Dog Training

We teach you what matters, keep their big personality intact, and support you in living a sweet life with your dog.

  • Knucklehead Classes

    Got a knucklehead teen or adult dog over 6 months? Awesome! Also: yikes. 🤣 Our 4-week Knucklehead Class is here to help you survive and thrive. We meet weekly to focus on the training that actually matters for real-life success (like leash manners, impulse control, and finding the off switch). From day one, you’ll get access to online resources, Q&A with our trainers, and guides to start laying the groundwork at home. Then, we’ll tackle it all together with distractions and camaraderie.

    You’ll also get a few essentials to make life easier: a Chill Pad, treat pouch, and tote to carry it all. $325

  • Ultimate Knucklehead Program

    UKP is a guided experience to help you raise your adolescent dog and tackle tricky moments.
    We combine our Foundations Class with 2 one-on-one lessons and a 3-week class to level up leash and “leave it” skills.
    Includes online learning, community forum, guides, and gear: Chill Pad, treat pouch, and tote. $925

  • Private Lessons

    Got a dog with a big personality—leash pullers, jumpers, boundary-pushers? Our 1:1 sessions cut through the noise, focusing on what matters: making your life easier and your dog more manageable.

    We tailor each session to meet your dog where they’re at, giving you clear tools to tackle real-world challenges. Homework between sessions keeps progress rolling. Perfect for owners ready to put in the work, especially in multi-dog households. Available at all locations.

    Includes online learning, community forum, guides, and gear: Chill Pad, treat pouch, and tote.

  • City Day School

    Drop-Off Day School is your transformative solution for a better-behaved dog. We’ll help with the heavy lift of skill building in the real world, loop you in with 1:1 lessons, and they will be home to cuddle with you at night.

    Leash pulling, sidewalk meltdowns, or figuring out how to navigate a world full of chicken bones, newbies can start with a multi-week program. And OPB grads can drop in for training days for customized learning at our Old City studio. Includes online learning, a community forum, guides, and gear to keep it all simple.

  • Boarding School

    Our Boarding School program is our most transformative program and is like a reset button for you and your pup. At our farm, your dog will learn, play, and build skills in a setting that feels more like camp than school over several weeks.

    With fenced fields for romping, trails for exploring, and training sessions that include both wide-open spaces and real-world in-town scenarios, your pup gets the best of both worlds. We personalize skill-building to focus on what matters and send video updates so you can learn along side your teen wolf. When it’s time for the handoff, we make sure you’re set up to carry it forward with 1:1 lessons, regular updates, and post-program support.

    They’ll come home better-behaved, more confident, and ready to better handle life with you. Sound good?
