A Better Life with Your Dog

invest in a better life together.

Feeling stuck with you and your dog? We have two amazing opportunities to help you say, I’m “Better Because of My Dog”. Whether you’d like to take a 90-day in-depth online mentorship course, or a two-day hands on workshop in California, we’ve got the program for you to go beyond the basics and establish a deep understanding of yourself and your dog.

Include Your dog in everyday life.

Unwanted behavior is frustrating for dog owners. When problems persist, we limit our dog’s involvement in our daily lives.

Our training programs help you repair and strengthen trust with your dog. When we have a healthy relationship with our dogs and communicate in a way they understand, we can eliminate behavioral struggles. They bring unlimited, inherent value and make our lives feel whole. Begin your journey towards a better life with your dog today.

Connect with your dog through one of our in-home training options.

  • Initial 2 Hour Session

    If you’re not sure where to start your dog’s training journey, we recommend an individualized, private in-home training session, which will last around 2 hours. We will work hands-on with you and your dog to address your goals for your dog. DogFit Dallas believes that the human’s training is just as crucial as the dog’s training, so we will work with your dog and provide you with the strategies you need to implement the training at home.

  • Follow Up session

    After you’ve completed an initial session or other training program, our 1-hour follow-up sessions are the perfect way to continue building upon previously introduced training strategies and addressing any ongoing or new struggles. We recommend booking your follow-up sessions with the trainer you worked with during your initial session so that we can build upon the relationship already established between your dog & our trainers.

  • Board & Train Consultation

    This initial session is for those who are interested in booking one of our MAJIC Board & Train or MAJIC Immersion programs. This session allows our trainers to work hands-on with your dog while chatting with you about your goals and concerns for a longer program. Our trainers will be able to recommend which program will best meet the needs of your dog and your family, while providing strategies you can begin implementing in the interim.

  • Foundational Workshop

    T​his three hour session will cover a wide range of foundational skills. We will introduce walking calmly on leash, place work, crate training, respecting thresholds and personal space, feeding habits, and general structure, routines, & expectations in the home. This session is best for new dog owners (puppy or adult) or anyone looking for a "reset" or fresh start, and ready to make a committed lifestyle change to improve their dog’s overall behavior.

Hi, I'm Art. I believe that dogs and humans can have a better life together.


I believe dogs should live in a world where we, the humans, create balance and harmony. That’s why I started DogFit Dallas. With a focus on behavioral training and dog psychology, we provide a community of support through each of our services, fulfilling your dog’s mental, emotional, and physical needs. We work with your dogs to correct unwanted behaviors while educating and empowering you, the owners, to be the leader your dogs need. As we begin to understand our dogs, we can be better humans FOR our dogs, and BECAUSE of our dogs.

What People Are Saying About DogFit

 

“Art's patience with both me (the biggest problem) and my furry babies has given me the relationship I want with my dogs and reduced much of the stress of a high energy, high adrenaline dog.  Not only did he go above and beyond to bring us into the fold, he created opportunities to safely challenge my dogs in social environments where they were setup to win.  It has been rewarding to come so far and know I have a support system in place for continued learning.”

- Carey, Harper, & Scout,
MAJIC Immersion Alumni

“Art gave us some simple and practical tips to help us have better walks and address some concerns. After a week of practicing Art's suggestions, we've already seen improvement, both in our dog AND in us. I'm so glad that I did my research and took the time to find DogFit; Art clearly loves what he does and cares about the animals! Cannot recommend them enough!”
- Cara & Arica,
Virtual Session Customer

“Working with DogFit Dallas was the best decision we ever made for our recently adopted two rescues. Being able to reach the dogs beyond the trauma that was endured prior to taking ownership, allowed us to connect for meaningful training, gain trust and respect, and good habits for the future. Every step of this experience exceeded our expectations.”
- Gabriella, Orsa & Lupa,
MAJIC Fundamentals Group Class Alumni

“Anne and Art truly have a gift with dogs and their MAGIC program transformed our pup. Their calm energy, compassion and genuine understanding of dogs really transcended in the training. Ruby trusted them immediately and their bond was inevitable. We cannot say enough good things about DogFit Dallas and most importantly, you get plugged into such a wonderful dog community!”
- Allison & Ruby,
MAJIC Immersion Alumni
