With over 35 years of experience, Will Bangura—the founder and lead behaviorist—has dedicated his career to mastering the art and science of dog behavior.

Our approach at Phoenix Dog Training is rooted in science-based, positive reinforcement methods, ensuring that every dog receives the most humane, effective, and lasting training available. We specialize in addressing severe behavioral issues such as aggression, anxiety, and phobias, offering customized training programs that are tailored to the unique needs of each dog and their family.
Unlike many other dog trainers in Phoenix, who may rely on outdated, punishment-based methods, we adhere strictly to evidence-based practices that prioritize your dog’s emotional and physical well-being. This commitment to ethical training is reflected in our refusal to use aversive tools like shock collars or prong collars. Instead, we focus on building trust and reinforcing positive behaviors, which leads to permanent, positive changes in your dog’s behavior.
When you choose Phoenix Dog Training, you’re not just hiring a trainer—you’re partnering with a leading expert who is committed to delivering life-changing results. Will Bangura’s extensive certifications, including CBCC-KA (Certified Behavior Consultant Canine-Knowledge Assessed) and CPDT-KA (Certified Professional Dog Trainer-Knowledge Assessed), are testaments to his deep knowledge and dedication to the field. These prestigious credentials, held by only a small percentage of professionals worldwide, ensure that your dog is in the hands of a true expert.
Furthermore, Will’s commitment to continuing education means that he stays at the forefront of the latest research and techniques in dog behavior. This ensures that your dog benefits from the most current and effective training methods available.
At Phoenix Dog Training, we also understand that quality matters more than quantity. That’s why we take on only a select number of clients at a time, ensuring that each dog receives the personalized attention they deserve. We are not a high-volume business focused on profit; we are dedicated to achieving the best possible outcomes for you and your dog.
Choosing Phoenix Dog Training means choosing the best for your dog—because they deserve nothing less.
