Force-Free. Science-Based. Heart-Centered.
At Instinctive Dog, we believe every dog deserves to be understood — not dominated. We specialize in gentle, reward-based behavior solutions, certified therapy dog training, and calm, home-environment boarding that feels like a vacation for your pup.
Whether your dog is reactive, anxious, or just needs better manners — we see the dog behind the behavior. No shock collars. No fear. Only trust, clarity, and joy.
