Shaye
Sales Manager & Trainer
About Shaye
Hi there! I’m Shaye — a teacher, stepmom, and proud fiancée who’s happiest when surrounded by family, laughter, and a couple of wagging tails. My two Cocker Spaniel puppies keep life exciting (and a little bit muddy), but I wouldn’t have it any other way.
I earned my degree in Animal Science and Agriculture Education, which reflects my lifelong love of animals and the outdoors. I grew up on a family farm, where caring for dogs — from hardworking hunting dogs to beloved pets — was simply part of everyday life. Those early experiences shaped who I am today and deepened my appreciation for the bond between people and animals.
When I’m not teaching or spending time with my family, you’ll probably find me with a crochet hook in one hand and a good book in the other. I believe in slowing down, finding joy in simple things, and making meaningful connections — whether that’s in the classroom, at home, or out on a walk with my pups.
David
Trainer
About David
Hey there! I’m David, born and raised right here in Virginia. I’m a proud dad of four wonderful daughters and a lifelong dog lover. I’ve been training dogs for over 3 years, and it’s truly a perfect fit — I love helping people build trust and communication with their dogs.
When I’m not training, you’ll probably find me hunting, fishing, or at the racetrack. I’ve always loved being outdoors, working with my hands, and solving problems. Training dogs lets me combine all those passions into one rewarding purpose — helping dogs and their owners succeed together.
Billy
Trainer
About Billy
Hey I’m Billy or Bam, whichever you prefer. I’m native to northern Virginia. I got into dog training about 3.5 years ago, and Tank was actually who guided me towards this career. I always had a passion for animals and always liked to teach people and, with dog training, it combined two of my passions. I hope to give you and your dog an amazing life through obedience and understanding of your dogs needs with proper communication and guidance. Let’s make your dog the envy of the neighborhood together!
Erick
Trainer
About Erick
Hi I’m Erick Deleon, I’ve loved dogs for as long as I can remember, and I’ve been lucky enough to have them by my side my entire life—including my current pack of three amazing pups. I truly believe dogs are man’s best friend, and my dream is to one day open a sanctuary where I can help rehabilitate and give deserving dogs a second chance at their best life. I’m passionate about training pups to become confident, happy, and well-mannered companions. When I’m not working with dogs, you’ll find me hiking, enjoying the outdoors, or diving into some PC gaming—because every great dog trainer needs a little tech time too.

Frequently Asked Questions
What kinds of training programs do you offer?
We provide three structured programs designed to meet your dog’s stage and your goals: a foundational Basic Obedience package, a more advanced Basic + Advanced package for off‑leash & real‑world reliability, and our immersive 14‑Day Board & Train program. Each one is personalized for your dog’s unique personality, behavior and your household needs.
Where does the training take place and how is it delivered?
Most of our training happens in‑home and in real‑world environments—not just in a fenced yard or a class. We believe true obedience comes when the dog learns where it matters most: during walks, in the home, around distractions. Our Facebook videos show “real‑world focus” in action.
How do you address behavioral issues and ensure lasting results?
We’re experienced at working with everything from simple obedience (Sit, Stay, Come) to more complex behaviours like reactivity, barking, impulse control and leash pulling. We emphasise real‑world proofing, meaning your dog performs commands reliably under distraction. And we back all programs with lifetime support for you and your dog.
How do I get started and what happens after the program?
To begin, we’ll talk with you about your dog’s history, your goals, lifestyle and current challenges. Then we’ll choose the right package and plan a custom schedule. After the program ends, you’ll receive a turnover session (for Board & Train) and ongoing access to support, guidance and alumni options so your dog’s progress doesn’t stop when the program does.
