From day-one puppies to dogs with serious behavior cases, every Purest Canines program is built around the individual dog in front of us. Serving Amissville, Fredericksburg, Warrenton, Culpeper and the DMV.
Every dog and household is different. Tell us what's going on and we'll scope the right fit, whether that's a 30-minute private lesson or a 6-month immersive program. Same trainer on the phone, in the program, and at follow-up.
An immersive 24/7 program at our Amissville facility. Your dog stays with us, gets daily structured training, and comes home a different animal. The ideal pick for new puppy parents, owners of challenging dogs, or anyone who wants real obedience without the multi-month timeline of weekly lessons.
The middle path between weekly private lessons and full board & train. We combine a shortened immersive stay with a series of trainer-led private sessions, you stay hands-on with your dog while the heavy lifting happens at our facility.
Full immersion training for young dogs, modeled after our in-house regimen. Ideal for owners who can't commit to weekly private lessons but want their dog raised right from day one. Tiered levels available, choose the depth that matches your goals.
Specialized rehabilitation for serious cases, aggression, reactivity, resource guarding, bite history, anxiety-driven habits, severe fear. Cases other trainers won't take. We don't water down the work, and we'll tell you honestly what's possible after we meet your dog.
Customized one-hour sessions at our facility. Hands-on coaching for you and your dog covering obedience, leash manners, house etiquette, and behavior coaching. You walk out with homework to lock in the work between sessions.
