BOARD & TRAIN

Our Board & Train program, led by Brad, is a 4 week minimum. Throughout the weeks in training, your dog will progress through our system based on what your dog’s specific needs are. Each team member offers unique experience and energy while teaching the same concepts. This allows your dog to practice the concepts in different contexts throughout their training – creating a more well-rounded dog. Should your dog need more than 4 weeks to achieve balance, we will continue training until he/she is ready. There is no hard timeline, as all dogs progress at different rates of speed. The go-home session includes a ~2.5 hour human training session at pick-up plus a mandatory, in-home follow-up session.

Our Rehabilitation program is an 8 week minimum Board & Train. 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. If your dog has truly attacked humans or dogs or exhibits severe anxiety or fear, they will need more time and a different approach. We will take it slow to ensure your dog, our pack dogs, and our staff are safe. Should your dog need more than 8 weeks to accomplish their goals, we will continue training until he/she is ready. There is no hard timeline for rehabilitation, however, typical rehabilitation is between 8-16 weeks. It includes multiple human training sessions during the process, a ~2.5 hour human training session at pick-up plus a mandatory, in-home follow-up session.
