We will work hands-on with you and your dog to address your goals for your dog.

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.

    This initial session is for those who are interested in booking our Board & Train program. This session allows our trainers to work hands-on with your dog while chatting with you about your goals & concerns for a more comprehensive program.

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!”
