Board N’ Train Programs:
Why do we offer Board N’ Train services?
Because we get it.
Dog training is extremely timing consuming. On average, if you were to train your dog yourself, you will need to put aside at least 1 hour per day just for training. That doesn’t include the time needed to exercise your dog. This can be very difficult for people who work full time, get home late, need to make dinner, tend to the children or are just too tired and want to relax.
With a busy life, it can be too difficult for some owners.
What could take you months if not longer, we can obtain your goals in just a few weeks.
Why?
Because we train every day. We have precise timing and have the knowledge when and how to troubleshoot difficult behaviors. Not all training works for the same dog. During your dogs stay, we really get to know what works for your dog. We use our extensive knowledge and experience of training a large range of temperaments and breeds to get the results your looking for.
Training your dog is our full time job. There is never a day your dog doesn’t get trained several times a day. In addition to training obedience skills, we exercise your dog daily and work on enrichment such as Agility. In addition, social dogs get free play time in between training sessions with matched playmates.
In our care, your dog gets trained by the best for the best results.
This investment is for the life of your pet. Once completing the program, your dog will be trained. You just have to follow the program guidelines.
