Board & Train

  • For dogs 6 months and older
  • Perfect for owners who are short on time to train their dog, may struggle with how to teach skills properly or are uncertain how to manage behavioral issues. Your dog stays with me overnight during a Board & Train, getting more time and direct help to learn new skills in a structured environment. A solid foundation of obedience is achieved quicker resulting in less work for you after the Board & Train is completed.
  • When your dog completes the Board & Train, we schedule a Go Home Lesson (or more) and equip you with the knowledge and skills needed to enforce and maintain your dog’s new skills at home.
  • Board & Train plans are personalized to meet your dog’s needs. Typically 2 weeks are recommended for basic, on leash obedience. For well balanced dogs needing off leash reliability, 3 weeks are recommended. Significant behavior modification such as separation anxiety, aggression, and reactivity require 4-6 weeks.
  • Your trainer will stay in touch with you throughout the program to give updates and videos of your dog’s progress as well as to educate and give feedback.
  • Your support doesn’t end when the Board & Train is completed! You will have access to join Pack Walks to practice with your dog around distractions in a controlled setting, safely socialize your dog around other dogs and people and get support from your trainer and other training graduates.
