Behavior-Focused Board & Train for Dogs
Focused on reactivity, fear, impulse control, and building strong foundations for adult dogs and puppies, my Board & Train program is fully customized to each dog and owner’s goals. Every stay is structured and intensive, with multiple focused training sessions each day, tailored exercises, and guidance to help your dog learn skills that last. You’ll receive daily updates so you can see progress in real time, and I provide continued support after your dog goes home to make sure the improvements stick.
Intensive training. Daily updates. Continued support.
Is This Program Right for You & Your Dog?
This program works best for dogs who are reactive, anxious, or testing boundaries, and for owners who want meaningful, lasting progress. It’s designed for people who are ready to put in the work at home and follow through consistently. It may not be a good fit if you’re just looking for a place for your dog to stay, want a quick fix, or aren’t ready to be part of the training process.
How Does My Board & Train Program Work?
My Board & Train program is an intensive, personalized training experience designed for each dog and their owner’s goals. Every program is customized to your dog’s behavior, temperament, and learning style, with structured sessions, daily updates, and ongoing support to ensure progress continues at home.
What makes my Board & Train program different?
Every program is tailored to each dog’s behavior, learning style, and your goals as an owner. I focus on creating lasting change through structured, consistent training, daily updates, and follow-up support to make sure progress continues at home. This isn’t “boarding with training sprinkled in” but rather a full behavior-focused program designed for real results.
What results can I expect from a Board & Train?
Each dog is different, but you can expect measurable improvements in reactivity, impulse control, confidence, and overall behavior. The goal is lasting, functional skills that make life calmer for both you and your dog, not just temporary fixes. Continued guidance and support help solidify these results once your dog goes home.
Private Coaching & Support
If Board & Train isn’t the right fit right now, you can still work with me through private training or day training adventures. Private sessions are fully personalized to your dog and your goals, giving you hands-on guidance to improve behavior and strengthen your bond at home.
For dogs who need a structured outlet, I offer Urban Adventures, where I take your dog into the community to practice skills in real-world environments, and Play Paws Adventures, designed to give dogs a safe, enriching space to decompress and explore outside the city. These services are focused on providing mental stimulation, confidence-building, and behavior support that are all tailored to your dog’s needs.
