The Ridgeside K9 Standard

We do not enroll dogs we cannot help.

Most companies pitch you no matter what. We will not. If your dog is not a fit for the program, if the timing is off, if we honestly do not think we can move the needle, we tell you and point you to who can. When we say yes to a Richlands family's dog, we do it because we know we can help. And if you finish the program and get stuck, we keep coaching you for the life of your dog at no charge.

Richlands FAQ

The questions Richlands families ask us.

Do you serve Richlands?
Yes. Richlands is about 20 minutes from our Jacksonville base and is inside our standard service area. Pickup and delivery included.
Can you train property boundaries for a farm dog?
Yes. Boundary work, off-leash reliability, and livestock respect are all trainable. Tell us on the eval call about your property setup and we build the exposure work to match.
What about a high-drive dog that has too much dog for me?
That is one of our core cases. High-drive breeds need structure, outlet, and off switch. All three are built into the Freedom Method. The dog you have is the dog you can actually live with once we finish.
Do you offer military discounts?
Yes. Same military rate for active duty, retirees, veterans, and immediate family. Confirmed on the evaluation call.

Richlands families deserve the same standard.

Every program starts with a free 20-minute evaluation call. Twenty minutes on the phone, zero pressure, real answers about your dog and whether the program fits your Richlands household. Book yours below.
