About Adventure Dog Unlimited

Who they are

Adventure Dog Unlimited is run by Sarah and Kaitlin, both named on their own About page, and the

business's Instagram bio – embedded on its home page – gives its location as Corning, NY. The pair

write that the company began in 2017 when they met working at a doggy daycare, and that between

them they have more than ten years of work with dogs. Alongside training they design and sell

handmade biothane collars and leads, which they ship nationally.

What they train for

The premise is in the name: training aimed at the walk to the coffee shop, the brewery patio and

the trip to the mountains rather than at a formal obedience picture. The site puts it as "we teach

you the skills you need to be able to continue training once we're gone," and the training is

delivered in the client's own home. The intake form names the behaviors they work on – loose-leash

walking, recall, jumping, counter surfing, chewing, house accidents, puppy nipping, leash

reactivity, dog reactivity, resource guarding and crate anxiety, among others – and the training

goals it offers include off-leash adventures, confidence work and coexisting with other animals.

What they do not take

Worth knowing before calling: the training page states plainly that they are "currently not taking

on any severe separation anxiety or aggression cases." Few businesses publish their limits that

clearly, and for those two presenting problems an owner should look elsewhere in the region.

Prices

The menu is short and fully priced. An initial consultation to go over problem behaviors and goals

is $30. A one-hour in-home lesson is $75, and a package of five in-home lessons taken weekly or

every other week is $350. A one-to-one training intensive, in which a trainer collects the dog for two hours

to work a specific goal, is also $75; it runs Fridays and Saturdays only and is open to clients who

have already completed at least two in-home lessons.

Credentials

Kaitlin writes on the About page that she has been working toward Certified Advanced Canine

Training Professional and Certified Canine Training and Behavior Specialist designations through

the Animal Behavior Institute. That is her own account and is recorded as a claim; the Animal

Behavior Institute is not a registry this directory checks, and neither owner appears in the CCPDT

or APDT New York directories.
