Board & Dog Training

Do you feel like your dog is so stuck in its ways, you wish you could reset and start over? Well, I can help with that. When your dog is removed from the environment it's used to misbehaving in, it gets a chance to start fresh and learn to behave properly. Let our Dallas dog trainers help transform your dog into the obedient companion you've always wanted.

Starr Behavior Dog Training is the best dog trainer in Dallas! Their customer service is top-notch, always letting you know who’s coming to your home and even sending pictures and videos. I saw huge improvements in my 10-year-old chihuahua’s social skills. I highly recommend Joseph and Starr Behavior Dog Training to all my friends.

Joseph is incredibly knowledgeable and fantastic with dogs. We hired him for dog training for our Bernedoodle in Dallas, and the results were amazing. Before training, walking her was impossible due to constant pulling. After just two sessions, she improved significantly. Joseph uses positive reinforcement and focuses on training both the dog and the owner. Highly recommend him for dog training in Dallas!

Joseph with Starr Dog Behavior Dallas Dog Training is phenomenal. We have two dogs, and it was fascinating to see how they fed off each other’s reactions. Joseph made effective training corrections for both of our dogs, and we noticed a quick change in their behavior. We highly recommend Starr Dog Behavior for anyone looking for expert dog training in Dallas.

  • How long does it take to train a dog?
    The time it takes to train a dog depends on several factors, including the dog's age, breed, temperament, the type of dog training, and the consistency of the dog training efforts. The most common request is basic obedience dog training which includes skills such as sit, stay, come, down, leash manners. This can take anywhere in between 4 and 8 weeks. Puppies tend to learn faster, but older dogs can learn with consistency. Behavioral dog training ( aggression, fear and so on ) can take anywhere from several weeks to months depending on the severity of the behavior and commitment.
  • Do you offer in-home dog training?
    Yes, we offer in-home dog training! Joseph will travel to your home saving you the time and hassle of having to travel with a dog and sitting in the Dallas traffic for hours. ​ In home dog training is extremely efficient because by training in your dog’s familiar environment, we can address behaviors specific to your home, ensuring more effective and lasting results. Whether it’s basic obedience, behavior training, or advanced training, we customize each session to suit your dog’s unique needs and your lifestyle.
  • Do you offer private sessions or group classes?
    We offer both private dog training sessions and group classes to fit your dog's needs. Private sessions provide one-on-one attention, allowing us to tailor the training to your dog's specific behavior and your goals. Group dog training classes are great for socialization and obedience training in a controlled environment with other dogs. Whether you prefer personalized instruction or a structured group setting, we have a program that works for you.
  • What vaccines does my dog require for your services?
    Before bringing your dog to our facility it’s essential to ensure they are up-to-date on their vaccinations for their health and the safety of other dogs. Rabies Distemper Parvovirus Adenovirus Parainfluenza Bordetella
  • What is the best age to start training a puppy?
    The best age to start puppy training is as early as 7–8 weeks old, when they are still young and impressionable. At this stage, puppies are like sponges, eager to learn and form positive associations. Starting training early helps establish good habits and builds a strong bond between you and your puppy. However, dog training can begin at any age; it may just take more time and patience with older dogs.
  • What is the most effective way to potty train my dog?
    Establish a routine by feeding at the same times each day and taking your dog outside frequently, especially after meals, naps, and playtime. Use a designated potty spot and reward them with praise and treats immediately when they go in the right place. Supervise them indoors and use a crate or small area when unsupervised to prevent accidents, as dogs avoid soiling their sleeping space.
  • Can older dogs be trained, and how does it differ from training puppies?
    Yes, older dogs can absolutely be trained, and they often learn well with consistency and patience. However, training an older dog differs from training puppies in a few key ways due to their maturity, habits, and life experiences .Training older dogs is very achievable and often rewarding, as their maturity and bond with their owner make them eager to please.

"My commitment is to educate the world about what a dog needs instinctually while promoting strong and balanced leadership so that we can connect and communicate effectively. I believe that dog psychology can build anyone's relationship with their dog for the better and create a positive environment for them to flourish in"
