You have been told your dog is hopeless, or you are terrified of the next incident. Before you give up, let us assess honestly what is possible, this is the most intensive program we offer, built for the dogs no one else will take.
Transform Camp is Partners Dogs' most intensive 28-night board-and-train, built for the severe cases other trainers refuse, multi-bite histories, bites toward family members, and outward, non-reactive aggression. A single reactive bite or a moderate case routes to Behavior Camp instead; Transform Camp is for dogs whose behavior has become dangerous. Every enrollment begins with a required PD360 assessment because not every dog is accepted, and we will tell you the realistic prognosis, some dogs are transformed, others significantly improved with lifelong management, and a few have limits training cannot move. Drawing on 28 years and 70,000+ dogs trained, the program pairs intensive daily rehabilitation with 7 hours of private lessons, 12 weeks of classes, and a management plan you can hold long-term.
Family-owned since 1997. 70,000+ dogs trained. 4.8 stars across 2,000+ reviews. Two Arizona campuses, Scottsdale and Cave Creek.

FOR THE HARDEST CASES
You have heard the words no owner wants to hear: this dog is too much, we cannot help you, you should consider other options. Transform Camp is for the cases other trainers turned away, aggression, bite history, severe fear and reactivity. Over four weeks of intensive, live-in work, our most experienced trainers build the safety and structure that gives your family a real path forward.
START HERE
Transform Camp begins with a PD360 assessment, no exceptions. Aggression and fear demand a plan built on a careful read of your dog. PD360 is $199, credited toward enrollment in your recommended camp or membership (not toward à la carte bookings or general reservations), and a dog showing aggression or fear can still enroll; that is exactly what this program is for.

Transform Camp with a private luxury suite is $8,929. The live-in stay makes up about $215 a night of that, and the one price covers 28 nights of live-in training, 6 private lessons including an in-home follow-up, 12 Pet Parenting group classes, and 24 DayCamp follow-up days. A $100 deposit holds your spot, 50% is due at check-in, and the balance is paid at pickup. A standard kennel option is available at Cave Creek, membership pricing lowers the cost, and financing is available.
It is built for the most severe cases, multi-bite histories, bites toward family members, and outward, non-reactive aggression. Single reactive bites and moderate behavior issues are better served by Behavior Camp, and your PD360 assessment confirms which level your dog actually needs.
We never promise a cure. We give the realistic prognosis at PD360, some dogs are transformed, others significantly improved with lifelong management, and a few have limits training cannot move, and not every dog is accepted into the program.
Both serve severe cases. Transform Camp is the 28-night camp format with a set inclusion package; Aggression Rehabilitation is the bite-history specialty with an extended, case-specific timeline and lifetime handler support. PD360 determines which path fits.
Yes, because we build the whole stay around safety. Aggression and severe fear cases are handled by our most experienced trainers, with safety protocols throughout and controlled, one-at-a-time exposure rather than open group play. The PD360 assessment maps the triggers and risk first, and the plan is designed so your dog is never put in a situation the team cannot manage.
Yes. Send medications and supplements in their original containers with written instructions, including any behavior or anxiety meds and when to give them. Our senior staff administer medication on schedule and follow your directions exactly. We are not a veterinary clinic, so we work within scope and contact you if anything changes.
Yes. You receive progress updates along with demo sessions, including two working demos, so you understand the plan, see the change under controlled conditions, and learn your role in keeping your dog and family safe. Because these cases need long-term management, the transition does not stop at pickup: an in-home follow-up brings the work to where the behavior actually happens.
