About & approach

Experienced, personal guidance for you and your dog, wherever you are.

Wolfwoods K-9 Academy works with handlers across the country to train their own dogs toward service dog work. Every session is one-on-one, so the training plan follows your dog's pace and your day-to-day needs rather than a group curriculum.

Because the core of the program is virtual, you train in the places your dog actually lives and works: your home, your neighborhood, and your routine. Both programs end with an in-person session with Jordyn, who travels to you anywhere in the U.S.

How virtual sessions work

Real-time coaching, right where your dog lives.

  1. Set up your space

    Find an area where your trainer can see you and your dog on camera. A phone, tablet, or laptop works.

  2. Train live, one-on-one

    Your trainer watches in real time, coaches your timing and handling, and adjusts the plan as your dog progresses.

  3. Practice between sessions

    You leave each session with clear next steps to practice in your daily routine until you meet again.

  4. Build toward the finale

    Virtual sessions prepare you and your dog for the in-person session that ends your program. Jordyn travels to you anywhere in the U.S. to complete it.

Session frequency: in the 6-month program, you meet with your trainer for one private, one-on-one virtual session each week, with unlimited text and email support and video review and feedback between sessions.

How sessions work online: sessions are held by video call on Google Meet or Zoom, both free for you to join on a phone, tablet, or computer. There's nothing to buy, and nothing to install beyond the free app. Between sessions, you'll send short homework videos for Jordyn to review, and she can share private demo videos with you.

Who it's for

For handlers who want to train their own dog.

Wolfwoods is for people who want to train their own dog to become their service dog, with personal, one-on-one guidance instead of doing it alone.

Dog already has obedience training? The 6-month program is built for you. Starting with a puppy? The 18-month program takes your dog from puppy through adulthood.

  • You'd like to train your own dog rather than acquire an already-trained one.
  • You prefer one-on-one attention over group classes.
  • You want flexible, virtual training from home, anywhere in the United States.
  • For the 6-month program: your dog already has prior obedience training (required), and you can commit to six months of weekly sessions ending with a final in-person evaluation (Jordyn travels to you).
  • For the 18-month program: you have a puppy and want guidance from puppyhood through adulthood, ending with an in-person session with Jordyn (she travels to you).
[Placeholder: eligibility requirements] For each program: dog age, breed/size, temperament, and health requirements; what level of "prior obedience training" qualifies for the 6-month program; handler requirements; any evaluation before acceptance.

Service dog rules and handler/dog requirements vary by location and situation. We encourage you to review the requirements that apply to you.

Client stories

What handlers say

Casper is my chocolate Lab, and we live in Jackson Hole, Wyoming. He's currently in Jordyn's service dog training program, and I couldn't be happier with how it's going. Jordyn coaches our whole family, so everyone who handles Casper is on the same page.
