When it comes to getting or having a dog one things for sure, you need to train it. But that isn’t as easy as it sounds and it can really put a strain on things and potentially ruin a beautiful friendship. That’s why these dog training affiliate programs are such a good idea because so many people need trainers.
Dogs are dear to my heart, we used to have 2 English Springer Spaniels and they would pull like a train when on a lead and I never got round to training that out of them, I wish I had of.
When we finally get another dog that’s definitely something I’m going to do.
According to Accurize the market size by 2025 is estimated to have grown to over $41 million, that’s a massive market and one that needs investigating.
Whether it’s a Cockapoo or a labradoodle they’re all going to need training so let’s take a look at the best ones I could find.

Good Life Ultimate Bark Control
Good Life Ultimate Bark Control are a small team from diverse backgrounds but are united by their love of animals. Founded in 2002 it took a while to finally arrive at a bark control device that was painless and humane, thus their #1 product, the Dog Silencer was born.
It began it’s life in a very different form than todays model, but still had the same goal, to make sure dogs where in no way harmed by the device.
It works by detecting when a dog barks then sends out a high pitched tone that only dogs can hear. They find this noise annoying and quickly learn that if they don’t bark they won’t hear the noise.
Within a few short weeks the dog is trained and no more disruptive barking.
As well as the Dog Silencer unit they also offer a Barkwise no shock collar which allows for a more targeted application.
- Commission is set at 10% with higher commission for video content

What Now?
So there you have 6 of the best dog training affiliate programs that I could find, what’s you’re favourite? I’m sure you can find something here that you will want to offer to your audience.
My personal preference would be the bark control device, this is an area where a lot of people would benefit from knowing about such a device especially as there is no shock or pain involved that would be an absolute no-no.
Whatever one you choose there’s not a lot of point joining these affiliate programs if you’re not getting traffic to your links, no traffic = no clicks = no money!
When it comes to that side of things I would highly recommend the affiliate training I used to get my websites making a solid income that I enjoy today.
