Professional Dog Training with Ebonheart's K-Nine Coaching!

 Ebonheart is more than a breeder — we are professional dog trainers dedicated to helping owners experience the joy of living with a well-trained, confident canine companion.  Our dogs have earned multiple titles in dog sports, performed in stage productions, appeared on live television, and participated in film projects. Now, you can access the same high-quality training methods our own dogs have benefited from — at very affordable rates.  We offer a variety of training packages designed to help you and your dog succeed together. Whether your goal is basic obedience, behavior modification, advanced tricks, or competition-level skills, we have a package that fits your needs.  Imagine traveling without worry, bringing your well-mannered best friend along for the adventure instead of leaving them home or boarding them. No more stress about how your dog will handle new family members, visitors, or unfamiliar dogs. Our training helps dogs live fuller, calmer, and more fulfilling lives right at your side.  Start your journey today with our exceptional training programs at excellent prices. 

 

Five Packages to choose from

We offer five thoughtfully designed training packages to fit a variety of goals, experience levels, and lifestyles. Each package provides well thought-out, thorough guidance, but they are intentionally structured for clients with different needs and desired outcomes. Whether you're looking to build a strong foundation, refine skills, or work through specific challenges, we have an option that meets you where you are and helps you move forward with confidence.  Across our offerings, clients receive a comprehensive training experience that can include obedience work, trick training, behavior modification, as well as guidance on nutrition and exercise. In addition to our packages, we also offer professional training sessions for dogs during their boarding stays in our home.

Single Session Package

This package gives one session to the client as a trial or payment plan for clients interested in trying the training out before committing to further sessions.  The client will receive an hour of private training for $50.

Group Classes

 

Our Group Class Package offers six structured obedience training sessions, each lasting one hour, for a total of six hours of instruction, priced at $175. These classes are designed to help dogs and their owners build reliable obedience skills in a supportive, social environment. Sessions are scheduled as needed once three or more clients have enrolled, creating a collaborative learning experience that allows dogs to practice commands and manners around other well-behaved pups. Puppies as young as 8 weeks old are welcome to join, provided they are up to date on vaccinations.

Clients who book the same group class with a friend or family member receive $25 off their package, making it a great opportunity to train together. While group classes are excellent for socialization and foundational obedience, this package is not suitable for dogs displaying aggression toward people or other dogs. Each session focuses on reinforcing basic commands, improving leash manners, and fostering good behavior in a positive, structured setting that benefits both dogs and their handlers.

Beginner Package

Our Beginner Training Package is designed for those looking to establish a strong foundation with their dog through basic obedience and everyday manners. This package offers comprehensive guidance for owners who want to focus on the most essential skills, helping their dog learn how to behave appropriately in the home and in simple public settings. It’s an ideal starting point for building clear communication, confidence, and a positive training relationship between you and your dog.

This program focuses primarily on on-leash commands and introduces dogs to structure, boundaries, and mild manners training. Clients will receive step-by-step instruction on teaching and reinforcing basic behaviors such as walking politely on a leash, responding to simple cues, and improving overall attentiveness. It’s a practical, approachable option for those who want reliable, foundational skills without diving into more advanced or intensive training.

 

Intermediate Package

Our Intermediate Training Package is designed for dog owners ready to build on foundational skills and move toward real-world reliability. This program includes ten structured, one-hour obedience sessions—totaling 7.5 hours of personalized, hands-on instruction. Each session is tailored to your dog’s individual needs, focusing on strengthening core commands, improving focus and responsiveness, and developing better behavior both at home and in public settings.  For households with multiple dogs, we offer the option to include a second dog for an additional $100, provided a second handler is present. This allows both dogs to progress together while still receiving the attention and guidance needed for success. Priced at $375 ( for one dog), this package delivers a balanced, results-driven approach to training that supports long-term confidence and communication between you and your dog.

Ultimate Package

Our Ultimate Training Package is our most comprehensive program, offering 15 in-depth training sessions for clients who are ready to pursue advanced goals with their dog. This package is an excellent fit for those interested in competing in dog sports, working through more serious behavioral challenges such as aggression or anxiety, or preparing a dog for therapy work. Each session is thoughtfully structured to build reliability, precision, and confidence, while addressing the unique needs of both dog and handler at a higher level.

This package does offer a thorough level of training for therapy work, helping dogs develop the temperament, obedience, and consistency needed to succeed in those environments. It is important to note that therapy work is not the same as service dog training. While service dog training can be incorporated into this program, reaching the level required for a fully trained, dependable service dog may require additional sessions beyond the initial 15. As with all of our offerings, clients receive well-rounded guidance that may include advanced obedience, behavior modification, engagement work, and lifestyle support such as nutrition and exercise—ensuring a balanced, capable, and confident canine partner.  Priced at $525 for a single dog, this package can also have a second dog included from the household for an additional $100.                                      

 

Board & Train

We understand that leaving your dog in someone else’s care is never an easy decision. That’s why we’ve built our boarding kennel around one simple promise: to care for every dog as if they were our own. From consistent routines and attentive supervision to plenty of affection and individualized attention, we focus on creating a safe, comfortable, and low-stress environment where your dog can truly feel at home. Your pet’s well-being—both physical and emotional—is always our top priority.

As a growing business, we are continually expanding both our boarding space and the range of services we offer. We’re thoughtfully building our facilities and refining our approach as we welcome new clients, ensuring that every improvement is made with the dogs’ comfort and happiness in mind. This means we’re not just maintaining standards—we’re actively raising them, one step at a time.

With every new dog we have the privilege to care for, we reinvest into our kennel—adding more features, enhancing our spaces, and introducing new “bells and whistles” that elevate the boarding experience. Our goal is to grow alongside our community, creating a place where pet owners feel confident and dogs feel genuinely cared for. When you choose us, you’re not just finding a place for your dog to stay—you’re becoming part of a kennel that is always striving to do better.

 

Board and Train agreement form

 

Our training philosophy is rooted in a balanced method that prioritizes clear communication, trust, and the overall wellbeing of each dog. We thoughtfully incorporate praise, play, food motivation, and, when appropriate, training collars as an additional tool to help dogs better understand what is being asked of them. These tools are never a shortcut or a replacement for connection—they are simply one piece of a much larger picture, carefully chosen and tailored to each individual dog. While training tools are often misunderstood due to misuse and misinformation seen on social media, when used correctly and responsibly, they provide clarity, reduce confusion, and help dogs find confidence in knowing how to succeed.

What matters most to us is the life each dog gets to live. We have seen firsthand how the right training approach—especially when tools are used properly alongside praise, treats, and play—can truly change the outcome of a dog’s future. In some cases, it has been the difference between a family keeping their beloved companion, facing the heartbreak of rehoming, or even behavioral euthanasia. That is something we never take lightly. We stand behind our methods and the results they produce when clients follow through with guidance, because we know how powerful and life-changing the right approach can be.

We welcome clients to meet our own dogs and see firsthand the results of our training. The confidence, stability, and calm behavior they exhibit in both training and everyday life reflect the care, structure, and balance we bring into every program. Our goal is not just obedience, but to produce well-mannered, confident dogs who can fully be part of their families’ lives—at home, in public, and in every moment in between.
