About this program
What they say about themselves
K9 Courage Dog Training operates out of Manteca, about 20 minutes from Stockton, with trainers Lily and Daniel handling board-and-train programs and private sessions respectively. According to their site, dogs in their board-and-train programs stay in the trainer's home rather than a kennel facility—an approach they describe as helping skills transfer more naturally to the owner's household afterward.
The business emphasizes training in real-world environments rather than a dedicated facility. Their site describes sessions taking place in parks, on sidewalks, and in neighborhoods throughout Stockton and San Joaquin County, with the stated goal of building obedience that holds up outside controlled training settings. They work with puppies starting at eight weeks, covering foundational obedience and socialization, and also describe taking on dogs with aggression, reactivity, or fear-based behaviors, typically through their board-and-train program following an evaluation.
For owners who prefer hands-on involvement, private one-on-one sessions have the owner working directly with the trainer to build skills themselves. Their site mentions daily photo and video updates during board-and-train stays, and they advertise lifetime support after any program ends. They describe themselves as locally owned rather than a franchise, serving neighborhoods across Stockton and nearby cities including Tracy, Lathrop, and Ripon.
