    Sophie enjoying the outdoors!

    I could not be happier with my decision to board and train my little fear/reactive dog, Sophie with Stand Proud. They have helped me transform my fearful dog to a more confident and less reactive to other dogs. They offer group classes and pack walks which have been so helpful to help train me. They really care about dogs and their clients and are available to answer any questions.

    I could write few paragraphs but I will keep it short. Wow. We are really impressed with the quality, patience, and compassion Brandon puts on with his company. We enjoy the 1 on 1 trainings, and Timber enjoys the group class most. If you need someone who is patient, understanding, and willing to work with YOU and YOUR lifestyle, reach out. Thanks, Rachel and Mason

    Stand Proud is amazing! I rescued my sweet boy Chance from the Contra Costa county pound on his Euthanasia date. He is a wonderful boy but he is very high energy and quite strong. He had a problem with reactivity towards other dogs. It was very difficult to walk him. I have never done a board and train before and was very nervous to send my baby away! Danielle and Debbie were wonderful and sent me multiple pictures and updates! When we picked him up one of his trainer's Ian spent an hour with us showing everything he learned and teaching us how to continue his training at home. It was obvious Chance was treated very well as he was very happy and affectionate towards Ian. He is now a calmer, happier, very obedient boy! He no longer lunges and barks at other dogs passing by. I highly recommend! Thank you Stand Proud!

    We love Stand Proud Dog Training!! Our black lab Gunner did their board and train program which was awesome, and now we're working on a few little things with follow up lessons. Got to check out this new facility at our last lesson and wow! Everything was so clean, friendly staff members, and the atmosphere felt very inviting. Our lesson went phenomenal and we're so proud of Gunner for the progress he's been making with the help of our trainer Austin! They give us the tools to set Gunner up for success and it really shows during the lessons. We can't thank Stand Proud Dog Training enough!! 10/10 recommend!

    A much more confident Sophie

    I've love this program. Brandon and Danielle are amazing!!! After a training program, you are a life time member & can always make appointments if you need a little more help (free). Also, they board dogs. They have enough space that it's almost impossible for them to be full. I had a last minute overnight, so I decided to see if they had room, and they did!!! Plus, their pricing is more than reasonable. Last time I boarded Sofie @ a different kennel, I to pay extra for them to play or walk her. I worried about her the whole 6 days I was gone. Believe me, that is not an issue with Stand Proud. I highly, 100%, recommend Stand Proud & feel so blessed to have found them for my Sofie.

    The best place to take your dog, period! My girl gets crazy excited when we pull into the parking lot. I think that's a pretty good sign of how well she's treated for training, day play, and overnight boarding. Highly recommend!

    We started having issues with our 1.5 year old bulldog after we brought our newborn baby home. Chubby started to feel more like a disruptive roommate as opposed to our loving dog. In just 4 home sessions Austin helped us put an end to Chubby's rowdy, mouthy behavior. I have so much more trust in my dog around my baby, and that's priceless. Austin also helped us develop Chubby's walking skills, so we can all go on walks as a family now with a stroller, something that wasn't possible before.

    We are so incredibly happy and thankful for the team at Stand Proud and all of the work and support they offer. It has been close to a year since we reached out to Stand Proud, and it was out of desperation. One of our dogs, Luna, (she was 11 months at the time) was aggressive toward our older lab, after 9 months of no issues. We did not know where to start or what to do, so I just started googling dog training in Reno. After looking at different places online and contacting a couple, we decided to go with Stand Proud. Luna went for board and train since we needed fast and effective results. She was originally scheduled for a 3 week say and after working with her and talking things over with us, she got bumped up to a 4 week stay. She did great when she was picked up and was on her best behavior, but then she got home and showed aggression toward our lab once again. We reached out to Stand Proud and told them what had happened and they sent a trainer to our home to help us get through the transition. Not only did Austin work with Luna, he also worked with our other dog so that they could live together and get along. He then worked with her and my parents dog, and even brought his dog for training with her. Training continued almost weekly for months after she was home to help her become her best self. Stand Proud training does not end when you pick up the dog, they keep working with the dog and you to continue the training, they even offer free group classes. This is what sets Stand Proud apart from anyone else. I am not sure any other training facility in Reno would have come to our house to work with us after picking her up from training. Luna is doing great and gets along with her sister now, she still goes back for boarding when we travel and loves it there. I honestly do not know what we would have done without Brandon, Danielle, Austin, and the stand proud pack. If you are looking for any type of dog training this is where you need to go!

