Not sure what program is best for your pup? We offer consultation evaluations for $95.00. If you sign up for a Board & Train after that evaluation, the price of the evaluation will be deducted from the overall cost of the Board & Train program!

Frequently Asked Questions
Looking for some specific information on our Board & Train programs? Try reading our FAQs to see if that answers your questions.
How many training sessions will my dog get per day?
Your dog will receive anywhere from 7 to 14 short training sessions per day. While this may seem extensive, they are not extremely long sessions. This allows your dog to learn at their pace without overdoing it with too intense training. Your dog will also have potty breaks, nap time, and playtime to break up those training sessions.
Will my dog be left alone in the facility over night?
Yes, your dog will sleep in their crate through the night inside our facility. However, we do have staff members who come to the facility twice per night for wellness checks on every dog to ensure they are happy, safe, warm, and comfortable.
Will this change my dog's personality and make them a "robot"?
Will you use a prong and/or E-Collar on my dog?
No, we make sure that we instil proper behaviors, manners, and skills, but still keep their fun, goofy, happy, and unique personalities in tact!
This greatly depends on the dog and their individual behavioural and training needs. We do everything in our power to avoid the use of prong and e-collars whenever possible, and only utilize those tools as a last resort when all other options have been exhausted. In addition, when signing up for a Board & Train program, owners sign a contract stating whether they do or do not give permission for the use of those tools. If the owners permits use, we will contact you prior to using them to confirm again. If the owner does not permit their use, we simply will not use them.
