ication. October of 2005, I ventured out and started my own company, All Dogs Training. I have my own personal dogs I've trained : K9 Lester, Belgian Malinois, for Narcotics detection, K9 Massima, K9 Lapua, and K9 Judge, German Shepherds, for SAR. Bogie, Boxer/pitt mix, for CGC and preagility, and Shannon, Shepherd mix, for showing off her obedience and socialization skills. The purpose of our program is to educate and help pet owners understand their dog's behaviors. Dogs are pack animals and enjoy being around their human family. Without proper socialization and discipline, they can develop out-of-control or destructive behaviors. These behaviors can cause lots of frustration. We combine exercise, positive reinforcement, fun training games, and socialization with consistency and reinforcement to establish leadership. Our goal is to teach your dog to know what behaviors are expected of him/her and to help create a balanced pet and owner companionship. All commands are performed the first time they are given, even with distractions. At the end of only three weeks, your dog will do the following on-leash: SIT, DOWN, STAY with distractions, COME, HEEL at your side and automatically sitting when you stop, LEAVE IT, DROP IT, and PLACE. We also teach your dog how to properly greet people without jumping up and how to go through gates and doors under control. We also work on problem behaviors such as house training, socialization, fear aggression, leash aggression, separation anxiety, nipping, digging, chewing, and all other unwanted behaviors. Dogs aged 3 months and up. Our programs are designed to meet individuals needs. Therefore, we customize our programs to ensure customer satisfaction. We stand behind our training 100% and offer a lifetime guarantee. Each dog begins the training the day they meet with the trainer. so they are on their own schedule. Appointments are available Monday-Saturday 9 am- 6 pm. FREE brush up training included in boarding costs when dogs complete the training program.So you never have to worry about your dog regressing while you are away. Boarding costs are $45 per night your dog sleeps over. This includes, but is not limited to:
*24 hour supervision * participation in group training * socialization and play time * pictures sent via email * care provided for sick, elderly, and injured pets * no extra charge to administer medicine * Transportation provided for your pet(s) for a small fee.

"Today, Boarding School Students Million, Freyja, Sunny, Gunner, and Arlo took their training to the next level with a field trip to the Riverwalk! It was the perfect opportunity to put all their skills to the test in a completely new and distracting environment, and their trainers couldn't be more proud of how each of them handled it. From heeling to sit-stays and recalls, they demonstrated their commands with focus and confidence, despite all the exciting sights and sounds around them. This was a big step in their training journey, and their progress is shining through. Fantastic work, team—you're all proving just how capable you are!"

"Boarding school student Rosie continues to impress with her growing skills! This morning's training session was all about refining her heeling with auto sit, sit-stay, and down-stay, and she tackled each command with enthusiasm. As a rambunctious puppy, Rosie has tons of energy, which can be a challenge, but it's also what makes her such a joy to work with. Seeing her channel that energy into learning and mastering these commands has been incredibly rewarding. I'm so proud of how far she's come, and I can't wait to see her continue to progress in the days ahead. Keep up the amazing work, Rosie!"

It's impressive to see Gunner's progress, especially with such a clean, uncorrected performance. Maintaining this level of focus is key to his continued development, as it will make it easier for him to apply his commands any day without any complications.

It's great to see that Freya is responding well to corrections and improving her focus. Continuing to reinforce her attention during routines will help her maintain that constant concentration. Today she put into practice commands like leave it sit / down + stay and place and she performs them successfully.

It seems like Arlo is making good progress with commands, albeit with some areas that require fine-tuning. Continuing to work on those error patterns and perfecting the recall will help make its performance even more solid. Top Dog Training & Resort

Sunny, our bright and eager boarding school student, had a remarkable training session today, focusing solely on his off-leash recall in a challenging environment filled with distractions. Even with his friends nearby, creating a tempting atmosphere to break focus, Sunny remained steadfast and responsive, coming to his trainer promptly with each recall command. His ability to maintain concentration and follow through, despite the potential for distraction, shows just how much progress he’s making. We’re incredibly proud of Sunny’s dedication and growth—keep up the fantastic work, Sunny, you're truly shining!

Boarding school students Tango and Million teamed up for an impressive joint training session today, focusing on heeling in a figure eight, place, and leave it commands. Tango took the stage first, showing remarkable attention to his trainer and demonstrating excellent restraint during the leave it commands. When it was Million’s turn, he matched Tango’s performance with equally strong heeling and a flawless response to the leave it command. Both boys brought their best to the session, making it an awesome day of teamwork and training. Great job, Tango and Million!

Our Story

I've been an animal lover all of my life. Constantly rescuing animals, doing volunteer work with shelters and rescue organizations, and finding the right home for the right dog, led me to a career in dog training. In September 2004, I attended Tarheel Canine and completed a one year internship to become a certified Police K9 Instructor, Narcotics and Explosives Detection, Man Trailing and Search and Rescue, and Obedience and Behavior Modification. October of 2005, I ventured out and started my own company, All Dogs Training. I have my own personal dogs I've trained : K9 Lester, Belgian Malinois, for Narcotics detection, K9 Massima, German Shepherd, for SAR. Bogie, Boxer/pitt mix, for CGC and preagility, and Shannon, Shepherd mix, for showing off her obedience and socialization skills.
