what is it?
A publication entirely devoted to the business and marketing side of being a dog professional—the only one of its kind.

It is published four times a year in PDF format and is read by dog trainers, walkers, daycare operators, boarders, and sitters.

what you get
The accumulated expertise of dogTEC’s team of business and marketing consultants.
Step-by-step advice on better business practices, niche marketing, and creative problem-solving.
In-depth articles. Case studies. Research. Q&A.

Think of it as consulting in print.

what, when, & how much
14-16 pages.
4 issues per year.
PDF format.

(why PDF?)
Because paper, ink, and postage drive up prices. Most specialist business publications charge $160-$300 / year to cover those costs. With us, you only pay for the expertise.
