The 12th annual Dog Behavior Conference provides ultimate dog training knowledge opportunities for dog lovers around the world.
For the twelfth consecutive year, the Victoria Stilwell Academy’s online Dog Behavior Conference will offer dog trainers, guardians, pet professionals and other behavior enthusiasts a chance to connect virtually and share knowledge, insights and inspiration with dog lovers around the world.
From April 4-6, 2025, a glittering lineup of influential animal behavior thought leaders will connect with a huge audience uniquely dedicated to improving the lives of pet dogs and the people who love them. The conference will feature 12 presentations, live Q&A events with speakers, and other interactive elements which allow audience members to network, interact, and inspire one another.
“The Dog Behavior Conference is hands-down my favorite event of the year,” said VSA founder and president Victoria Stilwell. “Every year I think it can’t be better than before, and yet without fail, every year raises the bar for dog training and behavior education and inspiration. Part of what makes it so unique is the true feeling of community and togetherness among dog people who are so often divided by the factions and drama within the dog training community. The DBC offers a safe space for like-minded people committed to making the world a better place for dogs and their guardians.”
In a world overrun by a sudden proliferation of free and low-cost online events often promoting gimmicky or sales-driven, time-sensitive membership models, the Dog Behavior Conference stands out for its commitment to curating a list of speakers eager to share unique and powerfully inspiring material in an interactive, supportive environment. Hosted by Victoria Stilwell, the DBC has become known in the dog world as a can’t-miss event unique in its ability to re-engage and ignite passion among those leading the way as advocates in the pet industry.
“This year’s crop of DBC presenters has been carefully chosen to offer a powerful mix of hands-on skills, scientific advances in the field of animal behavior, and accessible take-home knowledge designed to help provide real-world results,” stated Stilwell.
The DBC’s speaker list includes Carmaleta Aufderheide, Amber Batson, Irith Bloom, Tom Candy, Sarah Fisher, Andrew Hale, Sindhoor Pangal, Jo Pay, Julia Robertson, Victoria Stilwell, Zazie Todd, and Niki Tudge.
The DBC is hosted by the Victoria Stilwell Academy for Dog Training & Behavior, a leading educational institution for the pet industry, and registration is now open to the public.
