Our focus is to help dogs and owners build calm, confident partnerships

through clear communication and structured training. Whether you're dealing with

reactivity, leash pulling, or just want better manners, our personalized programs are

designed to meet your dog where they are - and bring out their best!

​

Our Mission:

To create  balanced dogs and empowered owners. We believe training

should feel natural, rewarding, and built on mutual trust - not frustration or confusion.

Every session focuses on mindset, structure, and real-life success. ​

​

Private Training 

​

Private lessons are designed for owners who want to be actively involved in their dogs 

training every step of the way. You will be able to learn the skills, timing, and 

communication needed to create lasting results (and relationship) with your dog. Every 

lesson we coach you on is customized to your individual goals, your dogs personality,

and your lifestyle.

​

Our approach focuses on teaching both ends of the leash. Throughout your lessons you

will gain a clear understanding of how dogs learn, how to communicate effectively,

and how to build confidence through fair, consistent training. 

 

Between lessons you will receive homework and step-by-step guidance to help you make steady progress at home.  ​​​​

Private lessons are ideal for:

• Puppy foundations and socialization

• Basic and advanced obedience

• Leash manners and public manners

• Recall and off-leash training

• Confidence building

• Reactivity and fear related behaviors

• Impulse control and household manners

• Basic sport dog foundations

​

We train at your home and out and about in dog friendly spaces,

once your dog is ready for that step.

Board and Train​

We run our board and trains a bit differently then industry standard and prefer to run them a as a jump start to training rather then a full training. We focus on what is needed to set your dog best up for success rather then traditional obedience skills - then we move your dog and you into private lessons so everyone is growing and learning together. 

• • Ideal for those wanting professional training for their dog - but would prefer the foundational building blocks be done ahead of time.​
