Dog Board and Train 'Boot Camp' — Intensive Dog Obedience Training

Is your dog particularly difficult, poorly socialized, or aggressive? Sometimes, behavioral issues are too advanced, require intensive dog obedience training, or you just don't have the time, patience, or willingness to do it yourself. If so, sending your dog away for training in our Dog Board and Train 'Boot Camp' program may be the best solution for you. In our dog board and train program, your dog will live among and work with the Best Buddy Dog Training pack while learning to be peaceful and obedient around other dogs, cats, wild animals, and people. Rather than a traditional boarding kennel, your dog will be a part of our family and pack until they are ready to go home and continue their training and development in your home environment. All board and train dogs will be crated when not supervised, and overnight, for their safety and security.

Your dog will also have the support of the Best Buddy Dog Training pack of four dogs. Living and training as part of our balanced pack offers an intensive dog obedience training experience, providing excellent opportunities to identify and correct issues such as dog aggression and unbalanced possessiveness (e.g., food aggression). You can rest assured that your dog will be getting the personalized attention, care, affection, and training they need to become well-behaved and balanced.

Our dog board and train takes place here at Best Buddy Dog Training and in nearby city streets, parks, malls, and stores. Your dog will undergo intensive dog obedience training, learning to behave politely at home and in public, on and off-leash, even with lots of distractions around. Shawn's dog training methods are affectionate and communicative, leading your dog to truly enjoy training. The goal is to get your dog trained to be obedient off-leash quickly. With Best Buddy Dog Training's P.R.I.M.E. System of dog psychology and dog training, your dog learns to be peaceful and happily obedient without treats, shock collars, or harsh treatment.

Achieving a Well-Trained Dog Through Our Dog Boot Camp

The well-trained family pet should be respectful, polite, and a joy to be around. They should not run off and get into trouble, destroy your property, or chew your furniture. They should not bite or nip your (or anyone else's) hands. They should come when you call, go away from you (or anything you choose) when you tell them to, and stay where you tell them to stay. For many people, this will dramatically change their lives with their dogs. But our dog board and train program doesn't stop there. As one of the best board and train programs for dogs, we'll address and solve any dog behavioral problems you need resolved (or we discover).

After completing our dog board and train 'boot camp', your dog is returned to you happy, well-behaved, well-socialized, and thoroughly trained. This intensive dog obedience training sets the foundation for lasting behavior change. We then work with you to teach you how to maintain your dog's new behavior and, if desired, continue with further training. By sending your dog away for training with us, you can be confident that they have received the best care and training possible.

Normally the Dog Board and Train Program lasts for 4 to 6 weeks, and includes life-time follow-up to help you maintain your dog's new skills and behaviors.*
