About Beehaved Dog Training Co

Based on what the business publishes about itself

Beehaved Dog Training Co. is a family-owned operation in Gainesville, Texas, led by Sierra Fabian, who started training dogs in 2018. According to her site, she holds certifications as a Humane E-Collar Trainer, NePoPo Silver and Gold credentials, and works as a Certified Mentor Trainer developing other professionals. The team includes specialists with defined focuses: Katie Abraham works with fear and anxiety cases, Katie Hollander concentrates on behavior modification, Jessica Evans handles board and train programs and in-home evaluations, and Kelsey Klongland brings experience as a certified explosive detection K9 handler alongside local law enforcement.

The business describes its approach as based on the NePoPo system, which they characterize as a balanced, motivational method emphasizing clear communication and teaching dogs to make choices rather than simply comply.

Programs range from four to eight weeks for standard obedience work, with a six-week option specifically structured for dogs with reactivity, fear, or aggression that includes muzzle conditioning.

Their services extend across North Texas, from Denton to Fort Worth to the broader DFW area. They state they offer lifetime support after programs end, including discounted refresher sessions, in-home lessons, and phone guidance.
