Our philosophy is
Positive Balanced Dog Training™
Developed by Founder Russ Norcross this foundation shapes how we approach behavior, learning, and leadership. We balance structure, clarity, and fair reinforcement.
Our exclusive framework is our signature and proven L.E.A.D System of Learning
Learn • Expect • Apply • Deepen
The same process used to train thousands of working and family K-9 teams nationwide.
Every dog — and every owner — learns differently.
That’s why we customize the path, not just the commands.
Day Camp + Coach Program Experience
Structured training during the day. Leadership reinforced at home.
This option is for owners who want meaningful progress during the day, but want their dog home every night with them.
You value structure, consistency, and guidance.
You see training as something that should integrate into daily life.
What makes this program unique?
During the day, your dog participates in structured training and enrichment under trainer supervision. They learn how to navigate stimulation, practice obedience with clarity, and build confidence through repetition and routine.
At select pickups, you’ll receive owner coaching so you understand what your dog is learning and how to support training at home. Your dog benefits from the consistency of professional training, while you stay actively involved in the process.
This is our most popular option because it blends the structure of a stay-and-train program with the connection of daily life at home, it's ideal for owners who want steady progress and continued learning together.
