For dogs with big behaviors, and families who won’t give up.
If the reactivity, fear, or aggression feels unfixable, we want you to know it’s not.
Rebuild trust. Create structure. Enjoy life with your dog again.
You’ve tried everything. The reward systems, the group classes, the boot camps.
And your dog is still threatening the peace you once had in your home, and making outdoors feel off-limits.
That doesn’t mean your dog is broken. It just means you need a different approach.
Our program is different by design: slower, deeper, and built for real life.
Your dog trains in a home setting with experienced trainers who each work with just a few dogs at a time.
This allows for the structure, care, and leadership each dog needs to truly thrive.
Your trainer will address all problem behaviors and build essential skills, from crate and leash training to meal time etiquette.
Our Board & Train Programs provide:
Whether you’re here for court-ordered training or you just want to be able to have guests over again, you’re in the right place. A calm, confident dog is closer than you think.
Ever wonder why quick-turn programs don’t work? It’s because they use forced compliance, creating unreliable behaviors that often lead to regression.
Our programs are different: we build trust, clarity and real-world readiness at a pace that respects your dog’s needs.
We use a balanced, relationship-first approach, identifying the right motivators for your dog and creating lasting behavior change through calm structure.
