The Foundation Program
STRUCTURE · COMMUNICATION · OBEDIENCE ESSENTIALS
The Foundation Program is designed to give puppies and beginner dogs the structure, communication, and obedience skills every well-behaved dog needs. Focused on on-leash obedience and everyday household manners, this program is the essential starting point for any dog beginning their training journey.
Rather than jumping into advanced training before the foundation is solid, we start with the core behaviors that create a calm, manageable, and genuinely enjoyable dog in daily life. Everything that comes after this program is built on what is built here.

The Serenity Stay Program
BEHAVIORAL MODIFICATION · REHABILITATION · LONG TERM RESULTS
The Serenity Stay is our most comprehensive, intensive, and extensive training program. Reserved for dogs with serious behavioral concerns that require more than obedience. It is designed specifically for dogs whose challenges run deeper than commands can address on their own.
Behavioral modification is not a quick process and it should never be treated as one. Every dog in this program receives a fully individualized training plan built around their specific history, triggers, and needs. We begin in quieter, controlled environments and progressively work back toward community integration — safely, carefully, and without cutting corners.
The longer a behavioral concern is left unaddressed, the more deeply it becomes embedded. If your dog is dealing with any of the challenges below, the time to act is now and not after another trainer has tried and returned them.
THIS PROGRAM IS BEST SUITED FOR
WHAT IS INCLUDED
Full Behavioral Assessment
Your dog is assessed independently before any training begins. Every plan is built from scratch around that individual dog with their history, their triggers, and their needs in mind.
Basic to Advanced Obedience
Come, Sit, Down, Stay, Place, Leave It, Quiet, Off, Heel, Look, Walk Nice, Wait, Door Manners, Leash Manners, Car Manners, High Distraction Training.
Training Equipment
All gear and tools suited to your dog are provided, including collars, leashes, muzzles or any other specific tools that may be required for your dogs success at home.
Unlimited Lifetime Follow-Up Support
Follow-up access by phone, email, and additional lessons as needed for the entire life of your dog. Behavioral modification requires long-term commitment and we honor that.
Lifetime Group Class Access
Upon graduation, unlimited access to our group follow-up classes and pack walks as an invaluable ongoing resource for dogs working through behavioral rehabilitation.
Refresher Boarding Privilege
Graduates unlock refresher boarding at a discounted rate, ensuring that behavioral progress is maintained and supported long after the formal program ends.
Residential Behavioral Modification
The Serenity Stay Program is conducted exclusively as a board and train. There are no private lesson options for our behavioral modification. This is not a limitation, it is a decision made entirely in the best interest of your dog and our long standing success in this structure.
Our data reflects a 95% improved success rate with board and train over private lessons for dogs in behavioral modification. Your dog's outcome is the priority, and this format gives them the best possible chance at a real, lasting result.
Your dog lives with us inside our home for the full duration. No stressful kennels, no outdoor runs. Full home integration with our family, our resident pack, and everything that comes with a real household environment. Behavioral modification is serious work. Your dog deserves to do that work somewhere they feel safe.
WHAT YOUR DOG RECEIVES EACH DAY
- 1 to 3 formal training sessions daily, Monday through Friday, weekends vary
(generally your pups help us with our lessons on the weekends)
- 1 to 3 walks in the neighborhood each day
- 8 to 15 potty breaks and playtime sessions daily, alone and with other dogs
- Full home access. Living, lounging, yard time, and couch access if permitted
- Weekly personal phone updates for you every Saturday
- Photo and video updates uploaded online almost daily at no additional cost
- 3 to 6 in-person lessons with your dog at weeks 6, 12, graduation, and additional as needed throughout without limits.
- Exit groom upon graduation ( bath, blow dry, nails, and ears )
Please approach cheaper or shorter alternatives with caution. Behavioral modification done incorrectly does not just fail, it makes the problem harder to address afterward and can result in serious danger, and in some cases euthanasia. Investing correctly in your dog's future now has consistently saved families thousands of dollars and years of difficulty in the long run.
We have re-trained many dogs whose first experience with another trainer made things worse, not better.
We do have another local trusted Dog Trainer we reffer others to as well, but this does not mean they are cheaper.
