Cultivated Canine Dog Training is a dog training business based in Pearland, TX, offering private in-home and park-based training lessons, virtual sessions, and pet boarding services. They specialize in science-based, positive reinforcement training aligned with the LIMA (Least Intrusive, Minimally Aversive) principles, ensuring dogs learn through rewards like treats and praise. Their team, led by trainers Jay, Heather, and Brittany, provides personalized guidance for behavior modification, puppy training, separation anxiety, leash pulling, and adapting to household changes like new babies. They also offer professional K9 tracking services through The Sniff Squad, helping locate lost pets and missing persons using scent-detection dogs—though missing persons searches must be coordinated through local police. Boarding clients receive daily updates, personalized care, and accommodations for special needs like hydration or anxiety. They offer a 20% discount for rescued dogs and prioritize compassionate, individualized care for every dog.

Their training approach emphasizes teaching humans to “speak dog,” with homework and follow-up support to reinforce progress. They serve clients within their local service area and offer virtual lessons for broader accessibility.

The Sniff Squad provides tracking services for lost pets at a flat rate of $375 (with mileage reimbursement), includes a custom missing pet flyer, and delivers a personalized action plan. All missing persons tracking is offered free of charge, funded by donations.

They accept Klarna and Affirm for payment and are highly recommended by clients for their attentiveness, professionalism, and deep care for animals.
