The Naked Dog changed my relationship with my dog in so many positive ways. Their process requires commitment — dogs are rewarded with attention, not food — but it pays off if you stick with it. I had a large, very independent-minded, overgrown puppy who I thought was mostly untrainable. He was a sweetheart but completely lacked self-control; he would jump on strangers and other dogs, unable to contain his love. After a couple months, I still have a dog who loves everybody and everything, but he no longer pulls constantly on the leash and he knows how to down-regulate when he gets excited. He no longer put his head under the dog food as it rains down; instead he sits patiently until I tell him it's okay to eat. I feel much more in control of this well-meaning but clumsy beast, and the relational skills the Naked Dog teaches will last a lifetime.
We did the 2 week board and train with Haley and it was amazing! We couldn't leave our dog home without her howling and she lacked basic manners on and off leash and in the home. After training, she is a well-mannered dog and can walk on and off leash while being very responsive to commands, gives us space, and can be left at home without barking and howling. Haley was super easy to work with and sent us updates and photos during our dog's stay. We are so glad we sent our dog to The Naked Dog Austin!
Haley and Allegra at the Naked Dog have completely changed our lives! For the first time since we adopted our pit-mix, we can enjoy stress free walks, sleep through the night without him barking, and truly enjoy a peaceful co-existence with our dog. We adopted Harley knowing that he had some behavioral issues. He was wonderful in the house, but any time he met a new human or dog, or heard an unfamiliar noise, he would immediately become stressed, start barking, and lunging if he was on leash. After a bit of research, I knew the Naked Dog was our best choice. Our group meetings were incredibly informative (and Covid-safe) and having other dogs around while with worked with Haley and Allegra was so helpful and encouraging. Additionally, they are always available to answer random questions, and they have SO many online resources to help with specific needs. Our 1-on-1 training sessions were with Haley and can’t express our gratitude enough. The way she worked with Harley helped us understand his cues and how to communicate with him was essential to our success. It was amazing to see him so focused, happy, and responsive when she worked with him (he literally pranced around listening to every word and cue she gave!), and she taught us how to get that attention from him as well. After spending about 6 weeks in their training program, he is NEW dog. He is calm, walks in heel, listens without treats, and his behavior toward other dogs has improved immensely. The Naked Dog taught us how to understand the language of our dog - to read his micro-communications, and to communicate with him in a way that he can understand, rather than confusing him. I could sing their praises for days!
Allegra from The Naked Dog COMPLETELY reformed by pup. My wife reached out to Allegra when our pup nearly got us kicked out of our office building (pre-covid days of course) Luna was barking uncontrollably at strangers, lunging at dogs, & WAILING whenever we left her alone at home. So she was suffering from severe separation anxiety & I was really worried about her. In ONE session. Allegra came in and Luna behaved like a a different dog. Luna was following commands, walking on leash, not lunging at dogs, and super respectful. Turns out it wasn't her who needed reforming it was me. It took me some time to get it, but over 2 weeks we were able to go back in the office and she wouldn't lunge, or bark at dogs anymore. It's been about a year and half now, and Luna a model citizen. She comes when called, sits on command, stops barking when asked, and as long as I take her on her regular runs, her separation anxiety is gone! Plus people always comment on her good behavior. Thanks Allegra!
