Training Programs

4 Week Basic Obedience

 

Our 4-Week Basic Obedience Board & Train is designed to give your dog a solid foundation in everyday manners, reliable communication, and calm behavior at home and in public. Your dog stays in our structured, trainer-guided environment where we work daily on the core skills every dog needs to be a great companion.


What We Focus On:

  • Name recognition & engagement
     
  • Climb, Sit, Down, and Heel
     
  • Loose-leash walking and polite hallway/doorway manners
     
  • Recall foundations (“come”)
     
  • Impulse control around distractions
     
  • Crate training
     
  • Reduced jumping, mouthing, and other common issues
     

How It Works:
Your dog lives at the boarding facility for 4 full weeks and trains multiple times a day. We blend repetitions, play, and real-world exposure to help your dog learn quickly and stay confident. All training sessions build toward practical results you can use every day.

Owner Involvement:
You’ll come in at the end of each training week for a hands-on session with your dog. These demonstrations help you understand what your dog is learning, how to read their responses, and how to communicate clearly so everything transfers back home.

At the end of the program, pickup includes a full handover lesson where we go through every command, skill, and routine. You’ll leave with solid handling practice, clear take-home instructions, and ongoing support to make sure the training lasts.

Ideal For:
Dogs who need a reliable obedience foundation, improved manners, or more structured learning than what weekly lessons can provide.

2 Week Advanced Obedience

 

Our 2-Week Advanced Obedience Board & Train is built for dogs who already have a solid foundation and are ready to level up their skills with more precision, reliability, and distraction-proof performance. Over two focused, high-intensity weeks, your dog trains multiple times a day in real-world environments to sharpen their obedience and strengthen their engagement.


What We Focus On:

  • Clean, reliable responses to core commands
     
  • Duration, distance, and distraction work
     
  • Polished heel and off-leash foundation skills (as appropriate)
     
  • Strong recall in busy environments
     
  • Advanced impulse control and neutrality
     
  • Proofing around dogs, people, noises, and everyday challenges
     

How It Works:
Your dog stays in a structured training environment where we push past the basics and build true reliability. Sessions blend drills, environmental exposure, and controlled challenges so your dog learns to stay focused no matter what’s going on around them.

Owner Involvement:
You’ll come in at the end of each week for a hands-on session to learn exactly how to handle your dog’s new skill level. At pickup, we do a full advanced handover lesson so you walk away confident, consistent, and fully ready to maintain your dog’s progress at home.

Ideal For:
Dogs who already understand basic obedience and are ready for more structure, more polish, and more control—both on and off leash.

Austin Davis

Owner/Lead Trainer

My name is Austin Davis, and I’m the owner and lead trainer at Davis K9 Training here in Tallahassee, FL. My training is built on three simple principals: timing, consistency, and motivation. If we get those right, everything else falls into place. My path into dog training wasn’t planned; it was something I was drawn to over and over again throughout my life. Any dog I met—friends’ dogs, family dogs, even the tough cases always ended up gravitating toward me, and I found myself trying to understand why they behaved the way they did. Eventually I decided to pursue it seriously, earning my Pet Trainer Certification through Top Tier K9 and diving deep into the world of obedience, behavior, and communication. What started as a curiosity became a calling. There’s something incredibly rewarding about watching a dog’s confidence come alive when things finally “click.” Whether it’s a stubborn puppy learning structure for the first time or an adult dog discovering calm and self-control, those moments never get old. Helping owners experience that transformation—seeing them realize they can enjoy walks again, trust their dog around guests, or simply relax in their own home—makes the work worth every minute. My programs focus is on practical, real-world obedience. Most dogs leave with solid foundational obedience in four weeks, and advanced obedience typically develops within six. I specialize in helping dogs understand exactly what’s expected of them, and I make sure owners walk away with the tools and confidence to maintain that success. My goal isn’t just to train your dog—it’s to teach you how to communicate clearly so the training lasts.

Outside of training, my world revolves around my family and our love for adventure. We’re big into flat track motorcycle racing, and spending time out at the track with my wife and our three kids is one of my favorite things in life. Our three dogs, of course, are never far behind. My relationship with Jesus also keeps me grounded, shaping the way I treat people, run my business, and care for the dogs entrusted to me. At the end of the day, I train dogs because I genuinely love it. It’s enjoyable, it’s meaningful, and it brings out the best in both the dog and the owner. If you’re looking to bring out your dog’s potential, I’d love to talk. You’re welcome to call or email anytime.
