We've trained 800+ dogs in Knoxville with a 4.9-star rating across 700+ Google reviews.

Absolutely. We specialize in aggressive dog behavior modification including dog-on-dog aggression, stranger aggression, resource guarding, and bite history cases.

Every case begins with a comprehensive behavior evaluation. Call (865) 383-3647 for a free consultation.
Is e-collar training safe for my dog? ▼
Yes, when used correctly by trained professionals. Modern e-collars have 100+ stimulation levels, and most dogs work at levels 5-15, which feels like a gentle vibration similar to a TENS unit. Our e-collar methodology is the same system used by US Military and Secret Service K9 units. Dogs actually get excited when they see their e-collar because they associate it with training, treats, and going outside. Over 800 Knoxville dogs have been trained with this method with a 4.9-star satisfaction rating.
At what age should I start puppy training in Knoxville? ▼
We recommend starting puppy training between 8-16 weeks old during your puppy's critical socialization window. Our AKC S.T.A.R. Puppy program starts at just $400 for 6 lessons, and puppy board & train is available starting at $850 for 1 week. Puppy consultations are only $100. Early training prevents future behavior problems and is much more effective than correcting bad habits later. Call (865) 383-3647 to get started.
