Boarding Clients

Our trainers will come up with a personalized training program that fits you and your dogs needs & goals. Want basic and advanced obedience training during your dogs stay while you are away? Contacts us for more information. 

The Learning Phase of the training Is done for you:  In board and train your dog is trained by one of our professional trainers that will take their time to train the dog for you. The dog is basically trained certain behaviors that may be basic obedience or custom tailored for your needs. Because our trainers have experience, success rates are higher than what the regular dog owner may attain. We  have experience using a variety of techniques to ensure the dog learns, and if one method does not work, we have others as back ups. 

A Possible Solution When You Go on Vacation: Are you going on vacation and want your dog to learn some basic manners? Our board and train program offers a win-win situation because your dog gets a place to stay when you are out of town while learning something new.  So you get boarding and training all in one.

Dog is Open to Learning: Because the dog is in a new environment and with a new person, he may be more open to learning new, desirable habits. Because dogs have a history of rehearsing behaviors with a certain person and in a certain place, a board and train program offers dogs a blank new slate to start from fresh. This takes some adjustments. For this reason, we do not allow visitation the during board and training as they fear the sight of the owner may cause the dog to regress in training or get a bout of separation anxiety.

Pricing Varies. Please call & we could discuss $$$
