Rooted in Snyder. Working with West Texas.

Where we work

ARK DOG is based in Snyder, Texas, with a typical service radius of roughly 200 miles. Chase and Makenzi Nobles cover the region, with contractor support where available. These cities are service areas, not separate branch locations.

We typically come to you.

For hands-on Owner Train and other client-based training, we typically travel to your location. The first few Owner Train sessions are usually in your home to prepare the dog. Sessions also take place in public spaces, typically toward the end of the program as the dog and owner are ready. Board & Train is the usual exception: owners typically come to the trainer for the program’s owner sessions, drop-off and pickup. Some Board & Train owner sessions may also take place at your home or in public, depending on the training plan.

We confirm the meeting location, schedule and any applicable mileage with you before training begins.

Choose the level of support your dog needs.

Our premium Puppy Board & Train provides daily professional development. Owner Train helps you learn hands-on, usually at your location. Guided virtual training provides remote coaching while you do the daily work.

Board & Train includes regular owner participation throughout the program, not only a final pickup lesson. We’ll explain what those sessions involve before you choose your plan.
