CoDa Canine is a dog training business based in Gatesville, TX, offering personalized training solutions for dogs of all ages, sizes, and breeds. Founded by Madison Davis and Brooke, the team provides board and train programs, private lessons, day training, puppy-specific programs, and socialization days. They emphasize structure, communication, and management in their training philosophy, using positive, intentional methods tailored to each dog’s temperament. Their 7-acre fenced, climate-controlled facility ensures supervised, high-quality care during boarding and day training. They also offer free consultations to build customized training plans and focus on teaching owners how to maintain progress at home. CoDa serves clients in Waco, Woodway, Hewitt, Temple, and Ft. Hood areas, and their team includes certified trainers with backgrounds in obedience, behavior modification, protection sports, and detection training.

They do not use e-collars indiscriminately and prioritize sensitivity to fearful or shy dogs, making them a trusted choice for owners seeking gentle, effective training. Additional services include puppy socialization, group classes (coming soon), and pet boarding.

Clients consistently praise the trainers for their patience, knowledge, and genuine care for both dogs and owners, noting significant improvements in behavior, confidence, and human-dog communication.
