Supernova Dog Training

Our Dog Training Services

  • Hands-on—1-on-1 coaching at-home.

    In-home trainings are tailored to you and your dog in a controlled environment to build the essential foundations of obedience and manners that we can then expand into public settings where distractions are inevitable and unpredictable.

    In-home training is foundational for all dog owners as it’s where your dog spends the most time!

    Each session is built around your goals, with custom homework and detailed follow-ups to keep progress on track.

    ✅Personalized coaching in a calm, focused setting where we control for distractions and triggers.

    ✅Tailored to you and your dog’s unique needs.

    ✅Homework + support for lasting results.

  • We understand the hesitation that can come with inviting someone into your home. That’s why our Private Training is designed to feel comfortable, supportive, and effective from the start.

    You’ll receive expert, one-on-one coaching where we will collaboratively train your dog. Sessions can take place in your home, at a mutually agreed-upon location, or a combination of both. Whichever you are most comfortable with!

    Who This Is For

    • Owners looking for clear guidance on basic obedience and structure (great for single sessions)

    • Dogs struggling with leash pulling, reactivity, or barking at people or other dogs (packages recommended)

    Why Choose Private Lessons

    • One-on-one attention tailored to your goals and lifestyle

    • Real-time feedback and hands-on coaching

    • Sessions adapt as your dog progresses—no cookie-cutter plans

  • Virtual sessions are perfect for dog owners who already have a basic understanding of training and want support from a professional to fine-tune their approach, troubleshoot specific issues, or stay consistent with a training plan.

    Whether you're building structure at home, navigating mild behavior concerns, or just need a second set of expert eyes, virtual coaching gives you direct access to customized advice without the need for in-person visits.

    Best For:

    • Owners who are comfortable working independently with guidance

    • Dogs who need help with structure, obedience, or routine-based behavior

    • Getting a trainer’s perspective on problem-solving or refining existing skills

    • Those outside our in-home service area or preferring remote support

Hi! I’m Raul— Dog Trainer, Canine Advocate, and Nature Enthusiast.

I provide results-driven dog training in San Jose and surrounding communities, designed to support you and your dog through real-life situations—whether it’s creating a calmer home, enjoying peaceful walks in your neighborhood, or exploring the redwood trails of California.

I specialize in strengthening the bond between dogs and their owners by building clear communication, mutual trust, and lasting structure. My balanced training approach helps dogs and their humans thrive together—at home and beyond.

From leash pulling, barking at people and dogs, to recall and basic obedience, I focus on practical dog training solutions that create lasting change.

Every dog is capable of learning—sometimes it just takes the right approach. My personalized programs are designed to meet you and your dog exactly where you are, with zero judgment and full support.

Let’s build a confident, connected partnership—so you and your dog can enjoy everything from quiet evenings at home to stress-free adventures in nature.

Empowering You AND Your Dog to Walk Life’s Path Together Confidently

I’ve been there, frustrated, tired, feeling like I am failing my dogs, unable to help them past their behavioral issues.

I’m on the other side here to tell you it can get better. With my help, I can show you a calmer side to owning a dog.

From Nova to Supernova

Nova isn’t just my dog—she’s the reason Supernova Dog Training exists.

Training her through challenges like leash pulling, barking at people, barking at dogs, anxiety, jumping, and excessive barking sparked a passion that changed everything.

With the right tools, consitency, lots of learning and training, we transformed chaos into calm— stenghtening our communication and building a bond stronger than I ever imagined.

Supernova Dog Training was born from that journey, and it’s now my mission to help other dog owners across the South Bay Area experience that same transformation.

My mission

  • Build confidence in you and your dog with balanced, effective training.

  • Establish clear communication through structure, boundaries, and mutual respect.

  • Turn problem behaviors into calm obedience.

  • Empower San Jose and South Bay dog owners with tools for lasting trust and freedom.

  • Prevent shelter surrenders and reduce shelter populations by teaching dog owners real-life training skills to improve quality of life for both owners and their furry companions.

  • Make training fun, rewarding, and a path to a stronger bond with your dog.

Let’s work together to create a stronger bond between you and your dog.
