Purest Canines builds calm, reliable dogs through immersive 24/7 board and train programs. We work with every breed and every behavior, from basic obedience to serious aggression and reactivity, serving Amissville and all of Northern Virginia.
Tell us about your dog and what you're dealing with. We'll call you back to talk through your goals and recommend the right program. No pressure, no obligation.
Purest Canines is a professional dog training company offering board and train, private lessons, behavior modification, virtual coaching, and AKC Canine Good Citizen certification across all three levels.
Our team will teach you how to communicate with your dog so that your commands are both understood and actually mean something. The result is a dog that listens the first time, at home and in the real world.
Every program is led by an owner-trained USMC veteran and a staff of three or more expert trainers, and every client gets lifetime support.
If any of this sounds like your dog, our board and train program was built for exactly this.
In our board and train, your dog lives and learns with us 24/7. That immersion is what allows real behavior change to stick, instead of fading a week after a class ends.
We make sure your dog feels safe, secure, and at ease with us. A dog that is not stressed is a dog that can actually learn.
Structure gives your dog a clear routine and clear expectations. Most behavior problems start where structure is missing.
Consistent, expert training produces obedience you can count on, not just on a good day but every day.
Proudly serving Amissville, Virginia and the surrounding communities across Northern Virginia and the DMV.
Imagine a life where you and your dog can explore the world together. Walks without the pulling. Guests at the door without the chaos. Patios, trails, and family visits without the anxiety of wondering how your dog will react.
That is what we build. Not a dog that performs for treats in a quiet room, but a dog you can genuinely live with anywhere.
Reach out and tell us about your dog. We will listen to what you are dealing with and what you want to change.
We recommend the right program for your dog's breed, age, and behavior, with clear pricing and timeline up front.
Your dog begins their program, you get updates along the way, and we transfer everything to you at the end.
At Purest Canines we are passionate about helping dogs and their owners thrive. One of the biggest keys to long term success is training YOU. A trained dog going home to an untrained owner is how progress gets undone.
That is why every program ends with a full transfer to you, and why every client gets lifetime support. When a question comes up six months from now, you still have us.
Where passion meets proven results.
★★★★★"Rusty came home from his 6 week board and train at Purest Canines two days ago and I'm honestly still blown away by the difference in him. He is so much calmer, more relaxed, and overall just doing beautifully... This training has honestly been life changing for us."

★★★★★"Our boy is a 1-year-old, very high-drive and highly reactive working dog... In just five weeks, we saw a complete transformation... Using the tools Zach taught us, we've been able to create a calmer, more focused, and much less reactive pup at home."

★★★★★"Sending our bloodhound puppy, Murphy, away for 6 weeks was not an easy decision... Murphy came home not only better trained, but more confident and connected to us. The difference is something you honestly have to see to believe."
