Board & Train.

Professional Training.

Boarding your dog for training provides added structure to the program while your dog is learning new behaviors and skills. For some dogs, going home at the end of the day allows them to revert to their pre-established routine, making training more difficult. Every dog and family is different, we encourage you to choose what is best for your individual needs.

Expectations.

By the end of the 2 or 4 week board and train, regardless of the tool being focused on (leash or remote collar) the dog will learn the five basic commands that every furry best friend should know. Recalling to the handler when called, holding place for an hour, walking nicely in a heel position, and holding sit and down for an extended period of time.

Client Updates.

We want to keep our owners informed as to what their dog is learning as well as to continue having success upon their return to home life with their family. The families of our board and train dogs will receive a video on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday as well as a picture with a detailed description of an activity that they can practice at home with their dog going forward. On Saturday and Sunday they will receive a video explanation of the tools we use that they can refer back to later on.
