Guided by Growth™ is Woof Houze’s flagship coaching program for guardians who want to grow with their canines. Built around trust and, respect and real-life enrichment, this program honors the unique stages of a canine’s emotional, physical, and behavioral journey.

From puppies to seniors, this experience helps guardians build rhythm, emotional resilience, and deep connection without performance, pressure, or punishment. Whether you’re just starting out or seeking support for a seasoned dog, each stage meets you where you are and grows with you.

We don’t label canines by “problem behavior.”

Instead, we look at how they’re developing emotionally, neurologically, and socially. Coaching in this program is paced, personal, and rooted in rhythm.

You’ll never be rushed to the next level and every guardian gets the guidance they need to show up with clarity, compassion, and confidence.

This is not a one-time course it’s a progression-based mentorship that includes required experiences and evolving support as your dog ages.
