In-home lessons in Round Rock

I come to you. We train where life happens.

Most problems show up at home and around the neighborhood, so that is where we train. Pulling on the leash, jumping on guests, barking at the window, ignoring you at the park.

Once the basics hold at home, we take them out. A busy trail or a park full of dogs is where a dog you can trust gets built.

Places to practice in Round Rock

Once the basics hold at home, we take them somewhere real, like

What owners can do now.

Reba, a red hound, sound asleep on a paw print blanket after a long day out
“We took Reba to her first 4th of July party and she did amazingly well. She stayed on leash, we did all the sits and downs, and she laid down with treats on her paws in the middle of a group of people talking and holding food. Then she slept about four hours straight when we got home.”
Trey and Britney K., Reba's owners
Kristen out on a rooftop deck in her power chair with Millie, her golden retriever, sitting calmly beside the wheel
“Millie sat through her first hour long HOA meeting and was a perfect princess.”

Meet Brady

A kinder way to train, built from real-world results.

Brady started New Direction after seeing too many good dogs handed harsh tools and too many owners told to dominate their best friend. Every program here runs on trust and reinforcement. No shock collars, no prong collars, no fear. The result is a confident dog and a relationship you can trust.

Do you offer board and train near Round Rock?+

Yes. The 2-week board and train is $1,850. Your dog trains with me every day for two weeks, with at least 1 lesson before the stay and 2 after so it carries over at home.

Do you use shock or prong collars?+

No. Every program is reinforcement-based. No shock collars, no prong collars, no fear. Your dog learns that the choice you want is the one that pays.

What if my dog is reactive or nervous?+

That is some of the most common work I do. Barking, lunging, and fear get a steady, kind plan that moves at your dog's pace.
