Your Path to a Safer, Calmer Life with Your Dog
Real change doesn’t come from a “factory reset.”
It comes from clear structure, patient coaching, and training that fits your real life.
Our Proven Process
Every dog and household is different. After your intake and consultation, we recommend a service structure built specifically for your case. All of our options focus on:
Teaching your dog specific alternative behaviors
Coaching you on how to respond consistently
Creating results that last beyond a single session
Custom Training Contracts
Best for: Ongoing behavior work and complex cases
A training contract is a structured series of private, one-on-one sessions focused on your goals. Together we:
Address specific behaviors and triggers
Build new habits and clear routines
Check progress and adjust as needed
This is our most common recommendation for complex behavior cases and for families who want steady, guided support over time.

🐾 The New Trailblazers
From leash frustration to confident outdoor adventures.
If your dog drags you down the sidewalk or makes every walk feel like a workout, The New Trailblazers is designed for you. This 2-month program builds reliable loose-leash skills and gives you a clear path from “barely managing” to genuinely enjoying time outside together.
Phase 1: The 30-Day Foundation — $990 (22 days of service)
In the first month, Daniel focuses on creating calm, consistent behavior on leash so walks stop feeling like a battle. Your dog works directly with a professional trainer to:
Practice loose-leash walking in real environments
Build focus and impulse control around distractions
Develop better manners and predictability on outings
You’ll receive weekly progress reports with photos so you can see the changes, plus 24-hour text access for questions and concerns during the program.
Phase 2: Your Path Forward (next 30 days)
Once the foundation is in place, you choose how to continue:
Option 1 – Continuation Walking ($750, discounted)
Keep Daniel as your dog’s regular loose-leash walker for 22 more walks. This is ideal if you want a professional maintaining the progress while you gradually step in.
Option 2 – Owner Upgrade Lessons ($440, 4 private lessons)
Take the leash yourself with four 1-hour private lessons. Daniel will teach you how to handle your dog confidently, maintain the new skills, and keep building on the work you’ve started together.
Why this program works
The New Trailblazers gives your dog the structure and repetition they need to change how they move through the world—and then gives you a clear, realistic way to keep it going. Instead of endless “tune-up” sessions, you get a focused foundation and a plan that matches your lifestyle and comfort level.
