Board & Train Services

2-Week Board and Train

Do you have a dog that needs some obedience and manners?  But you don't have the time or energy to devote hours of training every day to your dog plus the time needed to figure out how to do it properly

Let me do the training for you.

This training package is for dogs who need basic obedience and do not have any severe behavioral issues like extreme anxiety, fear, phobias, reactivity, resource guarding, or aggression.

Perhaps your dog just pulls on the leash a lot, gets really excited when guests come over, and will jump on them, barks a lot, chew things, counter surfs, has "selective hearing" and other nuisance behaviors.

During the 2 weeks that your dog is with me at my home they'll learn:

  • Crate manners (no more barking, whining, or rushing to get out)

  • Food manners (teaching your dog to be polite and wait for their food)

  • Door manners (no more escaping or rushing out the front door)

  • Sit and autosit

  • Down and down/stay

  • Place and duration Place (perfect for when guests come over, while cooking and to teach your dog how to have an "off" switch and be calm)

  • Structured walking (aka: "Heel")

  • Short distance recall (aka: "Come")

  • Go potty on command

  • Focus, attention, and engagement

  • Remove problem behaviors (trash diving, poop eating, counter surfing, digging, chewing, demand barking, etc)

This program comes with a 2-3 hour hands-on go-home lesson at the end of your dog's stay with me.

During this lesson, you'll learn everything you need to know to maintain and further improve your dog's foundation of training they learned with me.

You'll go home with our owners guide for success, a packet of resources, homework, and more. If your dog requires training equipment, all training equipment is an additional cost to the owner.

3-Week Board and Train

Do you have a dog that needs some obedience and manners but also has some behavioral issues like reactivity, anxiety, and fear?

Perhaps you want a dog with "off-leash" obedience? 

Let me do the training for you.

This training program is for dogs who need basic obedience and have behavioral issues or for dogs with no behavioral issues but you want off-leash obedience.

Perhaps your dog will lunge and bark at other dogs when they see them, maybe they have separation anxiety and will bark non-stop, or maybe your dog has an extreme fear of loud noises or other stimuli.

During the 3 weeks that your dog is with me at my home they'll learn everything in the 2 week Board and Train 

Additionally:

  • Counter conditioning to minimize reactivity to triggers

  • Desensitization protocols to minimize the intensity of emotional response to triggers

  • Confidence building 

    • Functional canine strength and conditioning

  • Higher level of reliable obedience in commands

  • If training for off-leash obedience, conditioning to the ecollar and increased proofing in recall plus longer distance
