Good behaviour doesn’t happen by accident, it’s built through patience and consistency.

We don’t just train dogs, we help them rise, rebuild, and rediscover who they can be. Get Started & Book With Grayson Butler Certified Dog Trainer.

Balanced, Calm, and Consistent

I believe training should bring clarity and peace of mind, for both you and your dog. Through structured routines and compassionate methods, I help dogs understand what’s expected while keeping their spirit and joy intact.

DAYCARE

Dog Daycare is a structured, low-stress experience designed to support your dog’s emotional balance, confidence, and overall well-being throughout the day. Through calm guidance, intentional enrichment, and balanced social interaction, we help each dog develop stability, better behaviour, and a more relaxed state of mind.
 

This daycare is perfect for owners who want more than just supervision, they want their dog to be supported, understood, and guided in a consistent environment that reinforces positive behaviour and healthy routines. Small group sizes ensure individualized care, with a focus on quality attention, structure, and daily progress.

Day Train

Day Train is a focused, relationship-centered program designed to create lasting behavioural change. Over four structured days, we guide your dog to develop calm confidence, impulse control, and reliable manners through rewards-based methods, clear communication, and calm leadership.

 

Each session strengthens understanding between dog and handler, helping your dog learn how to make thoughtful choices and respond consistently, building skills that endure long after the program ends. 

LOOSE LEASH CAMP

2-Day Leash Camp is designed to reset your dog’s relationship with the leash and build clear, calm communication. Drop your dog off for two focused training days and pick them up with practical, real-world progress you can feel right away.

We focus on loose leash walking, engagement around distractions, impulse control, and teaching your dog how to regulate their emotions outside the home.
 

This isn’t just about “not pulling”, it’s about creating a dog who can move through the world with you in a calm, connected way.

This program is perfect for owners who want fast, targeted results without committing to a longer stay, while still gaining the skills to continue the work at home.

ALPINE K9 Programs

Every dog learns differently, and every relationship deserves the right start. At Alpine K9, each program is designed to meet your dog where they are, then guide them forward with clarity, calm, and purpose. Led by Grayson Butler, my approach is grounded in structure, consistency, and real-life application, building dogs that can think, respond, and settle with confidence in everyday environments. Each program is intentionally built to support both dog and owner, creating clear communication, strengthening trust, and developing habits that carry into everyday life.

Day Train

Ideal for puppies, young dogs, or owners looking to refine foundational skills.
 

My Day Train program is designed to build strong habits and clear communication through focused, structured training. You drop your dog off for the day, and I work through targeted sessions that support leash manners, focus, impulse control, and foundational obedience, while also helping your dog learn to stay calm through real-life distractions.


This program offers a consistent, supportive training rhythm without overnight stays, giving your dog the opportunity to learn, practice, and progress in a structured environment, while I guide both of you toward clear communication and lasting results.

DayCare

Ideal for owners who want peace of mind knowing their pup is safe, calm, and progressing in a structured, supportive environment.
 

The daycare at Alpine K9 is a balanced, enriching space led by Grayson Butler, Certified Trainer and owner. I’ve designed this environment around structure, calm energy, and intentional care, guiding dogs through training-based games, enrichment activities, healthy socialization, and nervous system regulation to support overall well-being, not just physical exercise.
 

I keep groups small and focused, with a maximum of five dogs, so I can provide individualized attention, personalized care, and consistent reinforcement for every dog in my care.

1:1 Training

Ideal for dogs of all ages who need personalized support with behaviour, communication, and real-life skills, and for owners who want clear, hands-on guidance tailored to their specific goals.

​

I focus on building clarity, consistency, and practical handling skills that carry into everyday life, not just during training. This is structured, one-on-one coaching where I guide you in how to communicate effectively with your dog, creating lasting progress, stronger connection, and more confident handling moving forward.
