Understanding Our Program
The Foundation: 10-Day
Board & Train Program
This short-term, immersive stay is designed to introduce your dog to foundational life skills while building the confidence and habits needed for a well-rounded companion. It is the perfect choice for owners looking for meaningful progress and a professional head start on structured training.
Over the course of 10 days, we focus on impulse control and core obedience, ensuring your dog learns to listen even when the world around them gets exciting.
What Your Dog Will Learn |
|---|
Core Obedience – Establishing a strong foundation in "Sit," "Down," and "Place." |
Impulse Control – Learning to remain calm and polite in high-energy situations. |
Recall – Developing the responsiveness needed for outdoor freedom. |
Foundational Life Skills – Building the habits that lead to a polite, manageable home life like Door Manners. |
Distraction Training – Practicing commands in real-world settings to ensure they "stick." |
Once the program is complete, you’ll receive the following |
Private, 2-hour follow-up session covering everything your dog learned, along with coaching on how to maintain their new behavior and confidence moving forward. |
A comprehensive video series on how to utilize the commands at home. Open communication with our trainers for quick questions and limited complimentary phone consultations. |
Access to our training refresher add-ons during your dogs overnight boarding. |
