About Saint Dog Training

Farm-based training in Caldwell

Saint Dog Training is a dog training business on a farm in Caldwell, with the motto "The Dogs Lead the Way."

Pet dogs staying for training are kept out of a kennel setting.

Approach

Saint Dog Training describes itself as balanced trainers who believe in a very positive foundation, building each program around the individual dog and training owners as well as dogs. It emphasizes a thorough foundation over rushed results.

Programs

Board and train packages range from two weeks to advanced twelve week programs, and behavioral board and trains handle reactivity through serious dog or human aggression. Other options include one-on-one private coaching, virtual coaching, issue-specific training for dogs that struggle at the groomer or vet, puppy packages covering food-based obedience, crate training, leash manners and impulse control, and a training daycation with drop-off in the morning and pick-up in the evening. Protection training, with a twelve week minimum, is offered for dogs with the right character and drives. Group classes on basic obedience and handling need a minimum of four dogs, and youth trainer lessons teach young people to train dogs.
