Pumper is our Dalmatian. We're a firefighter/EMS family, and with 24–48 hour shifts there was no consistency for him. He was peeing in the house, chewed through thousands of dollars of patio furniture, and he was dominant, prey driven and chasing squirrels — completely out of control. Our sweet dog had become a stressor, and we honestly asked ourselves whether rehoming him would be kinder. Then a training program turned it around. We saw real improvement in Pumper within the first couple of weeks, and in about eight weeks he was a different dog. That's why we do this.
You've tried the videos, the classes, the advice from friends. Nothing sticks. Most dogs don't need more commands — they need clear, calm leadership.
At the doorbell, the window, the neighbor's dog, the leaf that moved. You've stopped answering the door without bracing first.
You come home and check the rug before you check your messages. The enzyme cleaner is on every shopping list.
Your shoulder knows the walk is over before your dog does. Half the time you just open the back door instead.
"Come" works in the kitchen. Outside, with the gate open, it means nothing — and you know exactly how that could end.
Cushions, shoes, door frames, patio furniture. You add up what it's cost you and try not to finish the math.
One squirrel and your arm is nearly out of its socket. Cats, birds, bikes — the whole world is something to chase.
Every dog is assessed individually. Your plan is shaped around your dog's temperament, your lifestyle, and the results you want most.

Our core program — on-leash and off-leash obedience, taught in your home.

Barking, accidents, pulling, chewing and prey drive — including aggression and bite history.

Training for Emotional Support, PTSD and Anxiety service dogs.

In-home training is our preference — boarding is available when it suits your dog or household better.
The accidents, the chewing, the barking at the door — they happen at home, so that's where we train. Every program starts with an in-home evaluation, then a plan built around your dog and your household.
Tell us about your dog, what's going on, and what you've already tried.
We come to you and see your dog where the behavior actually shows up.
A plan built around your dog, your household and what you want to be able to do together.
I'm Angela Benazouz. Our Dalmatian, Pumper, was out of control — and with a firefighter/EMS schedule, we almost rehomed him. A training program changed that. Now I want the same for you: a dog you can fully love, enjoy and take anywhere.
