Worried about where your dog fits in? Options can be a bit overwhelming, but that’s why we are here to help! Evaluations are ALWAYS FREE, with no obligation (seriously!) We absolutely want to best direct your family to the best program, big or small, to best suit your individual goals, and your dog’s unique quirks! It is our Honor to assist you in this life changing experience!
Benefits of a board and train program are widely known, allowing the professional trainers to train your dog each and every single day while you are busy with the kids, at work or running errands without the added schedule of set-aside time to train with your dog. Professional Board & Train programs allows the progress to be sped up, properly and efficiently saving time, hassle and ensuring each dog is progressing successfully and thoroughly according to normal schedule so that YOU can receive all the benefits at the finish line! Owners are involved in training during their dogs stay, and are frequently updated with photos and videos on social media to give you peace of mind, and many smiles as your dog enjoys all their positive experiences with loving, compassionate trainers.
You may find our Board and Train Programs to be longer than many other trainers, why is this? Because we believe in efficiently teaching and training your dog through amazing relationship building, fun games and enjoyment. We want our dogs to enjoy listening to us, not just throw on We want to ensure the dog is ACTUALLY trained, versus a shortcut to appear trained. You wouldn't expect a human to break a bad habit in 10 days, why would our fur-family be any different!
We can teach your dog in MULTIPLE LANGUAGES
