Stellar Dog
FREE training Program
About Our Program
Stellar Dogs was named after our oldest dog, Stella. A rescue with an uncertain start, Stella could have easily ended up struggling with behavioral issues without the right guidance. Instead, with proper training and patience, she became a truly stellar dog—so much so that she now serves as Max’s service dog.
While not every dog is destined for service work, every dog deserves a chance to thrive. That’s why we created the Stellar Dogs Free Training Program—to provide free training to owners who might otherwise feel overwhelmed, out of control, or hopeless about their dog’s behavior. We believe that with the right tools, education, and support, owners can build stronger, more trusting relationships with their dogs.
Though we offer training for free, the real work happens at home. Owners play the most important role in their dog’s success by implementing the training and staying consistent. Our goal is to empower them with the skills and knowledge they need to create positive, lasting change.
Because every dog, no matter their past, deserves the chance to be stellar.
Help us provide free training for dogs at risk for euthanasia, rehoming, or abandonment.
