HELPING DOGS AND THEIR FAMILIES LIVE EXCEPTIONAL LIVES IN THE NORTHWEST OHIO AREA
ABOUT ME
JOSHUA OSTING
Exceptionally Obedient Dogs LLC was founded July of 2021. Josh started this company on a passion for training dogs that started in 2015 but his love of dogs has been lifelong. He realized this passion for training when he adopted two American Bullies named Odin and Freya. At 10 weeks old they were a handful; always running away or trying to climb on anyone they could, and not to mention the potty training! After realizing he needed to get ahead of them before for they got too big, Josh began working with them everyday and learning as much as he could about training. Over the weekends he would take them to a dog group for training and a play session at the local dog park. Along the way he learned how to teach his dogs what he was trying to communicate to them and the fundamentals of training. As time went on, Odin and Freya went from being out of control pups to having structure and clear communication. Josh began helping others at dog park, teaching basic obedience to new group members and supervising the play groups to ensure safe and fun socialization.
Josh is a recent graduate from Tarheel Canine School For Dog Trainers. During his time there, he had hands on experience with countless pet dogs, police dogs and Military Working Dogs during the Master Dog Trainers course. During the course he furthered his education in canine learning theory to better teach basic obedience, off leash obedience, scent detection, tracking, and protection work. He learned training techniques and theories to help reform some of the most aggressive dogs and turn them into the perfect loving family pet!
He continues learning advanced training techniques for specialized fields such as Protection Sports and other dog competitions.
Josh enjoys spending time with all different kinds of dogs. Learning their strengths, weaknesses, and personalities to not only be able to train, but to connect with these dogs helps Josh achieve the best results. Consistency, clear communication, and patients are the skills that ultimately determine his success.
LEARN TO SPEAK DOG
Communication is everything- especially to your dog! Whether a working dog or a furry family member- all dogs need the same consistency in training and clear communication to thrive in their environment.
Building the bond between dog and owner using obedience training is key.
I help dog owners "speak" their dog's language- using simple commands and reinforcement to create a stronger bond between them.
Your dog will thrive and grow with obedience training close to home, right here in the Northwest Ohio area.
SUCCESS STORIES
"We couldn't even walk past another dog on a leash with Charlie until we met Josh- he helped train us in the correct way to guide her just as much as Charlie received training."

"We were worried about bringing our new baby home and how our dog would respond to sharing space with a new member of the 'pack.' Josh helped us introduce our new addition and help our pup feel included and safe."
