About Compass K9

Compass K9 works from 5788 Stage Rd, Suite 2 in Bartlett and builds its whole offer around one idea – "Where Boarding Meets Training – Because Every Day Should Build Progress" – so that a boarding stay is also a training block rather than a pause in one.

Who they say it is for

The site splits its audience three ways: owners who want "lasting results, a reliable companion, and a stronger bond", including "Behavior Solutions for reactivity, aggression, or anxiety" and "Clarity & Direction after failed training attempts or conflicting advice"; busy professionals who need boarding and daycare that maintains progress; and professional handlers, with programs aimed at "Law Enforcement & Security needing precision-trained detection, protection, or service dogs".

Programs and prices

Everything is named after the compass metaphor and priced on the page. Cardinal Direction group classes run at $195 per class. Precision Navigation private training is $125 per session at the facility or $150 in-home, with a six-session Sextant Navigation package at $1,150. The board-and-train block, Compass Course Correction, runs $3,250 for two weeks, $4,750 for three, $5,550 for four and $8,000 for five, with the note that "Dogs with aggression and a bite history are required to stay a minimum of 5 weeks". Daycare is $35 half day and $45 full day; overnight boarding $55; premium Stay and Play boarding $45 to $65. Dog transport is $1.00 per mile.

Equipment and experience, as claimed

The board-and-train fee is stated to include training tools – "Compass K9's E-Collar Technologies system, Compass K9 therapeutic place cot, training treats" – so this is a balanced-method program rather than a reward-only one. The site claims "over 30 years of professional K9 training expertise" across working-dog and pet work; that is the business's own figure. Ongoing support after a program, including continued access to the training facility, is published as part of the offer.
