We Have The Time – Most people work full-time and don’t have the required time to spend hours training their dog everyday.

Less Stressful For You – Foundational work is not only tedious but it also requires many repetitions and a set of skills that is only gained from years of experience working with dogs.

Exposure – Your dog will be safely exposed and trained around new people and other dogs.

WHY CHOOSE OUR PROGRAM?

In Home – Your dog will come stay with us in a structured home environment with our family, not a stressful kennel, or boarding facility.

Quality Training – We keep the number of dogs that we have in for training at one time very low compared to other companies nearby, and pride ourselves in the quality of our work, training, and the care that we provide to each dog while they are with us.

Real World Training – All of our board and train dogs while under our care are trained in real life experiences and immersed into our everyday lives. Every single interaction with them is a training opportunity.

We want your dog to not only enjoy their overall training experience, but also be happy working with us and for you willingly upon the completion of their stay with us. We have never sent home a dog that we didn’t feel was going be successful.

AGGRESSION REHAB

Are you struggling with an aggressive dog? Is it causing you stress, embarrassment, or even a little fear? You are not alone. Many dog owners experience aggression issues with their pets. But here’s the good news: aggression in dogs is not a life sentence, it’s a behavior that can be managed. Here at Elevated Canine Bakersfield, we offer professional aggression rehabilitation services that will help transform your aggressive pet into a calm and reliable companion.

Aggression in dogs is often misunderstood. It is typically an outward expression of an underlying issue such as insecurity, fearfulness, dominance, territorial disputes, or a lack of socialization and exposure. Understanding the root cause of your dog’s aggressive behavior is also the first step towards rehabilitation.

At Elevated Canine Bakersfield, we believe that every dog deserves a chance to be understood and helped. Our team of professionals specialize in behavior modification for aggression. Utilizing modern dog training techniques, we create a positive, impactful, and lasting change in your companion’s behavior, something that is just impossible to achieve in a 2 – 3 week board and train like other companies nearby might offer. We take our time to build trust with your dog and go at their pace during the learning and training process during their stay with us.

BEHAVIOR MODIFICATION

At Elevated Canine of Bakersfield we take on behavioral challenges headfirst with our refined behavior modification techniques. Our training philosophy is deeply rooted in compassionate, scientifically-backed strategies aimed at helping your canine companion truly become the best version of themselves.

Behavior modification is much more than just addressing undesirable behaviors and actions; it’s about understanding the ‘why’ behind your dog’s behavior. This involves digging deeper into their psychology, experiences, upbringing, environment, and genetic predisposition to make sense of their actions. It’s a long-term solution that is designed to address the root cause of the problem rather than simply just masking the symptoms.
