We don't just train your dog — we train your family.

A behaviorally balanced dog starts at home. For a decade, Homemade Hounds has helped women and families raise dogs the whole household helps shape — kids, partners, even close friends. Because whether your family is one or ten, it takes a village.

What we do

Everything your dog needs — and everything your family needs to help.

Every service we offer is built around one goal: a behaviorally balanced family dog. We don't just train your dog — we show your whole household how to keep that balance at home. Choose what your family needs right now, or combine a few for the full Homemade Hounds experience.

It takes a village

The whole family makes a balanced dog.

You don’t have to do this alone. The biggest mistake we see? One person doing all the training while everyone else in the house does something different. Your dog isn’t sure who to listen to — and the behavior you’re working on keeps coming back.

We’ll show you how to bring everyone in. Your kids, your partner, the friend who watches your dog when you travel — each person becomes part of the plan. When the whole family uses the same words, the same rewards, and the same boundaries, your dog finally gets it. And it sticks.

Whether your family is one person or ten, it takes a village. And we’re here to help you build yours.

Kids who train

When children learn to give commands, reward calm, and read body language, your dog listens to everyone — not just the grown-ups.

One set of rules

No more "but someone else lets me on the couch." We help your whole household get on the same page so your dog hears one consistent message.

Friends & family welcome

Grandma, the babysitter, your best friend who dog-sits — when the people in your dog’s life all use the same approach, balance sticks.

Confidence for everyone

A dog who trusts every family member is a dog you can take anywhere. Calm walks, easy vet visits, relaxed guests at the door.

Every family member is part of the team. Consistency at home is the secret to a dog who listens to everyone.

About us

A decade of devotion to dogs — and the families who love them.

Our team brings more than 20 years of hands-on experience working with dogs, and for the past 10 years we've called Middleburg home. Our work has always been guided by a single belief: every dog can become behaviorally balanced when given clear communication, fair structure, and genuine understanding — from the whole family, not just one person.

We built Homemade Hounds Bed & Biscuit on our quiet 10-acre property in Middleburg, Florida so dogs in our care have room to move, settle, and play the way dogs naturally do — outdoors, with space and calm. Every member of our team brings the same patient, balanced approach to every dog we meet.

We're women who love dogs and families who love dogs. We know that raising a dog feels a lot like raising a kid — it takes a village. That's why we don't just train your dog, we train your family. When everyone in the household uses the same approach, your dog becomes the well-rounded family member you always hoped for.
