Training

Training is framed as bridging the language barrier between owner and dog so the dog knows exactly what is expected. Sessions are one-on-one. Offerings include basic and advanced on and off leash obedience, protection levels 1, 2 and 3, behavior modification, temperament testing, Canine Good Citizen, service and therapy dog training and PTSD dog training.

Boarding

Boarding is $48 per night for one dog per run, $80 for two and $107 for three, with climate-controlled runs, two large play yards and summer pool time. Discounts go to new clients, referrals and active or retired military and police.
