M@cayla is our trainer. She is absolutely amazing. We were unsure about using a trainer and nervous about the cost. I can honestly say that it was the best money I have ever spent. M@cayla takes her time and is patient with us while working with us. She is available personally for any questions we have. Chesty our black lab is a new dog after 2 short weeks with her. We are so pleased with her work with him. I highly recommend to anyone, please ask for Macayla and you will have the most well behaved dog!

Absolutely blown away by the training team at Unleash Fido. Our 3 year old lab-pit rescue pup was going through a rough phase of separation anxiety, and was beginning to show aggression towards people and animals. We took her to Unleash Fido where Mac@yla made all our worries disappear. She trained our puppy over a 4 week boarding program, addressing all issues and then also teaching basic commands. Our puppy is a completely different dog, in the BEST WAY!! We could not recommend her or the team more and are so looking forward to using their graduate boarding in the future.

Excellent experience from truly awesome professionals! I dropped my two year old German Shepherd, Leo, off for their board and train bootcamp and was very apprehensive about doing so. I cannot say enough good things about this company, how they do business, and the complete professionalism I observed from all employees. Prior to completing their board and train program, Leo exhibited strong reactivity and defensive/aggressive tendencies towards other dogs and people, and only responded to commands in Japanese. While in training, Leo’s primary trainer, Macayla, stayed in strong communication with my wife and I, sent regular updates/report cards including pictures and videos, and was completely professional and accommodating to any questions or concerns we had. At the end of Leo’s training, we conducted two training sessions with Macayla to learn the new commands Leo had mastered (speaking English now!), and observed a definitive difference in how Leo behaves towards other people and animals. For anyone who may be apprehensive about enrolling your dog in this program or using Unleash Fido for any of their training or boarding services, I can absolutely attest that it was worth every cent. Unleash Fido is the only facility I have absolute faith in as a busy pet owner, and cannot recommend them enough!

Questions & Answers

What vaccines are required prior to training?

Unleash Fido | Sep 8, 2022
Unleash Fido | Sep 8, 2022

We take the health of dogs very seriously. Dogs are required to be up to date on Bordetella, Distemper, Lepto & Rabies. To limit the spread of disease, please do not come in contact with dogs outside the home for a period of two weeks prior to coming in to our facility. (If vaccines are still needed, we request curbside service at the vet)

How old should my dog be to start training?

Unleash Fido | Sep 8, 2022
Unleash Fido | Sep 8, 2022

Dogs mature at different rates. On average, puppies have to be at least 13-15 weeks old before we can do any training. We require they are a week out from their second round of puppy shots. Dogs are required to be up to date on Bordetella, Distemper, Lepto & Rabies.

Should I socialize my new dog at a dog park?

Unleash Fido | Sep 8, 2022
Unleash Fido | Sep 8, 2022

Dog parks are not for everyone. We recommend socializing your dog with dogs you know and trust. You should always supervise play and make sure both dogs are playing nicely together. Always have your new dog meet on neutral territory such as on a walk around your neighborhood.

Do you board dogs?

Unleash Fido | Sep 8, 2022
Unleash Fido | Sep 8, 2022

We board for our training clients. We have limited availability so make your reservations early, especially for Holiday boarding. We do require up-to-date vaccine records. In order to keep spread of disease limited, we also require your dog has not been in contact with other dogs outside the home for 2 weeks prior to coming in.

How do I train a dog?

Unleash Fido | Sep 8, 2022
Unleash Fido | Sep 8, 2022

At Unleash Fido, we partner with you and teach the best techniques to help your dog understand what you are asking of them. Remember, they do not speak our language, so we need to teach them in a way they understand. We are a balanced dog training company that loves to give praise, belly rubs, and treats while teaching the appropriate desired behaviors.

Why is my dog so out of control?

Unleash Fido | Sep 8, 2022
Unleash Fido | Sep 8, 2022

Your dog has not learned to self-soothe and does not know how to exhibit the expected behaviors. Through our hands-on training programs, we can teach how to have a well-bahaved, calm and polite, enjoyable to walk dog.

Why does my dog pull on the leash?

Unleash Fido | Sep 8, 2022
Unleash Fido | Sep 8, 2022

They were never taught to walk correctly. A walk should be enjoyable for both you and your dog. No one wants to walk an unruly dog. They must be taught that their behavior is unacceptable and trained on the correct way to walk.

Why doesn’t my dog listen?

Unleash Fido | Sep 8, 2022
Unleash Fido | Sep 8, 2022

Dogs need to be taught the correct behavior, and those behaviors need to be reinforced. . Dogs want to make their owners happy, but they often don’t understand what you are asking from them. At Unleash Fido, we train your dog in a language they understand.

Is a dog too old to learn new tricks?

Unleash Fido | Sep 8, 2022
Unleash Fido | Sep 8, 2022

Absolutely NOT! Dogs live in the moment. They do not dwell on the past nor do they worry about the future. Older dogs may have developed bad habits that need to be resolved and Unleash Fido can teach your old dog some new tricks.

What do I need to bring in for dog training boot camp?

Unleash Fido | Sep 8, 2022
Unleash Fido | Sep 8, 2022

We need the dog, a flat collar, a bag of dog food, and up-to-date vaccine records. We do offer medication administration if needed. If your dog has special dietary needs, owners may bring in special treats. We provided everything else that is needed. In order to keep the spread of disease limited, we also require your dog has not been in contact with other dogs outside the home for 2 weeks prior to coming in.
