About Natural Breed Kennels

Natural Breed Kennels is a Midland resort that boards, day-cares, grooms, breeds and trains. Its training arm is a published program with its own prices rather than an add-on, so it is listed here for that; the breeding and puppy-sales side is a separate part of the business.

The puppy training programs and what they cost

Three lengths are published, each building on the last. The one-week program is $350 and introduces the essentials: crate training, the sit command, leash-walking basics and the start of potty training. The two-week program is $550 and adds down, more leash walking, stronger potty habits and safe socialization with other dogs. The four-week program is $1,550, described as for puppies that need reliable manners and real-world exposure; on top of the two-week content it covers recall, age-appropriate sit and down stays, the leave-it command and supervised public socialization. Custom training packages are available on request.

The rest of the site

The resort side is cage-free, with individual rooms, indoor runs for bad weather, a spa grooming service, day camp and a shuttle bus. The site also says the business boards and trains dogs for animal control and rescue groups across several counties.
