What we help Frisco families with
Frisco is growing and changing. Construction sites and sounds, increasing traffic and new parks and amenities change the skills our dogs need to be safe, happy and comfortable.

Your Frisco Training Team
Our team holds credentials through the Academy for Dog Trainers, IAABC, CCPDT, Victoria Stillwell Academy and Fear Free. We'll match you with the person whose background fits your dog's situation — not whoever happens to be free.

Common Questions
Do you come to my house in Frisco?
Yes. In-home private sessions are how most of our Frisco cases start.
Where are your group classes, and how far is that from Frisco?
2257 Ridgeview Dr., Plano, TX 75025 — just south of the Frisco line, roughly 10 minutes from central Frisco. Wednesday evenings, puppy socials and pattern games at 6:00pm and manners at 7:30pm.
​
Do you offer puppy training in Frisco?
Yes, both ways. Puppy classes run at our Ridgeview Drive location and we also do private in-home puppy sessions. Most families do some of both.
​
My dog has bitten someone. Will you still work with us?
Yes. Our behavior consultants handle fear, reactivity, resource guarding and aggression regularly, including dogs with a bite history. We'll be honest about what's realistic and we won't judge you for asking. If you're trying to understand how serious the bite was, our dog bite scale guide explains the six levels.
​
How much does dog training cost in Frisco?
Private sessions are $155 or $180 per hour depending on the experience level your case needs. Group classes are priced separately. Full details on our pricing page, and we'll talk options through on your free call.
​
Do you use e-collars or prong collars?
No. Never. We teach your dog to respond to your voice and hand signals, not to tools that work through discomfort.
​
Do you offer training in Spanish?
Sí. Krystal Rivera, one of our trainers, is bilingual and works with families in English or Spanish.
​
Are you actually based in Frisco?
Nicole lives in Frisco and currently serves on the City of Frisco Animal Advisory Board. Our training facility on Ridgeview Drive is just south of the Frisco line — under 10 minutes from her front door.
