Allegiance Canine

Gretchen is a hidden gem at Allegiance. Pepsi adores her. We started unofficial scent training with her as Pepsi finishes his advanced training. She is so knowledgeable in training working dogs while keeping it fun for them. Pepsi loves all of the scent work he does with her and FREAKS OUT when he sees her. He was not even upset when we dropped him off for his board & training with Gretchen when we went out of town. Gretchen has been instrumental in helping us develop creative outlets to combat doodle boredom. Each task was tailored to Pepsi's love of smell, hunting, and brain work. No matter who you work with at Allegiance, you will find caring people who know exactly how to motivate your dog. You won't find a scripted class.

We love working with Lillian at Allegiance Canine. Every session is perfectly tailored to Pepsi’s needs. We started with puppy training at 4 months and moved to advanced when he was 8 months old. Lillian does a great job to gently correct my lack of knowledge while also informing the why behind it. I have been impressed by Allegiances focus on safety. Pepsi has loved every interaction at Allegiance (puppy training, advanced training, group classes, board & train, enrichment daycare). He runs to the door and is excited to be at Allegiance K9 every time.

Outstanding Training and Expertise with Belgian Malinois I cannot say enough good things about Allegiance Canine and the exceptional work Jacque has done with my Belgian Malinois, Raider. From advanced obedience to ongoing personal protection training, the results have been nothing short of amazing. Jacque, the owner and trainer, brings a level of professionalism, patience, and deep breed knowledge that’s hard to find. Belgian Malinois are incredibly intelligent and driven dogs that require specialized handling, and Jacque truly understands how to channel that energy into focused, reliable performance. The training has been completely tailored to Raider’s individual needs, and I’ve seen a dramatic improvement not only in his obedience but also in his confidence and control. If you’re looking for a trainer who genuinely understands working breeds and delivers results with integrity and care, I highly recommend Allegiance Canine. Raider and I are proud to be part of the Allegiance family

We’ve been training with Jacques at Allegiance Training for over 16 months now, and I can honestly say it’s been life-changing—for both me and my dog, Darwin. Darwin is a rescue with a strong prey drive and was extremely reactive around other dogs. When we first started, we only had a basic understanding of each other. But with Jacques’ guidance, patience, and deep knowledge of canine behavior, we built a solid foundation in obedience and communication. Today, Darwin and I are working at an advanced level, pursuing sport training and even exploring personal protection work—something I never thought we’d be ready for when we started. Jacques and his entire team are amazing—professional, kind, and committed to both the dog and the handler. Whether you have a new puppy or an older dog, Allegiance Training is where you want to be. Because yes, old dogs can learn new tricks—with the right trainer. Highly recommend to anyone serious about building a strong, respectful bond with their dog. 🐾
