Experienced trainers

Our trainers have years of diverse experience in the dog world. Jared Warren has 10+ years of experience, beginning his career as a special operations K9 handler in the military. He then expanded his knowledge into pet dogs! For more information about our trainers; Jared and Olivia see our about page.

Owner Integration

While our board and train option is full service we believe it is just as, if not more important to train the owners. We incorporate owners with a lesson at time of pick up as well as a week after you’ve taken your pup home to ensure a seamless transition home. We also include additional lessons post formal training to encourage continuance of training.

Real world & In home application

With this being a small veteran owned business we incorporate your dog into our families to make the transition back home seamless. We also incorporate practical application out in public and get your dogs working in highly stimulating environments.

Continued investment

We are here to assist in the forward progression and success in your dog, which is why we provide additional lessons and touch points post formal training. We are always willing and able to help you to better your bond with your dog for a more harmonious life!

Drop-ins

We understand being away from your pup is hard; which is why we allow you to visit during the course of training. We pride ourselves on keeping you connected throughout training via video and photo updates and drop-ins.

Forever Clients

If you decide to train with us in any facet, you earn the ability to board your dog with us on a space available basis. Included in this, is refresher training for your dog! You also gain a personal relationship with our trainers to help you with any issues you experience along the way.
