Welcome Mack to Basic Obedience Board & Train! 🐾

Mack is a 1.5-year-old Cocker Spaniel with the cutest face and plenty of personality. He is here to build a stronger obedience foundation, improve manners, sharpen leash skills, and learn how to make better choices with more consistency.

We are excited to get to work with this sweet boy and help him become a more polished, confident companion!

Ready for your dog to build better manners and reliable obedience? Message us today or visit www.canesportivo.com to schedule your free phone consultation.

Which side are you? 😂

At Cane Sportivo, we don’t care which marketing team wins—as long as your dog ends up with better manners, more freedom, and a stronger relationship with you.

Be honest… which marketing team wrote this better? 👀

Rare Immediate Board & Train Opening

We had one spot open up for a Board & Train start date, and this is a great opportunity for the right dog and owner.

Whether you’re looking for better manners, leash skills, reliable obedience, improved focus, or a jump-start before summer gets busy, our Board & Train programs are designed to build real-life obedience that holds up beyond the training room.

At Cane Sportivo, every dog receives a customized training plan, professional handling, structured daily work, and continued support after go-home so owners feel confident keeping the progress going.

Spots like this do not open often, and we do expect this one to fill quickly.

Message us today or visit www.canesportivo.com to schedule a phone consultation and see if this opening is the right fit for your dog.

Welcome “Guns” to the Cane Sportivo board & train program 💪🐾

This absolute UNIT of a Cane Corso checked in for some e-collar refresher/reintroduction work along with polishing up his manners — especially when greeting strangers. At over a WHOPPING 160lbs, personal space is more of a suggestion for this guy 😅

Big powerful dogs still need structure, clarity, and obedience to be good canine citizens, and we’re excited to help Guns sharpen everything back up. Safe to say I may need to drink an extra protein shake before bed after working this tank every day 🤣

Stay tuned for updates on this handsome beast!

Welcome Heidi to Puppy Foundations! 🖤

This young Doberman girl has officially joined the Cane Sportivo crew, and we’re excited to start building a strong foundation for her future. Over the next several weeks we’ll be focusing on foundational obedience, confidence building, socialization, environmental exposure, and introducing low level stim e-collar conditioning the right way.

Dobermans are such an intelligent and driven breed, and early structure and exposure make all the difference. Looking forward to watching Heidi grow and develop through the program! 🔥
