From ruff to ready with Woof To Wow Dog Training
Woof To Wow is an ongoing dog school that helps dogs become capable companions, ready to handle everyday life with confidence and good manners. Our students learn through positive reinforcement training, guided play, and enrichment, with skills you can keep building at home. We serve families across Central Oregon and are centrally located between Bend, Tumalo, Redmond, and Sisters.
New students start between nine weeks and six months old, with age-appropriate vaccinations from a licensed veterinarian and a clean bill of health, and can continue attending as they grow. We ask for at least one school day each week, with exceptions for illness, travel, spay/neuter recovery, Honor Roll status, and other circumstances. Choose different days each week or attend more often—more school days help puppies learn faster.

Since joining Woof to Wow in 2023, I’ve loved helping create fun, enriching experiences for our dogs and their families. As Project Manager, I help coordinate projects, plan special events, and support our team in providing a safe, engaging environment where every dog can thrive. My favorite part of the job is celebrating each dog’s unique personality and making every day a little more pawsome!

Tails of success
“We love Desiree! She has a love and patience for pups that is simply inspiring. The world of fur babies needs more pet health and safety advocates like her. When our Gimli is with her, I know he is safe...and probably having the time of his life too!”
— Katie B.
“Woof-to-Wow is our go-to trainer for both our labradors. Moose, our puppy, loves going to daycare to get socialization and burn his puppy energy. We always trust that he is in good hands.”
— Alyssa F.
Desiree is very courteous and knowledgeable; and there is always an obvious effort to make my best friend as happy as possible. Some of the adventures/hikes my pet has experienced while in her care are more than enough to make me jealous and inspired. She also offers training and tips to those who want it! Overall an excellent choice for any occasion!
