About The Dog Pros

The Dog Pros runs a training facility on two acres on Brawley School Road in Mooresville. The site describes the property as having outdoor and indoor training areas, a separate fenced exercise yard and a 1,200 sq ft climate-controlled building for indoor sessions.

The three published tracks

The service nav is short and specific: behavior modification, obedience training and protection training. Behavior modification covers aggression, housebreaking, jumping, play biting, stealing items, leash pulling, barking, chewing, mounting, digging, rushing through doors, separation anxiety and invisible-fence training. Basic obedience is listed as place, sit, down, wait, loose-leash walking and off-leash recall; advanced obedience adds off-leash obedience and walking, return to heel and stop in motion. Protection training is described as producing dogs reliable in the home and around the family, and the site states that every dog is evaluated first to decide whether it is a candidate.

How a program is chosen

The entry point is a free, no-obligation evaluation: the dog is dropped off in the morning and collected in the afternoon while the team assesses temperament and trainability and recommends a program and length. There is an in-kennel residential program, which the site recommends particularly for aggressive dogs and behavior-modification cases, a day-train program in which the dog comes to the facility twice a week on a fixed weekly pattern, and private lessons at the facility.
