The name “Collie & Corso” comes from Lauren’s two canine companions: Harvest Moon (aka Harvey), a 3 year old Smooth Collie, and Vetiver (aka Veti), a 9 year old Cane Corso.
Training Philosophy
Genuine behavior change isn’t a “quick fix” – it’ll require a daily commitment to the training plan we formulate together, and I’ll be here to support you through that.
Services
Initial Consultation + Foundational Training Session includes obtaining a detailed history of your dog’s training and behavior history, construction of a specific behavior objective, and a foundational introduction on how to change behavior by addressing the root cause.
Continuing with a Training Package includes a highly customized training plan that will require daily logging of your training sessions via a shared document between us. Aside to helping you get in the habit of doing regular training sessions with your dog, this will also provide data for us to track and ensure we are making progress toward meeting your training goals.
Certifications

Description: This is the second Marauder leash I’ve purchased, and both are absolutely beautiful, well-made, and super helpful with managing my very strong and sometimes reactive dogs. I love the traffic handle which I use as an “emergency brake” when a rabbit or squirrel comes into play. I haven’t worried about broken clasps or damage from teeth marks, because for once, I found something that’s stronger than my dogs. Also, huge bonus how quickly these dry, and even bigger bonus that they’re easily cleaned. Shipping was so fast, and I feel great about supporting this small, local business.

Description: We are obsessed with our marauder leash! It is the first hands free leash that offers actual length for our pup to sniff and explore. I love having the fixed o ring so I can easily switch from a handled leash to hands free when walking both of my pups. This is our second Collie and Corso leash and nothing else compares. These are so high quality and easy to clean. I recommend them to all of my clients. I’ve been wanting to add another marauder to our collection, I just have to decide on colors!
