our story

At Beyond Dogs, everything we do stems from a deep love for dogs and a commitment to their well-being. Our journey started with a simple goal: to help dogs and their owners form lasting, trusting relationships. By focusing on each dog’s unique personality and needs, we’ve crafted a training approach that nurtures understanding, communication, and joy between dogs and their humans. Every success story fuels our passion, and we’re excited to continue helping others experience the incredible bond that comes from positive, balanced training.

Our Goal

At Beyond Dogs, our goal is to help you build a deeper, more balanced relationship with your dog through our holistic, results-based training approach. We believe in the power of positive reinforcement while also ensuring your dog understands boundaries and expectations. This balanced approach encourages dogs to make positive choices, fostering behaviors that are both reliable and enjoyable.

Through our training programs, you’ll learn techniques to consistently guide your dog, building an enduring bond based on trust and clear communication. With these foundations, your dog gains the freedom, confidence, and obedience to thrive in all environments. We’re here to support you every step of the way in creating a joyful, cooperative partnership with your four-legged friend.

Our Training Philosophy

Dogs thrive on rules, boundaries and structure. Dogs want a job to do, they want to follow a calm and assertive leader. This is what we will help you achieve. We will coach you, the owner, and help you to develop the skills you need to raise a calm and confident companion, one who wants to listen and understands what you expect of them.
