Who we are

Built by people who take pride in every rep and committed to progress. Our Origin story starts with mascot Auggie, a reactive Cattle Dog, who we got knowing nothing about what it takes to fulfill a working dog.

We discovered early on the need for training and in that fell into the world of bite work and dog sports. We now offer training services for pet dogs as well as our fellow working dogs looking to level up their obedience.

We strive for precision training so when it came to cleaning up our positions we sought out a position box.

Not being able to find exactly what we were looking for on the market, we came up with designing our own product. A custom, handmade wooden position box that’s durable but also sleek enough for on the go training. From there the rest is history!

We now want to offer that same product to other pet parents, K9 handlers, and trainers with the ability to create customizations you envision.
