About Treeline Pack Co.
Treeline Pack Co. is an adventure dog training company based in Anchorage, Alaska dedicated to building dogs you can take anywhere.
Life in Alaska offers incredible opportunities to explore the outdoors with your dog. From hiking mountain trails to winter sports like canicross and skijoring, dogs can become true partners in adventure when they have the right training foundation.
At Treeline Pack Co., we help dog owners build reliable dogs through foundational obedience, off leash communication, and relationship-based training. Our programs focus on developing clear communication between dog and handler while creating the confidence and reliability needed for real world adventures.
Because the best dogs are not just obedient. They are partners.
Built on Partnership
Great training starts with a strong relationship between dog and handler.
At Treeline Pack Co., we focus on building that partnership through clear communication, play, and shared experiences. Our training approach is influenced by modern balanced training systems and the NePoPo methodology, emphasizing motivation, clarity, and accountability so dogs understand how to succeed.
The result is a dog that works with their owner willingly and confidently in the real world.
Real World Adventure Dogs
Many behavioral problems appear when dogs lack meaningful outlets for their energy and instincts.
Adventure based training helps solve that problem.
Our programs prepare dogs for real life outside the backyard, including hiking, trail running, canicross, and skijoring. By combining obedience training with real world environments, we help dogs develop the reliability and confidence needed to explore Alaska safely with their people.
Experience and Background
Treeline Pack Co. was founded by Cat, an AKC Canine Good Citizen evaluator and FitDog instructor who has spent years studying and working with dogs across multiple disciplines.
Cat has trained under several professional trainers including Blue Phantom Dog Training in Utah, and has fostered more than 50 rescue dogs over the past fifteen years.
Her own pack includes a rescue American Bully named Meatball and two working beaucerons who train and compete in scent work, herding, and IGP. But first and foremost, they are adventure dogs, regularly hiking Alaska’s trails and training in activities like canicross and skijoring.
More Than Training
Treeline Pack Co. exists to build more than individual training programs. The goal is to create a community of dog owners who value responsible training, outdoor adventure, and strong relationships with their dogs.
Through training meetups, pack walks, and group hikes, we are building a pack of owners and dogs who train, explore, and grow together.
Because strong dogs are built through training.
But great dogs are built through training, adventure, and community.
From Recall to Ridgeline

Training Packages
Five private sessions designed to build the obedience every adventure dog needs
Before dogs can safely explore Alaska’s trails, they need structure and clear communication.
Our Foundational Obedience Program builds the skills every adventure dog needs.
This program focuses on:
Marker training and clear communication
Response to leash pressure
Reliable recall
Calm leash walking
Environmental neutrality
Handler engagement and focus
These skills create the structure dogs need before moving into off-leash work and adventure training.
This program is ideal for owners who want solid obedience that translates outside the house and into the real world.
This program comes with a long slip lead and is the basis for all adventure programs
A huge part of adventure dog training is reliable off-leash communication.
Our off-leash training program uses modern e-collar conditioning to create clear communication between dog and handler at a distance.
This training allows dogs to safely explore while maintaining reliable control.
This program focuses on:
Proper e-collar conditioning
Long-distance recall
Off-leash heel and engagement
Emergency stop commands
Trail reliability around wildlife and distractions
The goal is true off-leash freedom, not just in the backyard, but on trails, in the mountains, and in Alaska’s wild spaces.
3 sessions + e-collar included
Once a dog has strong foundations and off-leash reliability, we move into real adventure skills.
Adventure training prepares dogs for the unique challenges of outdoor recreation in Alaska.
This training can include:
Trail etiquette with hikers and other dogs
Long-line and off-leash hiking skills
Backpacking and backcountry trips
Ski-joring and winter trail training
Canicross and running with your dog
Calm behavior at trailheads and campsites
Anything specific to your outdoor lifestyle!
