Dog Training

“Teaching leadership and building relationships one trained owner at a time.”

Hanover Humane is not currently offering any training sessions.

HOWEVER, we routinely refer Sandy Yamanashi, pet training instructor, and get positive feedback from people who have taken her training classes.  Sandy offers obedience training (puppy, beginner, intermediate, and advanced classes) as well as CGC and therapy dog training.

Sandy Yamanashi’s home store is the Mechanicsville PetSmart (Store #1328), but she frequently trains as needed at the Petsmart at Virginia Center Commons as well as the Petsmart  on Laburnum Avenue/Williamsburg Road.

Contact Sandy at by calling 804-779-3053 (personal) or 804-730-7545 (PetSmart)

Sandy offers classroom instruction as well as one-on-one training.
