About Country Roads Canine Training Center

Country Roads Canine Training Center works out of Charles Town and states its focus in three words across its own banner: "Therapy", "Service" and "Sport". The trainer is named on the site as Ericka.

What they train

The menu is service dog training, board and training, and boarding. The site says "Our experienced trainer has 10 years of experience and has worked with all types of clients to help them reach their highest potential," and there is a portfolio section showing past work.

How they work

Two practical things stand out. They advertise "transparent pricing and realistic solutions for owners," which in this market is not the norm. And they take enquiries only in writing – the site says "Please Use Forms For Requests! No Phone Calls Accepted," because the trainer is working with dogs. Expect to write first and talk later.

Who it suits

If you need a service or therapy prospect worked up, or a board-and-train for a dog that needs weeks rather than hours, this is the Charles Town listing pointed squarely at that. For weeknight group obedience, look at the Martinsburg and Kearneysville facilities instead.
