About All Dogs Unleashed
All Dogs Unleashed specializes in results-driven obedience training for dogs of all breeds. Their unique approach emphasizes teaching dogs to self-correct, promoting lasting behavior change - even when the owner isn’t present. The signature 2-week Board and Train program is conducted in a structured environment where dogs learn essential commands and behavior control techniques. After completing the program, the All Dogs Unleashed team works directly with the dog’s family to ensure everyone feels confident in reinforcing the training at home.
All Dogs Unleashed also provides premium boarding services, featuring spacious, climate-controlled kennels with daily sanitation, soft bedding, soothing music, and attentive, loving care.
Values & History
In 2007, childhood friends Brian Claeys and Travis Lux transformed their shared passion for dogs into a business venture. Drawing from their backgrounds, Claeys from the corporate tech world and Lux from roofing, they combined their skills and love for canines to establish All Dogs Unleashed.
What set All Dogs Unleashed apart was its unique training methodology. Instead of traditional in-home sessions, they developed a 2-week Board and Train program conducted in structured facilities. This approach emphasized teaching dogs to self-correct, ensuring lasting behavioral changes even when owners weren't present.
Industry Performance
The pet industry is booming! There are currently around 90 million dogs living in households in the US. The US Bureau of Labor Statistics predicts the animal care and service worker industry will grow by 16% over the next decade, an increase much higher than the average across all sectors.
