Wednesday Group Pack Walk – Oswego
June 3rd, 2026 | 5:15 PM – 6:30 PM
Starting Location: Paws on Main St, Oswego
Join Tyler the Trainer of Training That Lasts for a structured Wednesday Group Pack Walk designed to bring real-world results to your dog’s training. This is not a casual wander, it’s guided, intentional movement that helps your dog learn how to walk calmly, stay engaged, and follow direction in a social environment.
Think of it like taking a kid from practicing reading at home to reading out loud in class. The environment changes, the pressure increases, and that’s where real growth happens.
What This Walk Is About
This pack walk focuses on building reliable leash manners, improving impulse control, and strengthening your dog’s ability to stay connected to you around distractions.
Your dog will learn how to:
- Walk calmly without pulling or forging ahead
- Stay focused around other dogs and people
- Follow direction instead of reacting to every distraction
This is where training starts to “click” outside the house.
Who This Is For
Perfect for:
- Dogs that pull on leash or get distracted easily
- Dogs that need structured social exposure
- Owners who want better control and communication on walks
If your walks feel more like your dog is walking you, this is exactly where you fix that.
What to Bring
Please bring a slip lead or flat collar, high-value treats, water, and a mindset ready to work. This is hands-on, real-time coaching, so be ready to stay engaged with your dog throughout the walk.

Posted on Jenni PTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had been looking for specific training for my Golden Doodle as he would show aggression towards other dogs and it was hard to take him on a walk without him throwing a fit. Working with Tyler has been amazing as just within the first 5 minutes of his walk he went from throwing a temper tantrum to fully engaged with Tyler, waiting for the next command. This has made my life so much easier and he seems so much happier being able to connect with me and focus. He's been so exhausted from the mental stimulation that he doesn't even notice anyone walking by on the path. I stand by Tyler's training methods and will recommend him to anyone I come across that's looking for some help with their dog.Posted on Jennifer KeleghanTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. If your looking for a great trainer and long term training support, Look no further!!! About About a year and a half ago I rescued a 9 year old Bichon. I Began researching Training places to help socialize my new to me dog, I stumbled upon Training That Lasts and when I talked to them initially, they really put my mind at ease. Once I had the consultation with Tyler, he was very knowledgeable, not only on training and dog psychology, but with nutrition also, which I loved. He took his time explaining everything in detail. Petey my bichon made great progress, however I have not stayed consistent and need to come back for more training and discipline on myself. Which is why I am so excited the pack walks and training weekends have started back up this spring!!!Posted on Shannon HagerTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had our consultation with Tyler yesterday evening. His approach made me think about things differently than the other dog training programs we’ve gone through- focusing on not just their behavior, but yours as well. I understand better the type of energy that I need to bring to the table to be more effective when trying to teach my pups. We got some things to work on now and I really look forward to hopping into some weekend classes to keep improving to make both our lives happier and better!Posted on emil baroniaTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Tyler is an amazing trainer! He's very knowledgeable and passionate about his life's work and pours all of himself into each dog. The results speak for themselves. My pup has grown to be a very well behaved, disciplined, and confident dog. From the structured walks and house breaking, it was definitely worth the time and investment.Posted on Rebel TrailsTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Wow! Just finished an in home consultation with Tyler, the owner. He is very knowledgeable, personable, but direct. He brought a background on nutrition, lifestyle and human to pet connection, which led to conversations about dog/owner behavior, structure and diet. The consultation is more than just a review of how you manage your dog in your home or elsewhere, it is about how to connect with them and bring guidance for a well behaved companion. Don’t wonder. Just do it. It’s worth it!Posted on Cassie ReevesTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had a training/consultation with Tyler this week for my almost 8 week old German Shepherd puppies. I also have 2 other older dogs in the home. I was feeling a bit overwhelmed. I was in need of guidance in training the puppies and also how to have all the dogs interact in a safe and positive environment. Tyler exceeded my expectations. He taught my puppies to sit, lay, turn around all simple hand gestures and movements. I was beyond impressed. His knowledge about having a positive connection with your dog and teaching them how to have proper dog etiquette was amazing. He teaches POSITIVE reinforcement, which I believe is the only way to effectively and properly train an animal. I am truly impressed by his dedication, commitment, and knowledge not only in dog training but proper nutrition as well. Tyler is truly passionate about what he does and it shows. Thank you Tyler! I would highly recommend him to anyone seeking any assistance or insight on properly training a puppy or a dog. My experience was WONDERFUL!Posted on Ethan HardimanTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I will start from the beginning. I got a service dog breeder chosen standard poodle. We did the first meeting and expectations were set. I told him I need her walking in a heel everywhere and able to be around kids and heavily busy areas. Basic neutralization. I already had great groundwork done in the heel and basic obedience. I sent my puppy and gave pretty good reviews during the training. However I did give corrective feed back to him and one of his employees which the employee failed to relay those messages. He also failed to adjust the training. He also allowed my future SD pull of the leash except in stores (not acceptable by me or any other trainer. A heel should always be maintained especially with her future job). She was allowed to pull at people and have improper interactions as well. He also mentioned taking her to kids specialized locations during training like parks, McDonald’s play places and other locations to socialize with children. This NEVER happened not once during her training even though it was heavily requested. He only worked with her in two locations (very lazy mindset there) and never did structured walks or any outdoor work (imperative) to keep her basics maintained. I then left my original review saying that he was extremely friendly just the training education wasn’t there and I wouldn’t be recommending him as a trainer. He then THREATENED me to take the review down saying it was my fault the puppy isn’t listening or doing the heel or social work because I have kids. Well during her training you were supposed to socialize to that, but you didn’t. Taking her to Costco isn’t going to make her great. Different locations, restaurants, and parks are going to fully round her, also hey just making her walk in a heel outside and not let her run amuck until she’s inside. There was not full focus and work and just lazy training avenues. I have requested a refund or rework the program with her as the trainer didn’t complete anything I asked with consistency. DO NOT USE THIS TRAINER, ESPECIALLY FOR A SERVICE DOG. You will have a burned out non responsive dog.Posted on Kimberly CorraoTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We just had a one on one training session for our 10 week old puppy, Louis. Tyler is a gifted and passionate trainer of dogs but also of their people. My husband and I feel confident connecting with Louis and using the tools Tyler taught us to bond with our newest family member and lay the foundation for good behavior. We are looking forward to doing group training and structured walks in the future. Thanks Tyler.Posted on Chuck BorosakTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Having a in home consultation was very rewarding to both of us along with our dog. Tyler explained and demonstrated the proper way to expose our dog to the procedure along with explaining an interesting lesson about good nutritional ideas to keep our pup growing and having a long and healthy life. Lexi is adapting and favorably responding to the lessons we learned by having Tyler come over!Verified by TrustindexTrustindex verified badge is the Universal Symbol of Trust.
