Dog Board & Train Program

Convenient, Effective Training While You’re Away

Life can be busy, and sometimes finding the time to train your dog can be a challenge. Our Dog Board & Train program provides the perfect solution for busy pet owners who want their dog to receive professional training while they’re away.

​

How the Board & Train Program Works:

  • Comprehensive Training: Your dog will stay with us for an extended period (usually 2-4 weeks, depending on your dog’s needs) and receive one-on-one training sessions throughout the day.

  • Daily Training Sessions: We focus on core obedience commands, behavior modification, and addressing any specific challenges your dog may be facing—such as leash pulling, excessive barking, or anxiety.

  • Socialization & Real-Life Practice: During their stay, your dog will be exposed to different environments, people, and dogs to build confidence and reinforce positive behaviors in various settings.

  • Customized Approach: Each dog is different, so we personalize the training plan based on your dog’s unique needs and your goals. Whether you want to improve basic obedience or tackle more complex behavioral issues, we’ve got you covered.

  • Progress Updates: Throughout the program, you’ll receive regular updates on your dog’s progress, including video updates, photos, and detailed reports. We keep you in the loop every step of the way!

4. How do I know my dog is safe during their stay?

Your dog’s safety and well-being are our top priorities. We provide a clean, comfortable environment, and each dog receives individual attention and care. We follow strict safety protocols and only take in a small number of dogs at a time to ensure each dog gets the training and attention they deserve.

 

5. Can I visit my dog during the Board & Train program?

While we understand you may miss your dog, we generally recommend limiting visits during the training program. Frequent visits can disrupt your dog’s progress and create confusion. However, we provide regular updates, including photos, videos, and progress reports, so you’ll stay informed about their training journey.

 

6. How will I continue training when my dog comes home?

At the end of the program, we provide a detailed transfer session where you’ll learn the techniques and tools used in your dog’s training. This ensures you can continue reinforcing your dog’s new skills and maintain progress at home. We also offer follow-up support to answer any questions and provide guidance as needed.

 

7. What if my dog has behavioral issues or special needs?

Our Board & Train program is highly customizable. If your dog has specific behavioral issues like anxiety, aggression, or severe separation anxiety, we will design a specialized training plan tailored to their needs. We work closely with you to address any concerns and ensure the program aligns with your goals.

 

8. Can I sign up for Board & Train if my dog is older or already has bad habits?

Absolutely! Board & Train works for dogs of all ages and behavioral backgrounds. Whether you have a puppy, an adult dog, or a dog with long-standing behavior issues, our professional trainers will work with your dog to make lasting improvements.

 

9. Will my dog still get exercise and playtime during their stay?

Yes! Along with training, your dog will have time for walks, play, and downtime. They’ll enjoy a balanced schedule of training, exercise, and relaxation to keep them physically and mentally stimulated.

 

10. How do I enroll in the Board & Train program?

Enrolling is easy! Simply contact us to schedule a consultation. We’ll discuss your dog’s specific needs, training goals, and the ideal program duration. Once we agree on the best plan for your dog, we’ll schedule the start date and get the training process underway!
