Turn Your Passion for Dogs Into a Career
Join a family-owned in-home dog training franchise focused on transforming behavior and building lasting bonds between dogs and their owners.

Brand overview
Paw & Order Dog Training was founded by Elissa Weimer in 2013 after she left a path toward becoming an FBI agent, driven by her love for dogs following a heartfelt experience with a rescue German Shepherd in college. After rebranding in 2016, demand surged, and by 2020 Elissa and her husband Steve officially launched the franchise opportunity. The brand has grown organically by bringing on trusted people, many with existing connections to Paw & Order. Franchisees operate in-home dog training businesses within defined geographic territories, working with all breeds and sizes to achieve lasting good behavior.
