Canine Einstein

Canine Einstein offers a variety of training programs and services. Group classes are designed for urban dogs, covering basic and intermediate manners, patio skills, tricks for confidence, and urban dog skills. The “You Have a Friend- Reactive Dog Program” combines games and training to help dogs tolerate other dogs and people, with graduates invited to monthly group hikes.

Private Gym Rentals provide an enrichment-focused space for dogs who prefer not to socialize or are shy, offering confidence-building and off-leash exploration. The Puppy Program focuses on proper socialization and training for well-adjusted pups, combining classes, private training, and puppy playgroups.

The “Train and Play” program is for dogs needing more than a walk but who are overstimulated by traditional daycare, offering training and enrichment in small groups. Personalized Training involves certified trainers working with guardians to develop management and training plans for communication issues. Supervised Playgroups are small, trainer-supervised sessions for dogs of similar ages, ideal for social dogs who get overstimulated easily.
