ADOLESCENT & ADULT PROGRAMS

We're here for all

Sexual maturity kicks off adolescence and is followed by two important life stages - both of which also come with behavior changes.

Adolescence is filled with continued growth, change & hormones. A dog begins exploring and trying out new behaviors. Some of these behaviors aren't so welcome, like counter surfing, roaming, household destruction, excess barking and jumping.

WHY US

Board & Train programs have traditionally used tools like ecollars, prong collars, choke chains and slip leads to teach compliance. We don't.

Our programs teach dogs to coexist happily - they choose to do what we ask because they want to, not because we they have to "or else." Humans predict great things, not fear or pain, when working with Wiggle Butt Academy.

We commit to providing the highest quality learning without the nasty side effects of force.

PROGRAMS

PUPPIES We focus on the right education at the right time. From critical-period socialization, manners, and healthy puppy play through adolescence - we guide you with kindness and science.

ADOLESCENT & ADULT MANNERS Want training but need a serious jump start? We've got you! From manners to Canine Good Citizen prep, we develop plans to fit your family's needs

FEARFUL & AGGRESSIVE DOGS We are one of few companies in the Metroplex that offer fear and force free Board & Train services for fearful or aggressive dogs.

Let's talk if you need help.

SPECIALTY SERVICE

WE ALL HAVE SPECIAL NEEDS SOMETIMES When they're struggling

CHOOSE KINDNESS

FAMILY PAWS A certified Family Paws Parent Educator (FPPE) helps families with dogs & infants or toddlers live safely and with harmony.

DOG | HUMAN AGGRESSION We approach all cases with kindness, including aggression. Because most aggression is rooted in fear, our kind approach gets to the source of the problem. No band-aids here, we help your dog feel better about what's scary. When your dog feels better, aggressive behavior is no longer needed to tell the scary thing to go away.

RESOURCE GUARDING Does your dog protect things from humans or other dogs?

We can help.

DOG | DOG AGGRESSION

We help families struggling with dogs who don't get along.

FEAR

We work with all types of fear, including fear of humans, dogs, sounds, storms, and more.

LEASH REACTIVITY

We help with barking, lunging & aggressive looking displays on walks.
