Our Services

Training that changes how life feels with your dog

We work with families who want more than basic obedience—they want calm, confidence, and a stronger, more rewarding relationship with their dog. Our approach is hands-on, highly customized, and designed for real life.

Private, In-Depth Training

Overview:
Our private training is for owners who want behavior that can be relied on in the moments that matter most. This isn’t about superficial band aids—it’s about real progress that transforms daily life.

Who this is for:

  • Dogs who are overly excitable, reactive, anxious, fearful or difficult to manage

  • Dogs who’s behavior is creating stress, embarrassment, or limitation for their owners

  • Families frustrated that traditional obedience hasn’t solved their challenges

  • Owners committed to building understanding and connection with their dog

What to expect:

  • Thorough assessment of your dog’s behavior and triggers

  • Personalized, step-by-step plan for your household and lifestyle

  • Hands-on coaching for owners to lead with clarity and confidence

  • Ongoing support to maintain progress outside sessions

Puppy & Early Development

Overview:
Our puppy development work is designed for owners who want to build strong foundations early—calm routines, thoughtful socialization, and skills that hold up as life gets busier.

Who this is for:

  • Puppies who benefit from consistent structure and guidance

  • Families who want to get things right from the beginning

  • Owners looking for a deeper start than classes or drop-in training can provide

Format:

This program is a short-term, immersive stay where your puppy lives with us for a defined period of time. This allows us to establish routines, build skills, and guide early development with consistency that can be difficult to achieve through sessions alone.

What to expect:

  • Daily, intentional training woven into real life

  • Thoughtful exposure and social development

  • A smooth transition back home with clear guidance for owners

Behavior Rehabilitation

Overview:
For dogs with more complex behavioral challenges, meaningful progress often requires depth, consistency, and a carefully managed environment.

Who this is for:

  • Dogs struggling with fear, reactivity, or aggression

  • Owners committed to long-term change, not temporary compliance

  • Situations where safety, stability, and clarity are essential

Format:

This work is offered as a time-limited residential training experience. Living with us allows for focused intervention, controlled exposure, and day-to-day guidance that supports lasting behavioral change.

What to expect:

  • Thorough behavioral assessment

  • Structured, progressive work tailored to your dog

  • Ongoing communication and a clear transition plan for returning home

Why Our Work Is Different

  • Depth over speed: We move at a pace that ensures progress lasts.

  • Customized for your life: Every plan fits your household, lifestyle, and your dog’s unique personality.

  • Hands-on, partnership-based coaching: Owners learn to lead with confidence, creating a calmer, more connected life.

  • Limited client load: We only take as many cases as we can fully support, ensuring attention and accountability.

Continuing Care for Established Clients

After completing one of our training programs, clients are welcome to schedule short-term stays with us as needed. These visits allow us to reinforce existing skills, support transitions, and maintain consistency—while providing a familiar, structured environment for your dog.

This option is available exclusively to dogs we’ve already worked with and is not offered as a standalone boarding service.

Let's Begin

"I have worked with animals all my life and trained dogs before, but this one was beyond my ability. Francisco was so professional in how he worked with the dog and explaining where I messed up. He knows what he is doing—you can see that in a very short time— he makes sure you as the person knows what to do…”
