About Carlos Zarate

Welcome to my website! I’m Carlos, a Certified Master Dog Trainer based in New York with over 20 years of experience working with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. My extensive experience and deep passion for dogs have shaped my approach to training, which is focused on helping both dogs and their owners build strong, trusting, and respectful relationships. Whether you’re located in the bustling heart of New York City or the surrounding areas, I’m here to provide the expertise and support you need for your dog’s training journey.

Over the past two decades, I’ve had the privilege of working with a variety of dogs, each with their own personality and challenges, helping them achieve lasting behavioral changes and fostering better communication between owners and their pets. My training philosophy is built on positive reinforcement and tailored techniques that take into account the unique needs and personalities of each dog. Whether it’s resolving behavioral challenges, enhancing obedience, or providing specialized training, I am committed to creating a rewarding experience for both you and your dog.

As a Certified Master Dog Trainer, I bring years of training, knowledge, and continuous education to my work. My approach is grounded in proven, science-backed methods that promote healthy, positive learning experiences for your dog. One of my core beliefs is that every dog has the potential to succeed in their training when they are treated with respect, care, and understanding.

I also specialize in protective training and have the expertise to train dogs for a range of specialized purposes, including service dog training. I understand that each situation is unique, and as such, I take a personalized approach to service dog training. I work closely with dog owners to assess their needs and design a training program that addresses specific requirements, whether that’s mobility assistance, emotional support, or other therapeutic needs. Every training plan is customized to ensure that the dog’s temperament, skills, and abilities are suited to the tasks at hand, while also ensuring that the owner’s goals and requirements are met.

Additionally, for those in need of protective training, I provide carefully designed programs that focus on enhancing a dog’s natural protective instincts, ensuring that they respond to your needs in a controlled and professional manner. This type of training varies depending on the individual dog and the owner’s specific requirements, but always ensures a balanced, safe approach.

In such a fast-paced, vibrant state like New York, I understand that finding the right trainer can be challenging. My goal is to make the process as seamless and accessible as possible for you. I am committed to providing high-quality training that fits into your busy lifestyle, all while delivering lasting, meaningful results. I also ensure that both you and your dog enjoy the process, so training becomes an opportunity to strengthen your bond.

Mission Statement

My aim is to groom your dog with methods that strongly emphasize developing a positive relationship between a dog with its Hooman. My area of expertise is in figuring out how dogs naturally think, learn, and communicate, and can use that knowledge to teach you how to lead your dog. The next logical step after establishing this relationship is behavior modification.

Any breed, any age, and any problem can be solved using our methods. You and your dog receive specialized care, a plan tailored to your family’s needs, AND support that is ensured for the duration of your dog’s life.
