About The Naked Dog

The Naked Dog offers training programs that teach you, the human, to 'speak dog.' Most owners call us with one problem behavior they really want to change. Instead of treating the symptom and spot correcting only that behavior, we take a holistic approach that addresses the way your dog sees the world. These tools last a lifetime and can be applied to any training issues you face in the future.

We recently completed the three part group training series with our dog. Our two year old lab mix, Jack, is a sweet boy, but he struggled in high distraction environments (hello parks and trails) and we just didn’t know where to start. He is 75 pounds, and was challenging at best on walks around the neighborhood, lunging at the first squirrel or dog along our route. Though he is well mannered at home, it seemed as though he forgot everything when we walked out the door. After a few weeks of boot camp and time spent working with and learning from Allegra and Haley, we can honestly say that choosing them to be our trainers was the best decision we could have made for our little family of three. Their methods are based in dog psychology, which means there’s a lot to learn by us humans on how we can be better leaders for our dogs. Allegra and Haley have guided us through their training series, paired with a comprehensive e-course, on the path to being a strong leader for Jack. They’re responsive, highly knowledgeable and most importantly, they absolutely love the work they do with dogs and their owners. We adore them for their ongoing support, patience and leadership. You want to be part of their pack!

After doing the online series and working alone with my very nervous dog, I saw a lot of improvements. She is so much better on the leash. After just one 30-minute session with Allegra at a busy dog park, I felt confident that I would be able to go back there, which I used to be terrified of doing. Thank you so much for helping my anxious dog overcome some of her fears!

Allegra from The Naked Dog COMPLETELY reformed by pup. My wife reached out to Allegra when our pup nearly got us kicked out of our office building (pre-covid days of course) Luna was barking uncontrollably at strangers, lunging at dogs, & WAILING whenever we left her alone at home. So she was suffering from severe separation anxiety & I was really worried about her. In ONE session. Allegra came in and Luna behaved like a a different dog. Luna was following commands, walking on leash, not lunging at dogs, and super respectful. Turns out it wasn't her who needed reforming it was me. It took me some time to get it, but over 2 weeks we were able to go back in the office and she wouldn't lunge, or bark at dogs anymore. It's been about a year and half now, and Luna a model citizen. She comes when called, sits on command, stops barking when asked, and as long as I take her on her regular runs, her separation anxiety is gone! Plus people always comment on her good behavior. Thanks Allegra!

The Naked Dog has help me and my pup out so much! Roxi has had a lot of leash aggression and behavioral issues. I thought that I would never be able to take her out in public or ever stop dodging my neighbors. After a few sessions with Haley, Roxi has calmed down a bit. I’m able to control her much more than I could a year ago. Haley has also been so responsive via text, calls and even was available ICE when I went out of town. So happy to have found this business and would definitely recommend them to anyone

Haley was a miracle worker with our GSD. He was extremely hyperactive and walked horribly on leash. By the end of the 3rd lesson, we was walking calmly on and off leash! Definitely recommend
