Our training is a collaborative process designed to give you the tools, confidence, and real-world skills needed to support your dog long after the sessions end.
Obedience Training
Our private obedience dog training sessions focus on building trust, communication, and engagement through essential skills like sit, down, place, come, and heel—while also addressing mild behavior issues for a calm, engaged dog.
Leash Training
Our Leash Walking Program helps dogs that pull, freeze, refuse to walk, or show mild reactivity. We teach calm, focused leash manners for a safer, more enjoyable walk—every time.
Puppy Training
Start your puppy off right with expert puppy training in San Diego! Our program builds trust, communication, and good behavior through obedience, leash training, potty training, and more!
Behavior Modification
Our private Behavior Modification Dog Training Program is designed for dogs with anxiety, reactivity, and other challenging behaviors. We focus on your dog’s state of mind and the root cause to create lasting change and a more balanced, calm companion.
Off-Leash Training
Our off-leash dog training sessions build reliable communication and engagement—giving you and your dog the freedom and confidence to enjoy life without the leash.
Intensive Training
Some San Diego dogs and owners need more than a weekly session! One-on-One Intensive is a collaborative program that allows us to address your needs and goals with daily training sessions to hone your dog training skills while creating sustainable change.
