heights, Del Mar Fairgrounds and every other Del Mar neighborhood, plus the rest of Coastal North County. Del Mar is the south end of our coastal route, often covered with Solana Beach, Carmel Valley and north San Diego on the same day.

GET STARTED
Four ways in, one method. Every program starts with private lessons in your home and is proofed in the real world with your trainer. We recommend one after the free consultation, not before.
For the young dog. Private lessons at home set the foundation, then real-world sessions as your puppy grows so good habits survive the teenage months.
Puppy trainingThe program everything else is built on. Private in-home lessons that graduate into real-world work, from kindergarten through university.
Obedience trainingBoard and train. Your dog stays with a trainer to build the foundation, then you take over a dog that already understands the language.
Board and trainFor fearful, confused, reactive or aggressive dogs. Clear leadership and a stronger bond so your dog can handle stress calmly.
Behavioral trainingEvery program we teach in Del Mar, from the first puppy lesson to advanced off-leash work.

What Del Mar dog owners ask us before the first lesson. Anything else, ask during your free in-home consultation.
In most cases, yes. Separation anxiety usually comes from a dog with no structure and no confidence that you are coming back. We build a calm routine in your Del Mar home around the crate or a place command, change how you leave and return, and extend the time apart slowly.
Yes. Barking and charging the door is a leadership problem, not a noise problem. Your trainer teaches your Del Mar dog to go to place when the doorbell rings and wait while you handle the greeting. Once your dog trusts you with the door, the barking stops.
Always. Behavior problems happen in context, and we need to see your dog in its own space to understand them. Your trainer comes to your Del Mar home for the consultation and the lessons, then moves the work outside into the situations that trigger your dog.
