Dog Training Programs
Training Programs
Training Programs: We offer a range of options to accommodate the needs of each individual. It’s important to emphasize that after completing either the comprehensive two-week course or engaging in private hourly sessions, consistency in applying proper training techniques is key for sustained progress and behavioral improvement.
- 30-minute sessions: While your furry companion stays with us, consider enrolling them in one or more sessions with our experienced trainers. Whether your pup needs a refresher on recall, assistance with leash skills, or you’re keen on teaching them a fun new trick, we’ve got you covered. Our smaller sessions offer the ideal opportunity to lay the groundwork for a new skill and provide some extra mental stimulation during their stay. Upon pickup, their dedicated trainer will provide a detailed overview of what your pup has learned and offer guidance on how to maintain their progress at home. $40.00
- Hour Private Session: Schedule a personalized one-on-one session with one of our skilled trainers where we’ll focus on what matters most to you and your dog. During this time, the owner learns how to effectively communicate with their dog, reinforcing desired behaviors and addressing any challenges. Simultaneously, the dog learns to understand and respond to commands from its owner, fostering trust and respect in the relationship. This session is designed to train both owner and dog as we will show you how to stay consistent with proper training techniques. $75.00
- Board and Train Program: During our two-week program, your dog will embark on a comprehensive journey to establish a solid foundation of basic obedience skills. Our trainers will provide detailed explanations of the training techniques used and offer guidance on how to effectively handle your dog moving forward. The board and train program cannot be scheduled during major holidays or summer. Again, we strongly recommend the owner practices at home to further develop your experience and relationship as their handler. Training is a continuous effort, so we’re happy to continue working with you and your dog following completion of the program. $1,750.00
- Advanced Board and Train Program: This is a three-week course designed for advanced obedience or to begin more specialized training in particular areas. We are experienced with various breeds, temperaments, techniques, and challenges. While similar to our 2-week program, this option provides more time for your dog to further their proficiency and begin training in a specified area. Please call or email to schedule an evaluation with one of our trainers to see if we can help. $2,600.00
*If your dog is already proficient in basic obedience but needs a little help with a particular challenge please discuss with one of our trainers for a modified program.

FAQ
How do I sign up?
Sessions lasting 30 minutes can be arranged either upon arrival or when making your reservation via phone or email. For hour-long private sessions, advance scheduling is necessary and can be done through phone or email.
Our Board and Train program is exclusively offered during our off-season, as our trainers are also deeply engaged in the daily care of each dog. This program is available from September through March, excluding holidays. Kindly reach out via phone or email to schedule an evaluation with one of our trainers. After meeting your dog and discussing goals and techniques, we can schedule the program.
What equipment do we use?
We primarily use a slip lead to foster clear communication between the handler and the dog. However, we understand that each dog is unique and may respond differently to various techniques. After assessing your dog, we’ll discover what methods work best for them and how to keep them motivated, with plenty of toys and treats on hand.
In addition to slip leads, we may also use slip collars, long lines, and occasionally introduce the prong collar. While the prong collar is a great tool when used correctly, we believe it’s only necessary for a small percentage of dogs. Nevertheless, for those who benefit from it, we’re happy to incorporate it into their training. We’ll discuss all tools and their proper usage with you, ensuring that the program we develop suits both you and your pup’s lifestyle perfectly.
