Board and Train Programs

Board and Train provides an immersive training format with structured instruction over a defined period. Obedience programs are available in two-, four-, and five-week formats.

The 2-Week Foundation Board and Train provides on- and off-leash obedience for dogs without behavior-modification needs. Published skills include sit, down, place, heel, off, full off-leash recall, household manners, and work around distractions. The 4-Week Elite Board and Train provides customized on- and off-leash obedience, owner education, homework, supplies, and an owner turnover session. The 5-Week Complete Board and Train adds structured repetition, training in real-world environments, and an AKC Canine Good Citizen test. Continued practice helps reinforce the covered skills.

Puppy Training Programs

The AKC S.T.A.R. Puppy Package includes six weekly positive-reinforcement group sessions. Topics include potty training, nutrition, first aid, vaccination schedules, positive behavior shaping, socialization, imprinting, and commands such as come, sit, place, heel, and down. Testing for AKC S.T.A.R. certification is provided during the final class. Standard basic obedience begins at five months because of the dog’s growth and socialization window.

An online puppy training course is also available. It covers potty training, crate training, confidence building, pack leadership, basic commands taught through marker-and-reward methods, and common puppy problems.
