NEED HELP WITH TRAINING?

NO TIME TO TRAIN?

CHECK OUT OUR BOARD AND TRAIN OPTION

Board and Train Program

Sign up in April for Board & Train and receive one free obedience class after completion of their Board & Train session with us!

We offer a great solution for you if you do not have the time to train your dog or are needing help with basic training or behavioral issues.

Our board and train is just that—You drop your dog off with us for a minimum of 2 weeks and we will work with your dog to help you reach your training goal. We will meet with you for an individual consultation and then devise the training program specifically to your dog’s needs.

You provide your dog, food, and any special items for them to enjoy in their suites and we will do the work for you. Once your dog has successfully completed his basic training with us, you will be involved in the training and learn how to continue with the training at home.

Included with the board and train program is a minimum of 2 trainings sessions after your dog is released from the training program to review progress and make any necessary adjustments in training and address any questions or concerns that arise.

Please call for more details.
