Helping dogs — and their humans — master the social skills that make a Go Anywhere Dog®. Science-based. Play-driven. Boundaries without trauma®.
Jody Karow is the founder and lead trainer at Go Anywhere Dog® in Eden Prairie, serving families across the Minneapolis metro. With 20+ years of hands-on experience, Jody’s special sauce is social skills—the confidence, play etiquette, and emotional regulation that turn a good puppy into a Go Anywhere Dog®. Her method blends behavioral science with joyful practice: trust first, skills second, obedience that lasts.
Her work sits at the intersection of behavioral science, emotional intelligence, and real-world practice, helping families raise calm, joyful dogs who can truly go anywhere with them. Jody’s guiding principle is simple and unwavering: build trust before obedience. Because the best-behaved dogs aren’t managed—they’re connected.
When she’s not teaching puppies the art of polite play, Jody mentors fellow trainers, writes about dog-human relationships, and explores the trails around the Minneapolis metro with her own Go Anywhere Dogs by her side.
