Board & Train
Our fastest, most reliable program.
Our unique Board and Train program provides all the benefits of typical in-kennel professional training, without having to be separated from your dog for long periods of time. Our unique approach to behavioral wellness focuses on helping your dog achieve balance through instinctual fulfillment and enrichment as well as traditional training and behavior modification techniques.
For a period of 3 to 6 weeks, your pup will stay at our training center Monday through Friday, and will receive customized, hands-on instruction by our expert staff. At the end of each week, you will pick your dog up and receive a short training lesson to provide you with exercises you can practice with your dog over the weekend.
This hybrid approach has many benefits over a traditional long-term Board and Train programs. Most importantly, by receiving weekly instruction and practice, you will be sure that your dog will listen and behave for you at the end of the program. Having you spend the weekends with your dog also allows us to receive feedback from you regarding both areas of success, and areas that need more attention, thereby helping us to continuously customize your dog’s training. By the end of the program you will have a firm grasp of the skills and effort needed to ensure long-term success for you and your pup.
For those seeking obedience training, we will focus on the core commands of Sit, Down, Come, Heel, and Place (go to bed). All commands will be performed by your dog both on and off leash. For those seeking behavior modification, we will focus only on specific commands that will impact the target behavior problem, spending greater time addressing the underlying causes of the problem behavior. All programs focus heavily on physical exercise and mental enrichment as the cornerstone for emotional and behavioral wellness.
Benefits Of Board & Train

The dogs are spending the entire day in a controlled environment where every decision is guided and reinforced. Many dogs find this type of environment to be therapeutic. - Less Stress On You
Let us work through the challenging early stages of training, and the tedious repetition that you may not have time for. - Enhanced Customization
The amount of time we spend with your dog in the Board and Train program allows us to get to know him or her on a much deeper level. This way we can develop specific strategies and exercises directly targeted toward each individual. This is especially valuable in behavioral cases.
