Our mission is to help you have a dog you want to take everywhere -- running on Lady Bird Lake, downtown, for coffee, in elevators, to work -- wherever you go. We do this by teaching you a positive, non-intimidating approach to dog training based on play and fun. The Canine Center's unique training methodology is the culmination and refinement of years of successful application to more than 13,000
dogs and their people, and 8,000 class sessions. We are committed to providing you with comprehensive, high quality dog training and behavior services based on principles developed by world-renowned behviorist John Rogerson. We look forward to new programs, new locations, and continuing to help you and your canine enjoy your life together.
In case anyone is worried, don’t be. When we acquired the property the Center is on, it was in the business plan to sell in 2025, and we had our next landing spot in mind already. That time is upon us! Our next home will be very near by, much less of a move than our 2015 relocation. The property is beautiful right now. Come out so see us for class, leason, or field rental!
All of us at The Canine Center are happy to see the sun this morning, especially our biggest ”dogs”!
If you weren’t there, here is what you missed. Even in the rain, we train and are ”more fun than mud!”. Thanks to the campers for making it memorable! Jim says he will come back to cook in March.

To LURE or not to LURE? Why is that even a question? If you asked you dog, you would get the head-cocked-to-the-side and the bubble above his/her head would read "is my person insane? the answer is always heck yeah!" This weekend. Be there, or disappoint you dog.
Who is going camping with us? This is our spot!
And when you get home, this is the dog you get. “She did not even make the kitchen”.
This could be your dog! LURE IS ON!
PSA: interesting talk from a veterinarian on the "mystery illness" affecting dogs right now. Very informative, not sensationalized.

The media attention is scary. Is it an over-reaction to something normal? A new disease? Check out my webinar and if you have the time, check this post out as well.
Evie has been enjoying the cooler nights out at the Center, fireside. How about you all? How are you spending your nights this week?
LURE this weekend!

Hello Friends,
One of our most valuable partners, The Schrodi Memorial Training Fund is in real need in this post pandemic fallout. So many people got dogs at the onset, and either have dogs with separation issues, or returned them into shelters, where they await a new home. Many people would like to give a dog a new home, but may not be able to afford the training necesary to help that dog make the adjustment. At The Canine Center, we are seeing a real uptick in various anxiety driven behaviors. While our mission is altruistic, we are a business and must collect payment for our services, or we won't be here for people needing our help in the future. That is where The Schrodi Fund comes in. They help bridge the gap by awarding people in need scholarships to help fund the training needed to keep dogs in their homes. Won't you help by donating to this 501(c)3 that is helping families and their dogs stay together? https://www.givinggrid.com/sljbvq
Thanks to everyone! Every little bit helps someone!
Don’t know if it is the punkin kongs, but Evie is outgrowing her bed!
We have room on the LURE schedule tomorrow morning! https://clients.mindbodyonline.com/classic/ws?studioid=15842&sclassid=16707&sDate=11/26/2023&sLoc=1&sTG=28&sType=1👏
