Puppies
Puppy training is crucial in shaping a well-behaved and confident adult dog. It involves teaching basic commands like "sit," "stay," and "come," which are important for safety and good behavior. Early socialization with different environments and individuals helps in developing a sociable and adaptable pet.
Positive reinforcement, using treats and praise, makes the training process enjoyable and effective. Addressing early challenges such as house training and leash manners with consistency is key. This early investment in your puppy's training paves the way for a rewarding lifelong companionship.
Adult Dogs
Training an adult dog focuses on reinforcing good behaviors and correcting undesirable ones. It includes teaching basic commands like "sit" and "stay" for safety and social manners. Socialization is also crucial, helping your dog adapt to new environments and remain calm around others.
Using positive reinforcement such as treats and praise is effective for encouraging good behavior. Consistency is key, especially when addressing specific challenges like leash manners or excessive barking. Regular training enhances obedience, improves your dog's quality of life, and strengthens your bond, ensuring a respectful and enjoyable companionship.
Behavior Modification
Behavior modification training addresses specific issues like aggression or anxiety in dogs. It involves understanding the cause of the behavior and applying positive reinforcement techniques to encourage good behavior, while correcting negative ones.
This training requires patience and consistency, as changes can be gradual. It not only improves the dog's behavior but also their overall well-being, leading to a more peaceful and understanding relationship between you and your dog.

Morgan
"Best trainer in Southern Maryland! Lauren always answers my texts very quickly and when my dogs are with her she sends me multiple videos and pictures a day. Just in the last few months Lauren has helped me become more relaxed and positive when training which always brings better results. Bongo and Orca know Lauren and they love her so much that at this point she has become a great distraction to train around because they just want to go to her for the best treats and the best pets! You know you picked a great trainer when the dogs WANT to go back!"
Jessica
"This was my first ever boarding experience, and my oldest dog is 15. I never trusted anyone other than family with my dogs and always worried they would be left in some kennel/crate the entire time without the normal play time and snuggles they are accustomed to. Thank goodness Lauren started this boarding business. I was completely comfortable with her keeping him because I know how wonderful she is with not only her own dogs, but every dog I've ever seen her encounter. I knew he would get to run and play outside and I wouldn't have to worry about him getting hurt or running off because of how responsible Lauren has proven to be in the past. Lauren would send numerous pictures and updates throughout the day and promptly responded if i ever asked her a question. Highly recommend Tried and True Train and Stay!"
Jenna
"Absolutely the best decision I made with our new puppy! Lauren starting working with him at 10 weeks old and he learned so quickly from her. She sends videos which I look forward to and the progress has been amazing. 2 weeks in and he has learned leash walking, amazing recall, sit, down & look. I am so glad we met her and I trust her 100% with our pup. Already planning to book additional stays with her when we are out of town. Her daughter works with her and is such a sweet young lady. I would highly recommend using Lauren!"
Stephanie
"Lauren is amazing! We were having issues on where to start with training our 16 week old goldendoodle Copper. we had problems with him listening, nipping, jumping especially to my youngest who is 8. It was to the point where he didn't want to play with him because he wouldn't stop biting and jumping. We did board and train with Lauren and she gave Copper the most amazing foundation and even taught us how to train. After 2 weeks with her he has done amazing! And the fact he is listening to Jace is the most amazing part! Lauren is so good at her job and you can tell she loves what she does. Since copper returned home she has checked on us regularly. This was the best decision we could have made! And we can't wait to continue classes with Lauren. If you need a trainer look no further."
