About Aligned Canine Training
What they offer
Aligned Canine Training was founded by Sarika Blondeau and uses a relationship-based approach. Its day club, offered as an alternative to doggie day care, includes specialized programs for service dog training and behavior modification for reactivity and aggression toward people and animals. A lifestyle club runs small group classes for dogs past the beginner stage, and private sessions are tailored to each dog.
Pack walks
Weekly pack walks in Sacramento parks work on neutral socialization; once you are a client, the walks are free.
Approach
Training starts from an understanding of each dog's drive, and advanced obedience courses hold service-level expectations.
