About Cherry Hoggs

Pack-based training in Minneapolis

Cherry Hoggs is a Minneapolis dog training business run by Charlie and Frankie, built around hands-on training and pack integration. Dogs that join the pack receive ongoing training week by week, with programs for unsocialized dogs, reactive dogs and puppies. The team evaluates the dog and the owner's needs and then suggests what they think the dog needs.

Services

The Minneapolis Bootcamp offers hands-on training and pack integration, and clients describe it running Monday to Friday. Charlie also offers 90-minute in-person one-on-one sessions in Minneapolis, 60- or 90-minute virtual training sessions, and virtual nutrition sessions for dogs with health complications, allergies or special needs. Charlie also runs traveling small-group workshops, and sister companies offer eBooks and fresh dog meals.

What owners say

One owner of a reactive dog wrote that after about four weeks of boot camp "it's like he's a new dog," adding that the trainers "always explain what they worked on each day and why."
