Nope! One of our biggest goals is to make sure you have the tools and confidence to work with your dog, not just watch us do it. Whether you're doing private lessons or board and train, we coach you every step of the way so your dog listens to you, at home and beyond.

Your pup stays in a clean, safe, and structured home environment—not a kennel. They’re treated like part of the family, with daily training sessions, playtime, rest, and real-life exposure. We keep a low number of dogs at a time to ensure everyone gets the individual attention they need.

While your puppy stays in our home, please provide their current food and any necessary medications for the duration of their stay. A favorite toy or bed is optional, but always welcome—they can help your pup feel more comfortable and at home!

Private lessons typically run about 60 minutes. Each session is customized to focus on what you and your dog need most—whether it’s obedience, manners, leash walking, or behavior issues. You’ll leave each session with clear steps to practice between visits.
-
We understand that life happens! If you need to cancel or reschedule a private lesson, we kindly ask for at least 24 hours’ notice. Cancellations made with less than 24 hours’ notice may be subject to forfeiting the session.
For board and train programs, because space is limited, cancellations made less than 7 days before the start date will result in rescheduling for our next available start date.
