Are You Struggling with Your Dog's Behavior?

Is your dog barking at everything, driving you to your wit's end? Maybe the constant leash pulling is turning walks in the park or around the block into a nightmare. Or perhaps you're just tired of feeling embarrassed by your dog's unruly behavior. If these situations sound familiar, or if you're looking to train your dog for a specific role like a service dog or deterrent dog, we’re here to help. 

Figuring Out Which Program Will Work For You

Start with an Evaluation

At Maximum Canine, we understand that every dog and owner has unique needs. There's no "one size fits all" in dog training. Our evaluation process is the first step in your successful journey with the Maximum Canine family. Whether your goal is to have a well-behaved house dog, a competitive sport dog, an efficient working dog, to train your dog for a specific job (e.g., service dog, deterrent dog, etc.), or to rehabilitate your dog’s problematic behaviors, our tailored approach and proven results with working dogs, pet dogs, sport dogs, shelter dogs, and dogs with behavioral issues ensure we've got you covered.

Evaluations are conducted by Maximum Canine’s owner and head trainer, Joe Secreti, or one of our certified master trainers. Joe brings over 35 years of experience in dog care, with certifications in canine fitness, nutrition, and behavior training, and extensive experience and proven results with working K9’s, pet dogs, competitive sport dogs and behavior cases.

Our training is always customized to each situation,  to create a harmonious relationship between dogs and their humans. We understand that no two dogs are alike, and we strive to create a personalized training plan with your goals and lifestyle at its core.