    Stand proud dog training is organized and so knowledgeable! I took my one year old Aussie to start the board and train program and I am amazed by her progress. Brandon gave us the tools and the confidence to ensure Indie leads a structured, safe, and full life. I appreciate the one-on-one training classes and the group classes. The best part about the group classes is that they are in public, giving you practice with real word situations. I highly recommend the board and train to get a jump start on progress with your pup!

    Where do I start!? Casey and Brandon at Stand Proud K9 are awesome and I can safely say they helped transformed the quality of life of our entire family. We brought in our 9 month old pup Bear (supposedly a 50b Aussie mix who turned out to be a 90lb GSD/Malamute mix!) to Stand Proud to help us with a handful of concerns. 1) I am a big hiker/trail runner and I needed Bear to be reliable on trail when he is off leash. To come when called, to stand down when encountering others on trail, and to not chase exciting distractions like rabbits and squirrels. 2) My husband and step sons were not familiar with dogs and didn't understand dog dynamics and they, as well as Bear, needed some guidance and direction and 3) Bear is like all the males in my family - large, in charge, independent, a bit naughty, but fiercely loyal with a huge heart. Bear needed some rules and boundaries to make life smoother for us all. We enrolled in a 4 session private lesson package and boy are we glad we did. These four sessions changed our home life completely! Bear learned to stay, sit, and most importantly to "place". He began to understand who rules the roost so to speak and to obey commands. We all gained confidence in how to handle Bear and to communicate what we needed from him. In return, Bear grew calm, at ease, confident, less skittish, less fearful, and much more comfortable in all circumstances. With the help of Stand Proud I can now take Bear on hikes and runs with confidence knowing that Bear will respond to me summoned. Additionally, my "I don't like dogs" husband has become a dog-lover who is confident in his ability to handle and command Bear. Their relationship is lightyears improved. We owe it all to Casey and Brandon at Stand Proud. We are grateful to have found you! HIghly recommended if you are looking to help your pup bet the best it can be and to ease the stress of living with an anxious/aggressive/barky/needy/out of control dog.

    Excellent job holding place on her cot

    My pup spent most Sunday at On-Command, playing his heart out. He was stuck at most of the weekdays…read moreand was indoors most of Saturday; so, I figured I owed him some fun time at his favorite play-place: On-Command. I dropped him off at half past ten and didn't pick him up until 3:30. I asked the gal at the front desk if he was able to play with anyone and she said yes, my pup pretty much played with every dog at daycare. When we got back home, it was apparent my pup had a blast because he was so mellow and low-key tired; he was fast asleep after dinner.

    We went on a spring break trip and had our dog boarded for 12 days. I had some concerns because it…read morewas the first time he'd be staying alone, with our other dog passing away in November. He had been acting out of sorts at daycare too. I expressed my worries to Heidi upon check in and she understood he was still going through a tough time without his buddy. She told me she would indicate that he was a special needs dog, who may need some extra care and attention. I really appreciated her going out of the way to put my mind at ease for our trip. I checked in a few days into our vacay and was told he was not eating like normal and asked if they could try some chicken broth and pumpkin to encourage him to eat. I told the staff on the phone that he had been more finicky with eating even with new wet foods. They would keep an eye on him and let me know if anything changed. I got a call from the staff the day before pick up and was told my dog hadn't eaten in two days but energy at daycare was normal. They offered to try and hand-feed him. When I picked him up, they said they were able to get him to eat some so he must've been getting lonely and wanted extra attention. I have really appreciate all of their staff's help in getting our dog adjusted to the loss of our other dog and for their support and understanding during his first solo stay. Thank you!
