Inertia Canine

Inertia Canine is an in-home dog boarding and training operation in Tempe, AZ, where the boarding side and the training side are run by the same person. The focus is obedience and real-life reliability, not just supervised time in a crate.

Services

Private lessons are the backbone of the business. Sessions happen in a client's home or out in public settings, which is where many dogs actually struggle. Boarding is offered at $60 per night. Training programs include go-home lessons so owners learn how to keep the work going, plus follow-up sessions after a dog heads home.

• Private one-on-one lessons in the home or in public settings
• Real-world exposure and public outings
• Boarding at $60 per night
• Go-home lessons and follow-up sessions
• Free monthly graduate gatherings, hikes, and pack walks

What sets it apart

The trainer is certified in Training Without Conflict (TWC), a method built around the dog's state of mind and around understanding why a behavior happens before trying to change it. Engagement comes first, correction second. Sessions deliberately move into everyday environments like sidewalks, parks, and errands, so skills hold up outside a quiet practice space.

Graduates aren't left on their own once a program ends. They're invited to free monthly gatherings, group hikes, and pack walks, which gives owners a low-pressure way to keep their dog working around other dogs.
