Common Behaviors We Can Help

Board and Train

Our board and train is an intensive program where your dog is immersed into Strutt Your Mutt’s facility.  Our first goal is to build a strong foundation with your dog to gain trust and respect.  Building a strong foundation will give your dog a huge jump start into their new, well behaved life.  In addition, we will work directly to address any behavioral issues you are struggling with.  As we work on rehabilitating your dog’s issues, we will get a better idea of your dog’s triggers and what approach is appropriate to take in order for you to successfully continue the rehab at home.  This program is effective for a dog owner who is seeking help for their dog's behavioral problems as well as an owner who just got a new dog and wants to start off on the right foot.  Your dog will come back balanced and trained giving you a chance to start your new relationship with an already well-behaved dog. 

"I've told a lot of people that the Strutt Your Mutt program works!!!  I have never experienced so much JOY with a dog before!!!  I'm singing the praises of Strutt Your Mutt to anyone who asks (and some that don't).  For me, the hardest part was trusting that their method would work and letting go of old ideas.  Once you go to work with Strutt Your Mutt and you make a commitment to work the "plan" they set up for you, you will be given all you need to have the dog you have always wanted.  The other dog owners and dogs will envy the wonderful relationship you have with your dog!"

Strutt Your Mutt offers private training packages.  We come to you or any location you'd like your dog's behaviors addressed.  We can guarantee our private training packages will give you the tools you need to create a strong foundation with your dog so you can start building the relationship of a lifetime.  By the end of your time with us, we will not only give you the tools, strategies and fulfillment formula to balance your dog and conquer your goals, but you will leave our programs with the comprehension to know how to train your next dog.

Nacho wasn't much fun to take on a walk as he consistently pulled the leash and me. He came when called most of the time unless there was something (anything) more interesting to do. He loves almost everyone and jumped right up on visitors to show them just how much.
I worked with Hilary Briggs with Strutt Your Mutt who was both knowledgeable and professional when explaining and handling Nacho. She gave me a full understanding of how to communicate and guide Nacho. As a result, Nacho is now a pleasure to walk on-leash. We are making great progress on well-mannered behavior off leash. He is much better at greeting visitors more calmly, getting good at obeying the place command, comes when called and stays until released almost every time. Fortunately, thanks to Hilary and Strutt Your Mutt, I now have the tools and knowledge to continue his training on my own. I thought we had a pretty darn good relationship to begin with but it has definitely improved more than I ever expected. He always wanted to please me. Now he knows how to please me because I know how to better communicate to him.
I highly recommend Strutt Your Mutt to any dog owner who wants a dog that is polite, pays attention and is a pleasure to be around. I had some qualms about using an e-coller. I love my dog's enthusiasm, personality and general happiness. I was afraid training with an e-coller might break his spirit or change him. My fears were groundless given the training from and philosophy of Strutt Your Mutt. He is still the joyful dog I love but he has changed. He has a new level of self-confidence that I believe comes from knowing what's expected of him and knowing how to meet those expectations.
