The training a dog receives in its first 4-12 months can determine their behaviour for the rest of its life. For this reason, training a dog can be both exciting but also a little overwhelming, especially when you’re trying doing it for the first time. With these Dog Training Logs, you’ll have a handy tool to organize every session, track commands, and note your pup’s achievements or challenges along the way.
Whether you’re working on basic commands, advanced tricks, or correcting behavior, these printables are perfect for staying consistent and structured in your dog’s training routine.
There are multiple log variations, so you can choose the one that best suits your needs. If you’re following a detailed training plan, the weekly training grid allows you to lay out sessions across the week and keep notes on what worked or what needs more practice. For a more detailed approach, the daily session logs let you record the command, duration, and even your dog’s level of competence. This helps you notice patterns—like which commands they nail down right away and which ones need extra time.
We also have these dog training skills templates which allow you to track the progress of specific skills and commands. They probably aren’t necessary for every dog owner, but can be extremely useful in special cases such as service dog and show dog training.
