The Diligent Dog IAABC Shelter Behavior Affiliate providing biology-based solutions for all canine companions Don't be fooled by flashy tools and gimmicky hardware!

The Diligent Dog is Conroe's only family-owned and operated biology-based dog training organization! Having the OWNER ON-SITE means your dog receives 24/7 round-the-clock care by seasoned professional staff and our certified, professional positive reinforcement trainer. The "quick fix" approach to dog training is always pretty at the start and awful at the finish. Tho avoid this mishap, when vetti

ng your trainer, always ask the Three Tests of Transparency:

1. What happens when my dog gets something right?
2. What happens when my dog gets something wrong?
3. Is there a less invasive way to achieve my training goals? These answers should be in-depth and backed by scientific evidence of success. Trainers and owners across the nation are seeing a paradigm shift in how we treat our dogs and it's our responsibility as owners (and trainers) to provide the most effective and lasting means of communication for our dogs. We guarantee our commitment to science-based, biology-focused training and behavior management and we are committed to providing this service to the dogs (and their owners) of Houston and Montgomery county.

Did you know the same conditioning protocols we use for our training program align with the same protocols for conditioned cooperative care in many species?

This approach has proven effective for decades for species ranging from bears to tigers to bull elephants (and even blue crabs!)

Thank you, for everything, Dr. Goodall.

Thank you, for everything, Dr. Goodall.

The Jane Goodall Institute has learned this morning, Wednesday, October 1, 2025, that Dr. Jane Goodall DBE, UN Messenger of Peace and Founder of the Jane Goodall Institute has passed away due to natural causes. She was in California as part of her speaking tour in the United States.

Dr. Goodall’s discoveries as an ethologist revolutionized science, and she was a tireless advocate for the protection and restoration of our natural world.

Sleep hygiene is a serious topic around here, one that is covered often in all of our training programs. Many of those with whom we have worked have heard it preached often just how much sleep dogs (especially growing dogs!) need and the behavioral fall-out that is at risk by not meeting their basic needs everyday.

Puppies need an average of 14-16 hours of sleep everyday at minimum. Adult dogs over the age of 2-3 years old need an average of 12 hours of sleep. With busy work and school schedules hinging on humans having 8 hours of sleep, we must provide our dogs with adequate opportunity to make up for lost time.

Without a quiet, low traffic space to rest, the resulting symptoms of sleep deprivation over time often become the behaviors we are solving later in order to prevent habituation.
