Transform Your Dog's Behavior Today
Every dog has the potential to be a well-behaved companion, and we're here to help you unlock that potential. Chris Ross uses the NePoPo® Training Method, which stands for NEgative POsitive POsitive corrections. This unique approach combines the four quadrants of reinforcement in a safe, fun, and loving manner. The result? A dog who performs desired behaviors on cue with heart and soul.
Our Training Programs Include:
Board & Train Program:
Imagine returning home to a dog who listens and behaves. Our 3-6 week personalized Train & Board program offers intensive training, ensuring your dog masters good behavior while receiving top-notch care and love.
Day Training Program:
Busy schedule? No problem! Drop off your dog in the morning for engaging lessons and sessions, and pick up a well-trained pup before the day ends. Continue the training at home and see the transformation unfold.
