IMAGINE:

 THE ONLY TRAINING YOU AND YOUR DOG WILL EVER NEED

 

ARE YOU LOOKING FOR A DOG WHO IS AN EXEMPLARY CANINE GOOD CITIZEN IN THE CITY AND ON THE TRAILS?  No one should have to live with a dog that attacks people or dogs, runs away, terrorizes guests, or pulls on the leash. We can help! No dog or family is the same, period. That is why we offer an intensive, results-oriented, comprehensive, and customized curricula. Each program is thoughtfully designed to meet you and your dog's unique needs and goals.

 

We utilize a multi-pronged, thoughtful approach that focuses on healing the whole dog and empowering their owners. We strive to foster an inclusive environment where your dog listens with AND without a leash, with the ultimate reward being freedom and more privileges- not treats. Your dog will learn huge amounts of impulse control (yes, even around balls, cats, squirrels, and food), healthier coping mechanisms, and they will develop a newfound accountability for the choices that they make.

 

The Loyal Hound will inspire SERIOUS CHANGE in your dog’s behavior, and transform your life as you know it.

During your time with The Loyal Hound, your pup will learn to be self-aware as they move through their world and to live constructively, with grace, in yours.

Have you ever wanted to enjoy a relaxed stroll with your dog in busy areas with high levels of environmental distractions?

Stop unwanted problem behaviors in your home or when guests come over? Then this intensive program is for you.  Comprised of FIVE 60-min sessions, we will leave you with a dog that can:

 

- Walk on a loose leash, without reactivity or aggression toward people, animals, dogs, bikes, scooters, or other triggers and distractions in busy public spaces

- Exhibit calm, neutral behavior in public & in the home; ability to settle and a built-in “off” switch

- Hold place command (implied stay on a dog bed) when guests come in, while you eat, etc.

- Understanding of the word “no”; great for stopping nuisance behaviors such as barking, counter surfing, digging, inappropriate intensity, jumping on people, etc

 

 In this program, your pup will learn through relationship-based training to follow commands because he loves and respects you - not because he gets a cookie. Affection and inclusion are the ultimate rewards! You will be left with a dog who you can take in public and have out when guests come over without the risk of embarrassment and stress.

  DENVER'S #1 BOARD AND TRAIN

​

 

ONE-WEEK BOARD AND TRAIN / UNLIMITED FOLLOW UPS - $2899 *

TWO-Week BOARD AND TRAIN / UNLIMITED FOLLOW UPS - $3899 *

​

​

(Intended for dogs exhibiting more serious, aggressive behaviors; on/off leash obedience included.) 

 

 

 

 

Here are some examples of what your dog can learn in their Board and Train Program:

 

Your dog will be able to follow commands on and off-leash, without treats, in HIGH LEVELS OF DISTRACTION.  We will also address any on-leash issues such as pulling, jumping, and excessive barking. We will modify behavior accordingly if your dog is exhibiting aggression. 

 

In each customized program, your dog will learn the commands that we feel will give them the greatest quality of life and inclusion.

Here are just a few of the behaviors that can be trained and addressed:

 

• Heel (Loose-leash walking) in high distraction settings - no reactivity!

• Down-Stay

• Place Command 

• Recall (Come) in high distraction settings

• Crate Manners/Separation Anxiety

• How to walk/run on the treadmill

• Waiting for Food, and not rushing through open doors, or up/down stairs

• Mouthiness

• A "Drop" or "Out" Command

• Counter-Surfing

• Compulsive Barking

• Impolite Greetings (Jumping)

 

Our immersive program builds massive amounts of confidence and helps your dog develop social skills and coping tools for interacting with (or just tolerating) dogs and humans, patterns new foundation behaviors, working the entire time toward creating a more stable emotional baseline.  Dogs receive private, customized training sessions, group training sessions, daily structured walks, controlled socialization opportunities with balanced dogs, and supervised play time between intensive training. We specialize in cutting-edge, low-level remote collar training and advanced behavior modification. Please take a moment to read about how remote collar training humanely and effectively facilitates clear dog-human communication here.  By the end of their stay, your dog will understand an entirely new way of being. Additionally, you will be armed with a better understanding of canine psychology, body language, and proper handling skills, allowing you both to enjoy a stress-free life together. Our methods build confidence by teaching your dog to defer to you when they are uncomfortable, create space when they need it, and reliably make better choices in all kinds of situations, with minimal stress and confusion, and in a very reasonable amount of time.  

 

We are one of the few training companies in the Denver area with a successful track record when it comes to the rehabilitation of both human and dog-aggressive dogs, even those with documented bite histories.  Through intensive Rehabilitation Programs designed with compassion, structure, obedience, and the application of advanced behavior modification techniques, we have saved hundreds of dogs that would have otherwise been put down or given up on. Having your dog board with us during the rehabilitation process allows us to enforce a 24/7 lifestyle-routine, and provide the ideal training environment for such dramatic changes to take place.  Your dog will learn to trust the human leaders in their lives, and to follow non-negotiable rules and boundaries - these key principles and many more, are needed to re-establish balance.

 

Rest assured that the safety and well-being of your dog is #1 during their stay with us.  Boarding dogs are kenneled in a climate-controlled facility and are closely monitored 24/7 by Simplisafe. 

                                                                  

 

 

...“But what about the other end of the leash?

                What if the owners need some extra training?”

​

 

WE'VE GOT YOU COVERED! For clients who go the Board and Train route with their beasts, our program design sets you and your dog up for a lifetime of success and results that actually last.

 

As you can imagine, humans play a huge role in getting a dog truly back to good. We provide everything needed to help your dog get it right, from hands-on training in real-world scenarios to endless online resources available. Included in our program fee is all training equipment, in addition to continued owner education and support. We are one of the few local companies who proudly offer UNLIMITED ONE ON ONE PRIVATE FOLLOW UP LESSONS. These are made available to our clients for the lifetime of the dog! Additional sessions can be scheduled with us directly as needed if there is a specific scenario or environment you would like help navigating.
