In every program
We are not a high-volume, cookie-cutter training facility. Every dog receives a fully customized program, handled personally by our trainers, in our training home, with only a limited number of dogs at a time.
How a stay works
A direct call with our team. We listen, find the root cause, and recommend the right program. No cost, no obligation.
Bring your dog to Cypress, or add the $250 transportation service and our team collects your dog from home.
Not a kennel. Your dog lives and stays in our trainer’s home and trains in everyday environments, on a program customized to them.
Professional photo and video updates every Monday, Wednesday and Friday, so you see the progress as it happens.
Public places, distractions, other dogs and people. Calm, neutral behavior is built where life actually happens.
Our trainers show you exactly how to maintain and build on the results at home. Then follow-up lessons and lifetime support.
Questions
In our trainer’s home in Cypress, not a warehouse or kennel. That in-home environment is the point: real-world training in everyday settings, so the results transfer to your home.

The 1-Week Silver Foundation Program is a short-term introduction focused on basic structure and foundational obedience. Our team will tell you on the free call if it’s the right fit, or if your dog needs the time and repetition of a longer program.
Gold (2 weeks) builds a strong foundation: leash manners, sit/stay, place/stay, door boundaries and better impulse control. Platinum (3 weeks) adds down/stay, the structured heel, field trips into public places and behavior modification for reactivity or aggression, plus unlimited private lessons afterwards. If the problem shows up around other dogs, people or distractions, Platinum is the answer.
A balanced approach: clear communication, rewards for the behavior we want, and fair, consistent boundaries for the behavior we don’t. Every dog gets a customized plan. The VIP program includes a Mini-Educator e-collar for reliable off-leash communication; our team explains exactly how tools are introduced and used on your free call.
Your dog’s regular food (enough for the stay, plus a little extra), any medications with instructions, current vaccination records, and a collar with ID. Our team will confirm the full list and answer anything specific to your dog when you book.
Not if you follow through. The go-home session shows you exactly how to keep the structure, and the follow-up lessons make sure it sticks. With consistency the results don’t fade, they keep improving.
