If you wish to improve your dogs obedience or have it taught to your dog for the first time, we can help. Obedience can be difficult if you have little experience in dog training or if you have a problem dog.
Please Note; If your dog has behaviour problems and you would like make use of this service, it would be best that an assessment is done prior to the boarding date. This is due to the other behaviour problems interfering with the new behaviours that your trying to instill in the dog. For more information on "Assessments," follow the link.
For your peace of mind we will video your dog and provide a before and after showing the improvement and the technique used.

Basic Obedience Sit, Down, Stand, Stay, Heel, Watch, Touch and Recall. These are the 8 basic exercises that will be taught to your dog during its boarding period. The dog will be trained each day of the Board & Train period, which is 4 weeks long. Sometimes the training sessions will be short and done twice in one day and other times the training will be one session in a day. The one session days are longer and more intense and are done towards the end of the Board & Train period.
As all obedience should be tailor made to the dog and handler, it is always advised to call and talk with us about you and your dogs needs. Many things can and may need to be changed for your Board & Train to be successful.
Please note that unless the owner of the dog maintains the training program, the dogs correct responses will fade away. It is also to be noted that for the best results, the owner should engage in a private session or classes in order to learn how to correctly maintain the dogs training program. The fee for the Board & Train service is $1200 and includes one private training session that should be taken within a week of pickup of the dog. Many people can successfully maintain the dog with only this one session but if more are required, the "6 in a Year" training program should be considered as an additive and preventative to the dogs behaviour fading off.
