Can you recommend a trainer?
YES WE CAN!
Adopting a rescue dog is a happy and exciting time in your family's life. But, it can also be challenging and stressful for both you and your dog. Many rescue dogs are in shelters at the time in their life when boundaries should be set, and socialization and training should occur.
After a thorough review of the content, we have partnered with Method K9 Institute to bring you their online training programs. Their courses are trusted, effective, and packed with valuable knowledge for dog owners of all experience levels.
We recommend 3 programs
Puppy Jump Start – Perfect for setting your new pup up for success!
Basic Foundations – A must-have course with invaluable tools, even for experienced handlers.
Intermediate Foundations – Take your dog’s training to the next level!

Let's set our dogs up for success together!
​Are you struggling to leash train your dog?
​ We recommend a martingale collar. A martingale collar is a training tool that gently encourages dogs to walk politely on a leash by tightening slightly when the dog pulls, but not so much that it chokes them. It's particularly useful for dogs prone to pulling or slipping out of regular collars.
​
-
Gentle correction: The collar provides a gentle cue to the dog to stop pulling, without the harshness of a choke chain.
-
Improved leash manners: The collar helps train dogs to walk politely on a leash by associating pulling with an uncomfortable sensation.
-
Prevents slipping: The design prevents dogs with narrow heads or those prone to slipping out of regular collars from backing out.

If you’ve adopted from us or attended one of our events, you’ve probably already seen how much we like Max & Neo products. Almost every dog adopted from Save Monroe Strays goes home with a Max & Neo leash and martingale collar — we trust their quality, and we stand behind their mission.
​
​​These products work well while training your new dog and can continue to be used throughout their life.​​
