Learn More About BDB

Bevill Dog Behavior (BDB) came into existence in 2013 when owner/founder, Brad Bevill, decided helping dog owners and their dogs was his life’s purpose and what brings him joy. 

In January of 2017 (after an 18-year corporate career in marketing and advertising), Brad made BDB his full-time focus and quickly grew the company and built a team of talented dog behavior specialists. 

From day one, our goal has been to educate as many dog parents as possible while helping dogs achieve the balanced life they want and need.

Bevill Dog Behavior (BDB) came into existence in 2013 when owner/founder, Brad Bevill, decided helping dog owners and their dogs was his life’s purpose and what brings him joy.

From day one, our goal has been to educate as many dog parents as possible while helping dogs achieve the balanced life they want and need.

As the business continued to grow, Brad quickly realized that a single location in Dallas wasn’t convenient for his Fort Worth clients. So in August of 2017 Brad opened a Fort Worth location. And in March of 2019 the Rockwall location was added. 

While the early years of BDB were focused on physically helping dogs and their families in the DFW metroplex, Brad realized that while he and the team were continually improving their own skills by helping some of the most complicated rehabilitation cases around, the average dog parent was struggling to fully understand, enjoy, and fulfill their dogs. 

So in 2022 Brad moved his focus from on-premise/in-person only training to human (and dog) education using all available platforms, as well as, a product line that will help any dog owner enjoy their dog to the fullest.

BDB commonly works with dogs that pull on the leash, bark excessively, jump on guests, potty in the house, whine in or destroy their crate, struggle socially, are fearful, anxious, insecure, obsessive, or aggressive.

Nothing makes us happier than hearing how we not only helped modify a dog’s behavior, creating a calmer, happier dog, but the impact that newly- balanced dog had on the family.

When you become a BDB client, you are buying into the entire ecosystem - not just the training. Training is only part of the journey. Our ecosystem and philosophy, when paired with hard work from our clients, has been the solution for countless challenging behaviors and strained relationships.

Join the BDB family today and let us help bring balance to your home!

OUR PHILOSOPHY

BDB’s ecosystem was designed to educate humans, rehabilitate dogs, and rebuild relationships. We are relationship-based, dog behaviorists. We don’t deliver robot dogs – we deliver balanced dogs.

When Brad Bevill started BDB in 2013, he did so because he firmly believes in Mother Nature’s laws and found that following those laws simply makes dogs  happy. There are no secrets. Honoring and fulfilling a dog as a dog is how we achieve the results we achieve. 

If you have a dog, they are learning from you - always. The question is – what are you teaching them? The environment you create and the relationship you build with your dog dictates how your dog behaves.

When you join the BDB Family, you aren’t simply buying our “training”. You are buying into life change and we want our clients to use the entire ecosystem that includes our training, boarding, daycare, experiences, and continuous human education because we know it delivers incredible results.

“Trust. Loyalty. Respect.” is our tagline and our mantra. It tells our clients what to expect not only from their dog – but from all BDB employees. 

So how do we achieve the results we achieve? See our methodology below.

Methodology

“Trust. Loyalty. Respect.” is our tagline and our mantra. It tells our clients what to expect not only from their dog – but from all BDB employees. 

So how do we achieve the results we achieve?

We teach dogs to live in a calm, connected, follower state of mind. And we teach our human clients how to build a truly loving relationship that puts the dog’s needs first! 

We teach dogs to live in a calm, connected, follower state of mind. And we teach our human clients how to build a truly loving relationship that puts the dog’s needs first! 

  1. But How?

  1. 1. We help our clients understand the 3 energy states that are necessary when working with dogs. 
  2. 2. We then teach our clients how to effectively communicate with their dog in a clear, consistent, and fair way. 
  3. 3. Next, we show our clients how to create comfort for their dog via order, safety, and peace. 
  4. 4. And last, we teach our clients how to truly fulfill a dog’s body, mind, and heart. 

Those are the ingredients for any loving relationship. But, there are also more mechanical/technical pieces of our methodology. All board and train dogs go home: 

1. Walking on a loose leash
2. Crate trained
3. Treadmill trained
4. Having socialized with our pack
5. Potty trained
6. Highly improved in-home & public behavior
7. And of course, we address the specific issues each client is having with their dog.

We believe the real difference in our methodology is how much time we spend educating our human clients once their dogs have completed rehabilitation. Don’t wait! Let us help you and your dog find contentment and balance today.

BRAD'S STORY

Learn More About Brad

Loving dogs is common, but having the ability to communicate and lead dogs in an instinctual way is not. Brad learned that lesson at an early age while working on his uncle’s ranch in northern Oklahoma. Watching cattle dogs work was a new experience and opened his eyes to the organic bond that exists between humans and dogs. 

In 1993, Brad started training family dogs for the first time and fell in love with a new language – the common, unspoken language between humans and dogs. Dogs have been Brad’s constant companion ever since. 

Brad was a college athlete who studied Exercise Physiology and eventually became a personal trainer. Here he developed a deep desire to help transform people’s lives. As a personal trainer he was able to witness not only the physical transformations but the mental transformations that went along with a healthier lifestyle.

While working as a personal trainer, Brad stayed up all night teaching himself graphic design, web development, and video editing skills. As a result, he was offered a job as a Web Developer for the #8 brand in the world at that time, Nokia.

And so began his career in marketing and advertising. During his marketing and advertising career, Brad worked for some of the biggest brands in the world, built and led numerous teams, ran three companies, and spoke in front of large audiences. 

After 18 years of Corporate America, Brad needed a change. He felt a pull to do work that was in line with his deepest values and that truly made a difference in people’s lives.

Brad founded Bevill Dog Behavior in 2013 to combine his passion for animal and human psychology with his knowledge of behavioral studies. The company has since grown to help thousands of dogs and humans find happiness through balanced relationships.

Brad’s unique system and success rehabilitating some of the most difficult dogs alive has gained him multiple notable clients, a book agent, and appearances on numerous TV shows.

For over 6 years Brad flies to the beautiful Dog Psychology Center in Santa Clarita, California to be a trainer for Cesar Millan’s Training Cesar’s Way Workshops.  

Brad is a Consulting Producer and talent on CW’s TV show, To the Rescue and has been featured on many other shows including Bravo’s, The Real Housewives.

Brad is also a member of the International Association of Canine Professionals (IACP) and has studied under some of the top trainers and behaviorists in the country.

Brad lives in Dallas, Texas with his two kids, Henry and Annie, and their four dogs, Sweetie, Roadie, and Rooster.
