So what is the The Pillars of Pack Leadership Academy?

The Pillars of Pack Leadership Academy is a comprehensive online dog training course developed by renowned dog trainer Alyson Rodges. 

Alyson trains in-person at her beautiful training center in Arroyo Grande, CA.  It's affectionately known as Aly's Acres.  THOUSANDS of dogs have graduated from Aly's Puppy Boot Camp there, and now she wants everyone to be able to access this training information. 

Alyson's Pillars of Pack Leadership Academy teaches you exactly how and why Aly trains the way she does. 

The Academy starts with the fundamentals...understanding your dogs drives and states of mind.  To truly understand your dog and what motivates them, you need to know this information. 

It then moves into Aly's Pillars of Pack Leadership.  Her proven strategies help you go live life with your dog in a safe, sane and civilized way. 

THE PILLARS...

  • Establishing Effective Structure
  • Establishing Effective Rituals
  • Purpose Driven Activities
  • Respect of Space
  • The Human Component

At the heart of her program, is the Schedule for Success (located within the Establishing Effective Structure Pillar). It is a culmination of all her Pillars into an actionable schedule that will teach your dog the art of "Just Be", the relaxed calm state of mind you want your dog to have. 

BUT, we didn't stop there. We also created a private Facebook group so that students of the Academy can come in and ask questions.  Once a week, Aly even pops in to personally answer questions! 

This program is the next best thing to training at Aly's Acres in-person. 

Join us in the journey and let us help you create the relationship with your dog that you have always dreamed of! 

"THESE VIDEOS ARE INCREDIBLY HELPFUL" Aly is superbly clear, concise, hands on with what helps us and our puppies & dogs live our lives. Her Pillars of Pack Leadership method is an effective combination of Balanced dog training and Positive dog training, with a focus on body language and crystal clear communication with dogs. She uses many types of reinforcement, but without the total dependence on treats. She teaches us how to teach our dogs to THINK and choose to be calm. Big difference. I highly recommend the Academy to you all."

"Alyson Rodgersā€™ Pillars of Pack Leadership is an outstanding, step-by-step, guide for training your dog. Her kind, consistent approach has left me prepared to properly train and continue training my dog for life. I would highly recommend this course to everyone who has a dog or is thinking about getting one."

Kerri Karas

"Thanks to Aly Rodges and her Pillars of Pack LeadershipĀ®, we have the best dog in the world (if you don't believe me, just ask my husband or daughter.) Aly's ideas-communicated clearly and with humor-go so far beyond mere obedience training. She taught us to "speak dog": to be calm and cosistent, to create the foundation for a relationship that, three years later, is still yielding positive results."

"Alyson Rodges was that rare student that actually did everything I told her to do, and she's done it very well! I have witnessed her expertise and compassion for her dogs and her people. I'm excited to see what she contributes next to our dog training world."

Marc Goldberg
Hall of Fame dog trainer & Co-Author of Let Dogs Be Dogs

"With a twinkle in her eye, Aly (and her Pillars of Pack Leadership) transforms the challenging task of convincing your dog that YOU are the pack leader into a lifelong practice that's fun and makes perfect sense. The most wonderful lesson Aly taught our family is that there is a fundamental difference between a dog that's just being compliant to your rules and a dog that is accepting of you and your family as the pack leaders. This state of being actually makes for a happier, calmer, well-adjusted pooch...it makes for a dog that knows that he or she is being led properly, which makes them fell safe. A true dog pack mentality."

"Alyson not only trains dogs, she trains and equips owners and breeders to become the pack leader that their dog needs. We have referred many, many of our pet families to her and will continue to do so, because we know that any dog (or person) who goes through Aly's Pillars of Pack Leadership training will benefit greatly."
