What is the better together club?

Welcome to Community-Based Training for Dogs & Humans.

Better Together Club is a small-group, community-based dog training experience designed to support real life scenarios.

This is a space for dogs who need structure without overwhelm and for humans who want guidance, connection, and a calm place to learn together. No pressure. Just intentional training, regulation, and community.

Why "Better Together”? Because dogs don’t exist in isolation — and neither do we. Training works best when dogs feel safe, humans feel supported, and learning happens in community.

01

WHAT IS IT?

Better Together Club blends structured training, neutral social exposure, and nervous-system regulation in a supportive group setting.

Each session focuses on:

  • Real-life skills you can use every day

  • Calm focus around other dogs and people

  • Building confidence without flooding

  • Strengthening the relationship between you and your dog

This isn’t a dog park.
And it’s not a high-energy obedience class.

It’s thoughtful, grounded work — done together.

02

WHO’S IT FOR?

Better Together Club is a great fit for:

  • Dogs who get overstimulated in traditional obedience based group classes

  • Dogs working through minor reactivity, anxiety, or overexcitement

  • Dogs who need practice being neutral around others

  • Humans who want support, education, and community

Whether you’re early in your training journey or refining existing skills, this space meets you where you are.

03

WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT

Each session includes:

  • Small, intentionally capped group size

  • Guided setups for regulation and success

  • Real-time coaching and education

  • Space for questions, learning, and connection

  • Sessions are structured, and adaptable with a focus on progress, not performance.

WHAT HAPPENS AFTER?

After select sessions, attendees are invited to join for coffee and conversation at:

☕️ Waxwing Bakery & Cafe

This is always optional and always relaxed.
Because training is about relationships, and community matters.

You might be wondering…

  • Yes. To participate in Better Together Club, you must:

    Have completed training with me previously or

    Be a current or past Dog Camp client

    This ensures all dogs and handlers have a shared foundation and helps keep sessions calm, safe, and productive.

  • Better Together Club is not a beginner obedience class. It’s best suited for dogs who already have some foundational skills and are ready to practice calm focus and regulation around others.

  • Yes — as long as your dog has worked with me before. Sessions are structured to support regulation, space, and neutrality rather than forced interaction.

    • Flat collar or harness

    • Standard leash (no retractables)

    • A few high-value treats

    • Water for your dog

    • Comfortable shoes for you

  • I’m always happy to help you decide. Just reach out and we can talk through whether Better Together Club is appropriate for you and your dog.
