Professional Behavior Modification Near White Marsh, MD

White Marsh dog owners no longer have to settle for cookie-cutter obedience classes that were not designed for serious behavioral challenges.

Customized Training Plan

Based on what we learn in your consultation, we design a training plan built specifically around your dog's personality, triggers, and the behaviors you most want to change. Nothing is off-the-shelf here.

Before your dog comes home, we conduct a dedicated session with you. We walk through every command, demonstrate the results in person, and make sure you feel fully confident maintaining what your dog has learned.

Lifetime Follow-Up Support

Graduation is not the end. Every program includes our guaranteed lifetime follow-up, meaning free tune-up sessions whenever your dog needs a refresher, for as long as you own them.

Our training does not stop the moment your dog comes home. We generalize every behavior to help your dog perform reliably under all conditions because the goal has never been a dog who only behaves in a training facility. The goal is a dog you can trust everywhere.

I can’t begin to explain how helpful and wonderful all the staff and trainers were to me and my boy Gunner. I came in with a puppy that had no manners and all around wild child, hated to admit it but I needed help. After the 4 week day train program I was left with a better mannered pup and all the tools needed to continue to have the best possible relationship and well mannered dog in the future. Everyone was very kind, patient and understanding with me and my wild fur child. I literally couldn’t have asked for a better experience for me and my boy Gunner. Thank you again everyone that worked with me and Gunner, continuing with what me and him were taught you guys gave me the perfect stepping stones to having a well mannered pup in the future.

We take our GSD to Stateline in Hanover. First, we could not ask for a better team to work with our dog. They are always friendly, understanding, patient, and happy. I honestly can say the staff is always happy to assist, answer questions, and are there every step of the way. They take care of our dog during the day just like I would want for my children. When she has had accidents, they bathe her. When she has an upset belly, they tell us. When we had to reschedule, they worked with us without a problem. When we are doing training, they are able to also laugh with us & dont make us feel “dumb”. Its only been 3 weeks and its like I have a new dog. I have more confidence from their support and our life has started to become easier for all of us. We will forever be grateful for Stateline & all of the staff.

I wanted to share how amazing Austin the trainer is. He did a fantastic job with our 2 year old Cane Corso Ellie Mae. We were at our wits end. She wanted nothing to do with the mussel. Within an hour he had mastered it. It was unbelievable. I would highly recommend Austin and the team at Stateline Canine.

Can’t say enough good things about all my experiences with Sateline. As a new dog owner I was extremely nervous to make sure I was doing all the right things. They were extremely helpful during and after training. The end result is the perfect adventure buddy. She went from a bit of unpredictable puppy to a fun companion and I feel very grateful I took the leap. Stateline gave me the tools needed to maintain everything Wayland learned along the way and it’s been a massive bonus to have a trusted place to board her. I think sometimes she doesn’t even want to leave when I pick her up lol. Shout out to Naomi and all the other professional trainers for their help and great care of Wayland. Great investment and your little one is in good hands with Stateline. Thanks again!

I recently attended a Janet Edwards seminar, and it was truly life-changing. The amount of experience, knowledge, and valuable information she shared was incredible. I left with so much to think about and apply, and it was one of the most impactful and educational dog training experiences I’ve had. I’ve also attended Shawn Edwards seminars, and those were amazing as well. Both bring so much experience, insight, and real-world knowledge to the table, and it’s clear how much they have to offer the dog training community. I have also previously used State Line for other seminars and events, and every experience there has been excellent. The facility is clean, well-maintained, and set up really well for dogs and handlers. The staff is knowledgeable, professional, and welcoming, and it’s absolutely a place I would trust with my dog anytime. If you’re looking for a professional dog training facility, high-quality dog training seminars, and experienced people who truly know dogs, I would absolutely recommend State Line.

Great place for training. We took our shelter rescue staffy mix here for boarding and training. After 3 weeks of training she was ready to come home. The staff was great throughout her training. We received numerous phone calls and text messages about her during her training. On pick up day we never felt rushed by the staff and they were great with going over all the commands with all 3 of us. I would highly recommend them to anyone who's looking for a great service at a fair and reasonable price

Everything You Need to Know About Our Programs, Pricing, and Process

Every trainer on our team uses motivational, science-based methods tailored to the individual dog. We focus on low-stress learning, reward-based reinforcement, and building genuine understanding rather than just mechanical compliance. As our founder Janet Dooley Edwards always says, our favorite rule of training is simple: set the dog up for success.

Yes, and that is exactly what our behavior modification program is built for. We specialize in the difficult cases including aggression toward people or other dogs, fear-based reactivity, resource guarding, and anxiety-driven behaviors. We take on cases that other trainers have turned away and we back our work with a lifetime guarantee.

Our entire training staff holds Certified Master Trainer credentials through Tarheel Canine Training, one of the most respected and rigorous certification programs in the country. Our head trainer Shawn Edwards is a PSA Hall of Famer and three-time National Champion. We also bring over 20 years of professional experience working with pet dogs, sport dogs, and active law enforcement K9 teams.

Not at all. Alongside our pet behavior modification programs, we have trained more than 100 active law enforcement K9 teams across the country and have over two decades of experience working with K9 Search and Rescue teams serving federal, state, and local agencies. That breadth of experience directly informs how we approach every dog in our care.

Programs run two, four, or six weeks of immersive daily training depending on your dog's individual needs and the goals you want to achieve. We will recommend the right duration during your free initial consultation
