Our board & train service is out most personalized service and is what we are most known for, especially when it comes to puppies!

We discuss your training goals in advance and provide regular, personalized video updates and tutorials (six videos/day) throughout the stay. We want to make sure you know what your pup is capable of! The videos can be accessed after the stay and are an additional resource to help you continue training at home. Pick up/drop off is complimentary and we will provide a mini session upon drop-off to debrief you on the stay and provide tips on how to continue training.

Please note - we have limited availability and only provide this service on a case by case basis. We are unable to accommodate last minute requests.
