Over the years we’ve had the privilege of working with hundreds of dogs and their families through our Board & Train programs. While the transformations are always exciting to see, what often gets missed is everything that happens between day one and graduation.

That’s why we’ve started building out the blog section of our website.

Many of the training session videos we share on YouTube are now being turned into detailed articles that break down exactly what we’re working on, why we’re doing it, and how each exercise fits into the bigger picture of training. Whether it’s puppy foundations, obedience, behavior modification, engagement work, off-leash reliability, or advanced training concepts, our goal is to help dog owners better understand the process behind the results.

You’ll find training sessions featuring dogs like Onyx, Carbon, Gemmy, and many others as we continue documenting their journeys and sharing the lessons learned along the way.

If you’re interested in dog training, looking for tips to help with your own dog, or simply enjoy following our Board & Train dogs as they progress through their programs, we invite you to check it out.

Thank you to everyone who continues to follow, support, and trust us with their dogs. We appreciate being a part of your training journey.

Every Thursday we host our group class alongside at in San Jose.

One of the primary goals of our group classes is helping dogs properly generalize their training in different environments. We utilize the entire complex to create a variety of training scenarios that help proof obedience, improve engagement and reinforce proper social neutrality around people, dogs and environmental distractions.

These sessions are designed to help dogs and handlers build clearer communication, confidence and reliability outside of the training environment. From puppies and pet dogs to advanced working dogs, our focus is always on creating practical, well rounded training.

If you are already part of the pack and would like to begin attending group classes, speak with your trainer. If you are interested in getting started with training, contact us through our website and we will help get you and your dog started.

This 2 day workshop is designed for both decoys and dogs looking to improve clarity, response to pressure and overall performance on the ground.

We will be covering our ground game system along with our long fight incremental pressure approach focusing on building strong fundamentals and progressing into more advanced applications.

The ground game plays a critical role in developing the dog. It helps improve:
• Response to spatial pressure
• Endurance
• Body awareness and safe maneuvering
• Grip strength
• Overall confidence and problem-solving under pressure

For decoys, the focus is on improving mechanics, timing, positioning, and the ability to apply pressure in a clear and progressive manner.

The objective is simple:
refine your skills and add practical, effective tools to your toolbox.

Over the course of the weekend, we will cover:
• Step-by-step progressions from beginner to advanced
• Proper mechanics for both decoys and dogs
• Controlled application of pressure
• Introduction to our decoy leveling system
• Classroom and field-based instruction (with and without dogs)

Limited working dog spots available.

Location: Gilroy, CA
Dates: June 6th & 7th
