Are you looking for a dog obedience training camp for your pup in Florida? Unleash your dog’s potential with Unleash Fido! We understand that every dog is different, and K9 dog obedience training can be a lengthy process depending on a dog’s learning capabilities. Likewise, putting training into practice requires continued reinforcement, so your dog will retain what he or she has learned. That’s precisely why we’ve created our programs to meet your pet’s individual needs.

 

Basic obedience skills are essential for every dog to develop, regardless of age or breed. Several of the ordinary tasks taught within our programs include: sit, stay, down, place, come, heel, name recognition, etc.; we also go over obedience, leadership, manners, potty training, socialization, and so much more. We want you to feel confident in your dog’s obedience and in your ability to enjoy day-to-day life with a happy, well-mannered pup! We offer dog obedience training in Jacksonville, FL, as well as in Tampa, FL, and other surrounding areas!

The Basics

Socialization

Because dogs are pack animals historically, it makes sense to train them early on with other social dogs around. Especially considering that the earlier you socialize your dog, the less chance for aggressive confrontations with other pets when going about their regular schedule. You don’t want to wait until you’re dealing with biting, barking, causing destruction, or other major problems. With dog obedience courses, dogs get a good foundation for appropriate behavior. At our facility, we have the ability for multiple dogs to safely introduce, interact, and socialize with your beloved dogs.

 
board and train programs

Private Lessons

While the board and train programs have many advantages, there are times when private obedience lessons for dogs may be more suitable for you. This program is where we teach you how to train your dog using our techniques to quickly get you positive results while educating you on how to care for your best friend properly. Our expert dog trainers will help you and your pup be successful in everyday settings.

 
 
 

Our Goal

If your dog’s feeling a little less like man’s best friend and a lot more like a burden, the problem could be a lack of training. At Unleash Fido, our goal is to ensure that your dog is professionally trained and that owners are knowledgeable in everything dog training, so they can practice at home to ensure long-term results. Whether you want to join in on a class or reap the benefits of one-on-one instruction, you’re bound to walk out of our facility learning something new.

 

There is no reason to prolong dog training for your pup. To help make the process easier, fill out our form below and get a free consultation. We will inform you about everything you need to do to keep your dog well-behaved and happy.

Our Bronx did great training at board and train. He has been home quite a while now and still knows his commands. They took good care of him with all of his meds and shampoos. And he got a fun little field trip to Bass Pro Shops before graduating.

We had the most amazing experience with Unleashed Fido! We fostered our little dog, Dabble, before adopting him, and this was our first experience with both boarding and professional training. He stayed at Unleashed Fido for a month, and we truly could not have been happier. Not only was Dabble incredibly well cared for, but the difference in his behavior and training has been remarkable. He is so well behaved, follows commands, and came home happy and confident. The entire team, especially McKayla , went above and beyond—they are always available to answer questions, keep you updated, and make you feel completely comfortable while your dog is in their care. It was such an incredibly positive experience from beginning to end. We highly, recommend Unleashed Fido and wouldn’t hesitate to trust them with Dabble again. Knowing he’ll be somewhere he loves and is so well cared for gives us tremendous peace of mind. Unleashed Fido is truly an amazing place, and we are so grateful we found them.

Unleash Fido and their team are all FANTASTIC! Geena was our dog trainer; she was patient, very knowledgeable, and really took the time to understand our dogs personality and needs. The training techniques were clear , effective, and easy for us to continue at home. We went out of town and had her boarded and knew that our puppy would be in good hands!! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!!

We had a great experience with this training program. My dog is very timid and anxious, and Geena did such a great job working with him and helping him build confidence. She was patient and really understood his needs. I also really appreciate the follow-up training appointments and how easy it is to communicate with them after the program. It’s nice knowing we still have support as we continue working with him at home. I’m very happy with his progress and would definitely recommend them!

We got referred by multiple friends to use Unleash Fido for our Red Labrador Retriever and wow… was it the best investment ever! Just pull the trigger if you’re hesitant, it’s worth it for your sanity and your dogs! Maple is a year and a half, stage 1000 on the leash pulling, she has so much energy and strength. It was so frustrating/not fun taking her on our daily walks that sometimes we just wouldn’t because how bad she was. Fast forward we intended on leaving on vacation for almost a month. Sent her to Unleash Fido for their four week camp. And we came back to a different dog all thanks to Macayla! She was amazing with Maple and she really knows what she’s doing and is very knowledgeable, she was great I couldn’t recommend her enough! She knew exactly how to handle maple and teach us! Thank you Macayla!

My puppy Mochi was trained by Geena, I was worried at first because my girl was very shy of new areas and new people. After getting her first report card, I was very happy to see Mochi living her best life. She’s doing very well and we keep up with her training every day. Geena definitely made this a good experience and I’ve had no issues. Mochi does still recognize every time we drive over to the building and tends to get very exited. There is no price limit on how to care for your pup, 10/10

Our experience at Unleash Fido was unbelievably good! They took our anxious, unpredictable and aggressive boy and returned him to us as a well-behaved member of our family. Everything was wonderful from beginning to end and we loved the weekly updates where we could watch our dog grow. Geena was our trainer and she was fantastic. Great communication and support every step of the way. We love you girl!

It’s been about two months since Willa completed her board‑and‑train program with Geena Cantalupo at Unleash Fido, and I wanted to share an update because the results have truly held strong. Willa continues to show the same calm confidence Geena helped her build. Her separation anxiety has improved so much that she can relax on her own while I leave the house — something that used to be incredibly stressful for both of us. Her obedience and impulse control have stayed consistent, too. Leash manners, recall, and her ability to settle in new environments are still night‑and‑day better than before training. The structure Geena put in place has made everyday life smoother, and it’s clear that Willa learned skills she can actually maintain long‑term. I’m still so grateful for the foundation Geena gave her. This program wasn’t just a temporary fix — it genuinely changed our day‑to‑day life for the better.

Geena helped our 3 yo retriever get over behavioral difficulties and build his confidence so much! After training with her, he’s still his goofy, lovable self and less reactive to other dogs and distractions. 10/10 experience all around.
