Personal Experience

We have not only had experience with client's dogs, but our own. From a young age our main trainer located in Houston, TX,  had a passion for dog training. Soon teaching sit and stay to childhood pets turned into a task trained Service dog of her very own for her disability.  Since the retirement of Service dog Lady, shes been on a mission to help others achieve their training dreams.

Commonly Asked Questions!

What methods of training do you use?

We use balanced reinforcement techniques to train dogs effectively and compassionately. Executing corrections via leash when absolutely needed, and lots of treats and praise for good behavior! We do not use shock  or choke collars, however Vibrating only E Collars and prong collars can sometimes be reccomended to aid your dogs focus on the handler during intense distractions or exercises. The main tools of preference are treats, and love!

What types of training are offered?

We offer obedience training to teach dogs a variety of skills. Such as potty training, proper walking on the leash, sit, stay, and even more advanced obedience like off leash heeling and impressive tricks! If your dog is reactive, fearful, we got your back too.  We also love to train dogs to preform sports such as Agility, Dock diving, Show Dog etiquette, and others! If you are in need of a Service animal for a disability, we specialize in that too! We offer almost any types of training other than protection, and board and trains.

Do you offer puppy training classes?

Yes, we have specialized classes to help puppies learn basic manners and socialization, to prepare your pup for the big world! They key to a well behaved dog is how you train them when they're small. A puppy biting your hands may be cute, but a big grown dog jumping and scratching on your visitors will not be! We want to make sure your puppy is ready for loud motorcyles, pets from strangers, other animals, and most importantly, POOING OUTSIDE!

Are private training sessions available? Why are singular sessions not availible?

Yes, we offer one-on-one sessions tailored to address specific behavior issues and training goals. This will start with a 25$ Consultation about you and your dogs specific needs,  so we can assure the most affective training possible! After that, choose a training plan and get ready for your dog to transform!

We do NOT do individual sessions. Training a dog no matter how well behaved takes time, effort, and many sessions and at home application.

Do you provide training for aggressive dogs?

Yes, we have experience working with aggressive behavior and offer specialized training to address those issues.  Every dog is very different, and there can be many reasons a dog acts aggressively, but I assure you we will get to the bottom of it! However, if the dog is a bite risk we do ask that the owner comply to the dog wearing a muzzle to the session to keep our trainers safe.  If your dog will not wear one, there are methods to make it an enjoyable experience using treats!
