About Us

Our Mission:

To improve the lives of dogs and their owners by ensuring consistent access to high-quality training, leveraging technology to connect families with skilled trainers, while supporting and empowering training professionals.

Our Methodology

WSD historically utilized a Relationship Based Methodology, focusing on kind techniques designed to make your dog comfortable with the learning process. It's similar to LIMA (Least Invasive, Minimally Aversive). 

Our trainers each come with their own experience and expertise - exact methods will reflect their individual style. We expect our trainers to maintain a focus on Ethics, Integrity, and Efficacy; and view this diversity as one of our greatest strengths.

About We Speak Dog

We Speak Dog was founded in 2020 by Chris & Alyssa, a dog-training-and-performing-duo-couple living in Indianapolis. 

We Speak Dog not only worked with owners, but also with animal shelters, rescues, and local community organizations. Consulting on severe aggression cases, evaluating homeless dogs in need, and providing board & train services to over 70 dogs per year throughout Central Indiana.

After the pandemic, we began performing with our personal dogs for Stunt Dog Productions, providing family friendly entertainment and wowing audiences with our dogs' tricks and skills.

In the winter months, we often have the opportunity to perform for NFL, NBA, and NCAA halftime shows. 

Over the years, we built a strong network of fellow trainers and other pet professionals, with a focus on helping others along our journey and developing community. We have brought a few of those connections along with us on this venture, in fact.


In 2024, we underwent a relocation and a re-evaluation of our service offerings. In January 2025, Chris is taking over Operations and, leveraging his background in technology, we're launching our Online "Virtual" Dog Training platform.
