What’s the difference between Private Lessons and Board & Train?
Private lessons are one-on-one sessions where you work directly with your dog, typically in your home or everyday environments. This option focuses on coaching the owner alongside the dog.

Board and Train programs involve your dog staying with us for the duration of the program for focused, immersive training. These programs include structured transition sessions and follow-up support to help you maintain progress once your dog returns home.

How do I know which option is right for my dog?
That depends on your goals, your schedule, and your dog’s behavior. We’ll help you determine the best fit during a free consultation.

What training methods do you use?
Training is tailored to the individual dog. We emphasize clear communication, structure, and positive reinforcement, while incorporating other tools when appropriate to support understanding and reliability.

The goal is not rigid obedience, but helping dogs make better decisions in real-world situations.

How long does it take to see results?
Every dog is different. Many owners notice improvements early, but lasting results depend on consistency and follow-through over time.

What do you expect from clients during training?
Training works best when owners are engaged, consistent, and open to learning. We provide guidance and structure, but progress depends on applying what’s taught between sessions.

Is there a minimum or maximum age for training?
No. Puppies and adult dogs can benefit from training. Programs are adjusted based on age, development, and physical comfort.

How does pricing and payment work?
Training program prices are listed on the website for transparency. A deposit is required to reserve a spot, with the remaining balance handled according to the program selected.

Flexible payment options, including financing, are available and can be discussed during the consultation to determine the best fit.

What types of training do you offer?
Training focuses on foundational obedience, behavior modification, and improving everyday life with your dog. Programs are designed to address common challenges such as leash manners, household behavior, impulse control, and reliability around distractions.

Do you offer service dog, therapy, or protection training?
No. We do not provide service, therapy, or protection training. If you’re looking for those services, we’re happy to refer you to trainers who specialize in that work.
