Train Savage

Flexible dog Training Options in Arizona

Savage K9 focuses on relationship-based training for a strong and safer bond with your dog. Many dogs will obey for a treat or a toy, but we focus on a relationship rooted in trust and respect.

We want your dog to listen because you said so. Because you are in leadership position and because he likes to. Not because he thinks he might get a cookie from you.

This training approach is called Out-of-Drive obedience. It builds trust, respect, and reliability between you and your pup, because it's important for your dog to listen the first time, every time (especially in high-pressure situations).

EVERY DOG DESERVES THE

FREEDOM

to be off leash

THE MOST RELIABLE WAY TO TRAIN YOUR DOG

Our methods succeed where other programs fail. Oftentimes, our clients have been through multiple trainers with no luck. Once you discover the power of relationship-based communication... You will never look back. Our approach is easier and more reliable.

Stay

Does your dog have trouble staying in a sit or down? Does he run out the front door? We will show you how to get your pup to stay in place, regardless of the chaos that surrounds you.

Recall

Does your dog chase cats, birds, people, or other dogs? This is an all too common complaint we hear from most owners. We will work with you on reliable recall, a life-saving skill in many situations.

Communicate

Do you crave a deep bond and understanding with your dog? Do you have a desire for effortless communication and clarity? No matter the age or breed, this is our specialty.
