Board and Train Programs

If you're looking for a more hands off program where we do most of the work, the board and train program is perfect for you. We have 3 different length programs where your dog will live with us trainers. Training happens all day, everyday. This insures the best training possible and will closely mimic the scenarios and environments that you and your furry friend will run into. All Programs come with a one hour go-home lesson and unlimited additional follow up lessons as needed to ensure you are happy with the training.

3 Week Behavior Modification Board and Train

 Our behavior modification program is ideal for dogs with persistent behavioral challenges, focusing on advanced techniques to reshape unwanted behaviors. Using a structured and systematic approach, we help your dog develop positive responses to different situations, people, environments, and other animals.

This program incorporates scientifically backed methods such as counterconditioning, differential association, positive and negative reinforcement, positive and negative punishment, sensory flooding, exposure therapy, systematic desensitization, and behavior extinction.

Since obedience is a crucial part of any training program, we also teach fundamental obedience skills that complement behavior modification. These skills not only enhance your dog’s ability to navigate public settings but also serve as an opportunity to showcase their progress.

To support lasting success, this program includes transitional training, which consists of personalized one-on-one sessions. During these sessions, we will guide you through our behavior modification techniques and equip you with the knowledge and skills needed to reinforce and maintain your dog’s progress at home.
