Dog Care
Board & Train: When schedules are hectic or travel is unavoidable, our Board & Train program offers a seamless solution. Your dog stays in our accredited kennel under the watchful eye of certified handlers, receiving consistent, low‑stress training sessions that maintain momentum. The result is a confident, well‑adjusted dog ready to perform at home or on the job.
Private Lessons: For owners who wish to be hands‑on, our Private Lessons provide personalized instruction tailored to both dog and trainer. Each 60‑minute session is packed with skill development, behavioral cues, and real‑time feedback, ensuring rapid progress and a stronger bond between you and your pet.
Behavior Modification: Our Behavior Modification service tackles even the most challenging issues—aggression, anxiety, or compulsive behaviors—using evidence‑based techniques that respect a dog’s natural instincts. We guide owners through a step‑by‑step plan that transforms fearful or reactive dogs into calm, confident companions.
Day Training: Ideal for local clients, Day Training offers daily drop‑off and pickup sessions that fit into a busy schedule. Dogs benefit from a structured routine and immediate reinforcement, while owners gain flexibility without compromising training quality.
Search & Rescue Tracking: Our seasoned trainers bring over 20 years of SAR experience to specialized Search & Rescue Tracking programs. We train dogs to detect human scent, navigate varied terrain, and work seamlessly with handlers, making them invaluable assets for government agencies and volunteer teams alike.
K9 Sport: Whether your dog is a novice or a seasoned competitor, our K9 Sport program covers PSA disciplines, agility, and obedience competitions. We emphasize proper technique, mental focus, and fun, ensuring athletes achieve peak performance while enjoying the sport.
Personal Protection: For individuals or families seeking maximum security, our Personal Protection training equips dogs with advanced defensive skills. Handlers learn to interpret subtle cues and maintain control, creating a reliable guardian that protects property and people alike.
