INU is the Japanese word for dog”
INU offers balanced socials for dogs in a safe and structured environment. Whether you need help with aggression or are looking for a consistent program for your dog, our program is created to influence each dog hormonally, emotionally, and mentally rather than physically.
Instead of relying on obedience commands (Sit, Stay, Place), commercial tools (E-collar, Prong, etc), or force, we choose to change how a dog FEELS in their environment. We often overlook how our routine and relationship is affecting our dogs. While most trainers focus on correcting the dogs’ symptoms, dogs are only reacting honestly to the reality we create for them. How can we expect our dogs to change until we change for them?
While the pack helps each dog in their process, we also spend a great deal of time educating each owner to develop a new understanding of their dog and seeing the world from their perspective. This work will translate to a deeper bond between you and your dog. Whether you're looking for socialization or rehabilitation, INU is excited to welcome your dog to our pack.
We understand this is a lot of information, if you’re interested and would like to talk further, we would love to hear from you!
INU is owned by the two pack leaders, Lindsey and George Schulz -Peaslee. Currently servicing the Sebastopol and surrounding areas.
Socials
Pack walks begin with dropping off your dog in the morning where they socialize in the dog park, followed by the hour long group walk where we focus on leash manners, socialization, as well as mental and physical work. We then head back to the dog park to practice appropriate play, socialization and boundaries. Walks are scheduled on a consistent weekly basis (minimum of 1 day/week, with a 24 hour cancellation policy).

Consultations
For owners who are not interested in weekly socials, we also offer consultations which dives deep into your relationship with your dog. We'll help identify where the miscommunications are happening and why. We can go over any issues you're having (human aggression, dog aggression, fear aggression, separation anxiety, prey drive, leash skills, neurotic behaviors etc), and what needs to change in order to have a more balanced dog, and a healthier relationship rooted in the laws of nature.

TESTIMONIALS
Hello! I would jump off a bridge if you two said to. haha jk (but not really), here you go and feel free to edit however you need and use however you'd like. Feel free to use any pics of the boys that you have as well :)
“When we came to INU Packs, we were honestly hopeless and convinced our two dogs would have to live separately for the rest of their lives. After more scary fights than I’d like to admit, ER trips, and trying training method after training method, we felt like total pet parent failures.
Lindsey and Mariah completely changed everything. They helped us rebuild the dynamic in our home, between us and our dogs, and between the dogs themselves. It’s hard to put into words the impact INU Packs has had on our lives. My goal was simply peace in the home and a better life for our pups. They gave us so much more than that.
They’ve supported us every step of the way, and now the boys do weekly pack walks, and are even able to play appropriately with other dogs. On our most recent family trip, people kept commenting on how unrecognizable our dogs were, in the best way. I only wish we’d found INU Packs years ago.”

I am really going to miss the INU Pack. I have known Lindsey for 15 years and cannot recommend her enough. Our dogs absolutely love their walks and she is wonderful at taking the time to help us work with our dogs and give us a balanced home. WE LOVE YOU!

INU Pack and Lindsey are THE BEST! She really loves what she does and cares about all of the dogs as if they were her own. The walks are great exercise for your dog both mentally and physically. Her knowledge and training techniques are really what set her apart from everyone else. I can't thank her enough for the changes she has helped us make to have a more balanced dog and home.

Lindsey and George are doggie super heroes. Not only have they helped my dog gain confidence, but also they have taken the time to show me how to become a better dog parent. They are able to draw upon their vast knowledge of dog behavior and psychology in teaching me. Their work has transformed my dog into a calm, confident, and peaceful pup. They are trustworthy and reliable. I always know my dog is in good hands.

When we adopted Cosmo, we had no idea the challenges we’d face. Over time, he began to show dog and human aggression — to the point that he was expelled from doggie daycare. We were heartbroken and unsure how to help him while juggling full-time jobs.
We tried several positive reinforcement training programs, but none could truly address his aggression. It felt like no one knew how to help this dog we loved so much.
Then we found INU Pack Walks, and everything changed. From the moment I reached out, the founder responded right away and scheduled a consultation. INU worked with us one-on-one to develop a plan tailored to our needs, and they introduced us to their signature pack walks — where their “pack of misfits” can safely socialize and just be dogs.
After just one session, Cosmo was a different dog — and we were different dog owners. INU taught my partner and me how to communicate with Cosmo in a way he actually understood. They showed us how to keep him (and everyone around us) safe while helping him let go of his aggression. Thanks to INU, our home and lives opened up again. We can finally have friends and family over without stress or fear.
Two years later, we’re still attending pack walks, and the INU team continues to offer guidance and encouragement every step of the way. Their ongoing support and commitment to meeting each dog and human where they are make them truly special.
I recommend INU Pack Walks to anyone looking to transform their relationship with their dog — whether you’re dealing with leash-pulling, aggression, or simply want a calmer, more balanced home. INU doesn’t just train dogs — they teach humans how to build lasting, loving relationships with them.

Lindsey and George have been a major game changer for our family in relation to Sunshine! Sunshine is an incredible dog that we rescued a few years ago; but she came with a lot of insecurities and fears. We really didn't know how to handle or help her to be the dog that we knew she could be, more relaxed and at ease. We discovered Lindsey and the pack walks through another trainer we had worked with and once Sunshine began, her rewiring began immediately. As did ours. This led us to training sessions with Lindsey so that we could have the tools to follow through with Sunshine. The dynamic is completely different in our house!! It feels pretty miraculous as it was always such a high energy and out of control feeling. The best part is that Lindsey demonstrates her clarity and command with a deep love and respect for both the dog and us humans!!
