We welcome all breeds, all sizes, all ages and all behavior issues

BEHAVIORIAL TRAINING

Imagine what life would be like with a calm dog that was looking to you for direction. Imagine what it would feel like if you could walk your dog on a loose leash, even when passing other dogs or if your dog remained calm when guests arrived.

With BDB’s help, you don’t have to imagine anymore. All of these scenarios can become a reality with the proper behavioral training, human education, and client follow-through.

Regardless of your dog’s age or current behavior, we can show you how to create a relationship with your dog, so you and your dog can live your best lives.

Review our behavioral training options below and book your evaluation today. If you are having difficulty deciding which training option to choose, we will help you with that decision during the evaluation.

If you have additional questions, please see our FAQ page.

VIRTUAL CONSULTATION 

Not a local? Not a problem. Our 60 minute, virtual consultations take place via Zoom or FaceTime and are designed to evaluate and address your dog’s behavioral issues. If we believe your dog’s issues are more severe than a virtual consultation can address, we will let you know during the consultation and recommend a training program that is right for your dog.

BOARD & TRAIN

Our standard Board & Train program, led by Brad, is 5 weeks minimum. Your dog will progress through our system based on what his/her specific needs are. 

Should your dog need more than 5 weeks to achieve balance, we will continue training until he/she is ready. There is no hard timeline because all dogs have different types and levels of challenges and progress at different rates of speed. 

The go-home session includes a 2.5 hour human training session plus a mandatory, virtual follow-up via Zoom or FaceTime. If needed, we will also do an in-home follow-up session following the virtual follow-up.

Our Rehabilitation Board & Train program is 8 weeks minimum. Rehabilitation is designed for dogs with severe behavioral issues. There is a difference between reactivity and true aggression or nervousness and severe fear or uncertainty and severe anxiety.

 We will take it slow to ensure your dog, our pack dogs, and our staff are comfortable. 

 Go-home, plus a mandatory, virtual follow-up session and an in-home follow-up session.

  • Dogs must be 6 months or older, spayed/neutered (if older than 8 months at time of training), and up-to-date on vaccines in order to attend a Board & Train program. If your dog doesn’t meet those requirements and you are interested in Private Training, please indicate that when creating your profile.
