Jolene and Gunner!
Both dogs have already come and gone. Jolene did the 9 day BT to get a jump start on puppy basics while the owners were traveling. Gunner did a 2 week BT to work on socializing and being neutral around other dogs and helping him manage some leash reactivity.

More Lorelei and Nova
I had two for quite a while. Lorelei had a 3 week stay and Nova a four week stay. She just went home yesterday.
I hope they do well with their new skills!

Did you know that we offer a 9 day training program!
What could we accomplish in 9 days?
Who would this cater too?
You might ask
The 9 day program is designed for people that are traveling and want to up their training skills while boarding!
Training is simple and works on basic skills like; Proofing behaviors and commands the dog already knows in public
Upping the dogs leash skills
Working on impulse control
Building confidence
Social skills
Building on whatever training the dog has or if you're just starting your training journey this program will get you started
This sweet Jolene came here for just that!
She was a blast to have and full of cute bouncy staffy energy
