Our award winning Board & Train Program provides all of the benefits and results without having to be separated from your dog for long periods of time. During this program, your pup will stay at our state of the art training center Monday through Friday. Each day they will be immersed in socialization while receiving customized, hands-on instruction by our expert staff. At the end of each week, you will pick your dog up and receive a short training session (approximately one hour) to provide you with exercises to practice with your dog at home over the weekend. By the end of the program, you will have a firm grasp of the skills needed to ensure long-term success for you and your companion.

Daytrain
DayTrain is a flexible, individualized training option available exclusively to dogs who have previously completed training with our facility. Designed to support and advance existing skills, DayTrain allows dogs to spend the day training one-on-one with an assigned trainer while participating in normal facility flow, including DayPlay and boarding routines. Offered most commonly as single training days or as structured multi-week packages, DayTrain is tailored to each dog’s needs and owner goals, with clear documentation, consistent handling across staff, and optional package upgrades that include a guided skill progression and a final lesson to build long-term reliability and owner confidence.
Some of the skills your dog can focus on:
-
Reinforcing foundational obedience in real-world environments
-
Proofing commands with added distractions, distance, and duration
-
Polishing leash manners and improving responsiveness on walks
-
Supporting ongoing behavior modification and reactivity work
-
Introducing or reinforcing training tools as part of a private lesson plan
-
Building calm crate routines and structured downtime
-
Improving comfort with handling, grooming, and nail care

Each session follows a structured progression, building on previous work to reinforce reliability, clarity, and real-world application.
