About Specialty Dog Training

Board and train

Specialty Dog Training runs board and train programs at its Oceanside location: a puppy boot camp for pups from 16 weeks to 11 months, obedience programs for reliable commands and leash manners, and behavioral programs for aggression, reactivity and anxiety. It also offers private training and boarding without training.

Protection and service dogs

The business trains and places personal and family protection dogs and trained family companion dogs, and offers emotional support dog training and service dog programs.

Approach

It describes a balanced method combining positive reinforcement, drive exhaustion, structured routines and fair discipline, and says it is a founding partner of Shelter to Soldier, a nonprofit that pairs trained rescue dogs with veterans.
