The first step for scheduling any service is a Consultation to identify your dog’s specific needs and create a personalized plan. We use balanced training methods in our programs. For more details about our training style, methods, or background, please review the MEET THE TEAM page and FAQ page.
Each service is detailed below. To schedule a Consultation, complete the contact form at the bottom of this page. Please note, some services are only offered to existing clients. We look forward to meeting you soon!
Consultation
New clients start here! All services require a Consultation to ensure your dog will be a great fit for our pack and/or training program!
During this 1-hour session, we will:
-
Evaluate leash and social skills, home structure and overall understanding of boundaries, rules and limitations.
-
Explain how to effectively communicate with your dog in a way they’ll understand.
-
Demonstrate how to clearly and fairly set expectations (and follow through!)
-
Review our policies for our programs.
-
Create a personalized training plan and discuss how to move forward based on your dog’s individual needs.
After the consultation, you’re able to join our community which includes ongoing support and guidance between training sessions, training camp days and first dibs on upcoming classes and events!

Board and Train
​
Minimum required Board and Train duration is 3 weeks/21 days.
The service includes:​
-
Daily videos to show you what your dog is working on with us and how you can follow through once theyre home.
-
Weekly mid stay training sessions to ensure you are learning alongside your dog. These sessions can be virtual or in person depending on your location.
-
1 go home session and 1 virtual follow up session a week later.
-
Unlimited access to our once monthly B&T alumni support classes for continued assistance.
We will only be offering this program to dogs who do not show signs of aggression towards other dogs or to humans. If you are struggling with those behaviors, we recommend our training session or day train options as a better fit for you and your dog to work through those behaviors side by side.
This program is a great fit for you and your dog if you have a dog who:
-
Is a puppy with all puppy shots completed looking to get a great start at life.
-
Struggles with reactivity, overexcitement, lack of impulse control.
-
Needs a tune up on obedience, leash skills, off leash skills.
-
Is over 6 month old and ready to start ecollar training for off leash freedom, etc.
-
Is fearful or shut down and needs a confidence boost and proper socialization to come out of their shell.
​
If you dont see your needs listed here, reach out and were happy to find a program that will work for you and your pup!

Home School or Field Trip
This is like a combo between a day train and a private training session, at a lower price point.
​
Home School: We come to your home! We created this program to take some of the responsibility off of your shoulders as far as training the basics of in home manners, patterns, and obedience! For example, door manners, stopping fence fighting, place with distractions, stopping counter surfing, reactivity in your neighborhood, etc. After all, most issues that our clients are struggling to work through are created and practiced in the home or immediate neighborhood/ surrounding areas most often. So, why not hire a trainer to come tackle those issues at the source?
​
Field Trip: Does your dog need work on focusing in public, settling down in new environments, or just generally needs more exposure and socialization than youre able to give them? Do you have specific training goals out in public that we can help you accomplish? If yes, then Field trips are a great option for you.
​
This service includes:
-
A 60 minute in home/neighborhood "home school" session or a 6o minute "field trip" outing to a local location.
-
We come to you! Mileage included if youre in SLO or the 5 cities. You do not need to be home for this service. We will pick up and drop off, and update you along the way!
-
Video demonstrations to show what we worked on and how you can practice while were not there.
