Lasting transformation
You've tried the YouTube videos.
The treats.
The "he'll grow out of it."
The walking strategies.
The well-meaning advice from the park.
And nothing changes. Or it gets worse.


I served in the U.S. Army with the 82nd Airborne. I worked in Search & Rescue. I trained security and service dogs for real-world situations.
All high-performance obedience under pressure.
Along the way, I had one "aha" moment that made all the difference:
Once you communicate the way a dog naturally understands... behavior problems disappear.

"I told Aaron, when I call my dog I want her to come. It’s been 5 years and she still stops and whips around to return to me."

Aaron's training works because it's built on the kind of communication dogs instantly recognize and trust.
Instead of confusing cues or treat-dependent tricks, Aaron teaches dogs through a simple system that makes sense to them.
When training aligns with how a dog already thinks, something powerful happens:
They relax. They listen. They try. They succeed.
Puppies needing structure and manners
Dogs with mild to moderate issues
Owners who want to learn the method themselves
Anyone wanting clear, guided progress every week
One-on-one training sessions
Customized training plan
Real-time coaching
Homework you'll actually know how to do
Visible progress as you and your dog learn together
Best for dogs who need structure, obedience, calm behavior, and reliability:
Pulling on walks
Not listening
Basic commands
Overexcitement
Anxiety
Reliable off-leash recall
Jumping, barking, or general chaos
Includes 3 followup sessions at home
This program builds the foundation of rock-solid obedience and confidence that every family dog needs.
Best for owners who want the highest level of control, clarity, and off-leash freedom:
Advanced obedience
High-level reliability
Manners in all environments
Stronger handling around distractions
A full behavioral reset
Exposure to dozens of real-world situations
Includes 3 followup sessions at home
This is the program families choose when they want the full, life-changing transformation for their dog.

No more pulling on the leash
Comes when called, every time
Be fully trusted off-leash

Aaron trains dogs where behavior actually happens, in language they actually understand.
In the family home. On walks. In public. With kids and surprises. And also routine.
This is why the results stick.

If you ever need help - tomorrow, or five years from now - Aaron will be there at no extra cost.
Every Board & Train program includes a lifetime training guarantee, plus three follow-up sessions in your home — where the behaviors actually matter most.
Most trainers disappear after one follow-up visit. Aaron doesn’t.

Transformations other trainers couldn't achieve
A lifetime guarantee because the results stick
This is why families in St. Louis turn to Aaron when every other dog trainer has failed.
Your dog can change, and Aaron will show you how.
Elite-level training. Lifetime guarantee.
Call Aaron now for a free evaluation.
There's no call center, AI, or automatic replies - you'll get immediately connected to Aaron.

How long does it take to see a difference?
Most dogs start improving in the first few days. The full transformation happens over 6 or 9 weeks.
Can my dog really come when called off-leash?
Yes. This is Aaron's specialty. It's what he's known for.
Is this good for puppies?
Absolutely. Puppies absorb this training incredibly well and build lifelong habits.
What if my dog is aggressive or reactive?
Aaron specializes in tough cases. Evaluations help determine the right program.
We've tried trainers before and nothing worked. Why is this different?
Because this method is unique to Aaron. It's based on speaking the dog's language, not forcing obedience.
What's the difference between private lessons and Board & Train?
Private lessons work if you want weekly coaching, Board & Train is the elite, most efficient path for families who want the fullest transformation.
How much does the training cost?
Private lessons start at just $125, and full program pricing depends on your dog's needs. Every dog is different, so Aaron will recommend the right program for your dog, not just the cheapest.
Is financing available?
Yes, flexible payment plans are available.
What is the lifetime guarantee?
Any training support you need after the program, for the life of your dog, is included.
What happens when my dog comes home?
Aaron trains you too. You'll learn exactly how to maintain and build on your dog's new skills.
It just takes the right trainer with the right experience. That's Aaron.
