Board and Train
What do we train for. What do I need to bring for my dog?
Each program is tailored specifically for each family. Our most common requests are:
- Basics: sit, down, stay, name recognition, recall, crate training, leash skills, skills in public, social skills, boundary holding, eye contact.
- Aggression and reactivity
- Puppy foundations
- Anxiety and fears
- Unruly and out of control!
- Refresher! Bring them in to tighten it back up
What you need to bring for your dog during his or her stay:
- More than enough food
- Proof of vaccinations and current on flea prevention
- Small blanket that smells like home and is easily washable
- Caller with ID tag
What’s it like?
- Multiple work sessions 6 days per week, with just one session on the “rest day.”
- Everyone works for their food as well as high value food reward, getting the remainder of their day’s rations at dinner.
- We train on the property inside the barn, dog room and house. Outside in the yards and training field. We also go out and about to various locations multiple times per week.
- They work individually, alongside other dogs, are exposed to a variety of people and often proof their skills on additional handlers.
- They get exercised daily, go for training walks and of course have some free time to just be a dog.
- We utilize crates when traveling on the road, overnight and during rest times.
- They overnight in the dog room attached to our house, temperature controlled, with occasional music, always a soft night light and even has an oil diffuser.
- We have multiple outdoor potty pens, a fully fenced play yard, training field and barn that we utilize during inclement weather.
