Stateline Canine has been transforming dogs and their owners since 2011. Real training. Real results. Serving families across the Richmond corridor, Hampton Roads, and the historic triangle.
Limited spots available for Virginia families this month.
There's no shortage of dog trainers. Trainers who actually fix the problem — the pulling, the reactivity, the anxiety — that's a shorter list.
Every program is built around your dog's specific behavior — not a one-size template. You'll notice the difference before your first session ends.
Our methods come from police K9 and protection dog backgrounds. If we can train a working dog, your dog is in good hands.
Training that only works when we're there isn't real training. We teach you and your dog together so the results hold at home.
From Richmond and Henrico County to Williamsburg, York County, and Hampton Roads — we come to you or you come to us.
Whether your dog needs a full reset or just some polish, we have a program for it.
Your dog stays with us and comes home a different animal. Ideal for busy owners who want fast, lasting results without weekly appointments.
One-on-one sessions built around your dog's specific issues. Leash pulling, jumping, reactivity, basic obedience — we tackle what's actually frustrating you.
Start them right. Socialization, foundational commands, and preventing bad habits before they form. The best investment you'll make in your dog's life.
Aggression, anxiety, reactivity, resource guarding. These aren't unfixable — they just need the right approach. This is what we specialize in.
Train in a real-world environment alongside other dogs and owners. Great for socialization and reinforcing commands under distraction.
For sport dog enthusiasts and law enforcement. Stateline Canine has deep roots in working dog training and protection sports.

"Our rescue had serious leash reactivity — barking, lunging, the works. After the program, he walks past other dogs without flinching. I honestly couldn't believe it."
"We tried two other trainers before Stateline Canine. Night and day difference. They explained the why behind everything, and our dog still listens months later."
"Started puppy classes when she was 10 weeks. Best decision we made. She's 18 months now and I get compliments on her behavior everywhere we go."
Stateline Canine was founded in Hanover, Pennsylvania with one goal: train dogs the right way. Not shortcuts, not gimmicks — methods that hold up in the real world.
Our roots are in working dog training. Police K9, protection sports, and high-drive dogs taught us that any dog can be trained — it's just about finding the right approach for that individual animal. We bring that same mindset to every family dog we work with.
Now serving Virginia families across the Richmond corridor, Hampton Roads, and the Williamsburg area. Same team, same methods, same results — just closer to home for you.
We serve families across the Richmond metro area, down through the Peninsula and Hampton Roads. Not sure if we cover your area? Give us a call.
