Psyched Canine is a premier dog training and daycare business located in Sauk Prairie, Wisconsin, founded by Kimberli, a certified dog trainer with over a decade of experience. The business specializes in behavior modification and building strong, communicative relationships between dogs and their owners through personalized training. Services include one-on-one private lessons, group classes, day training, and intensive board-and-train programs tailored to puppies, adult dogs, and working breeds. Their 2000+ square foot facility includes a fenced play yard for all-day daycare, ensuring dogs receive socialization and structured training while owners are away. Kimberli’s training approach is rooted in her competitive experience with German Shepherds in IGP and PSA sports, emphasizing mutual respect, shared activities, and positive, clear communication.

Clients consistently praise their professionalism, communication, and transformative results for reactive, anxious, and high-energy dogs.

The business offers customizable programs for basic obedience, leash walking, recall, reactivity, fearfulness, and separation anxiety, with packages ranging from 2-week board-and-train to year-long follow-up support. All training is conducted at their facility, with in-home lessons available within a 30-minute radius. Their Day Train program allows owners to drop off dogs for full-day training and return to a more obedient pet. They prioritize transparency, offering daily updates during board-and-train programs and clear, structured lesson plans.
