OUR PROGRAMS

In-Home Dog Training & Boarding Camps

Our specialized camp programs are designed to address every aspect of your dog’s training needs, from puppy basics to advanced obedience and behavioral correction. At our camp, dogs receive 24/7 training in a nurturing and focused environment. This immersive approach builds confidence and solidifies new behaviors before we begin guiding you, the owner, through the training process. Each program is goal-oriented, not time-based, because we understand that every dog learns differently. We focus on achieving the best results tailored to your dog’s unique learning pace and needs, ensuring a happy, well-adjusted companion. Plus, our programs come with a Lifetime Support Guarantee, providing ongoing support for your dog’s lifetime. We’re always here for you and your dog, as part of the Confident K9 family.

Why We Do What We Do

If you need a dog trainer Shelby at Confident K9 is the one! We lost our 14 year old dog last March. We decided a new puppy would help so we got Millie! Well we forgot how much work puppies can be and then we found Shelby. We wanted a dog that was obedient but can still be a dog and that’s exactly what we got. She set up a training plan and did our in home training then taught us( which was actually the more challenging part for her! Haha). She was patient, kind and answered our million questions with grace. We would never be in a place we are at now with Millie without Shelby’s help and all within the comfort of our home and we didn’t have to send her off for weeks. She is such a great dog, loves outside and adventures and we can do that now with confidence! Thank you Shelby! You truly are great at what you do.
