About The Composed Canine Dog Training

Based on what the business publishes about itself

Megan Speers, a Navy veteran and University of Texas graduate, founded The Composed Canine in 2019 after her own experience raising a reactive border collie. According to her site, she adopted the dog in 2011 and hired a trainer in 2015 to work through behavior issues, which eventually led her into the profession. In 2024, she opened a small training facility in Pflugerville to centralize operations after years of working in clients' homes.

The business describes its focus as building partnership between owner and dog through clear communication, with an emphasis on teaching owners to understand and maintain results rather than just achieving them temporarily. Their site notes that many clients come after unsuccessful experiences elsewhere. Programs cover off-leash reliability, loose-leash walking, and behavior modification for reactive, anxious, or aggressive dogs. A weekly puppy class called Puppypalooza serves dogs 9 to 16 weeks old, covering socialization, biting, and potty training.

Board and train clients stay in the trainer's home rather than a kennel, with training woven into daily routines and real-world outings over three weeks or longer for behavior cases. All programs include ongoing support through a private Facebook group, instructional videos, video critiques of owner practice sessions, and written lesson recaps. Graduates can access weekly group classes and day training at the facility.
