program
We believe a well‑trained dog knows how to navigate everyday life. Our approach tackles issues like reactivity, aggression and impulse control while building a foundation of polite behaviour.
A board‑and‑train can spark change quickly, but long‑term success comes from teaching dogs and owners together. We give you the tools to reinforce good choices at home.
Training lasts when dogs practise around new people, dogs and environments. That’s why our program puts your dog to work in varied settings so commands aren’t just tricks but habits that hold up.
Our commitment doesn’t end at graduation. We invite you back for tune‑ups and advice whenever you need it. Consistent reinforcement is what keeps good habits from fading.
Where we are
That’s why we not only teach your dog the skills it needs to be well-behaved, but we will give you, your spouse, your kids, and anyone else in your family all the tools necessary to maintain a long, healthy, and happy relationship with your new and improved family member.

Effective: Skills that fit seamlessly into your daily life.
Enjoyable: Training that feels like play, not work.
Perfectly Matched: We pair your pup with a trainer who vibes with their energy and your goals.

Just like Home!
Real-Life Learning in a Home Setting
Your dog trains in an environment that mirrors your home—complete with couches, doorbells, and everyday chaos. Why?

Frenquently Asked Questions
Where will my dog be staying?
Dogs stay in our certified trainer's homes. Each dog will have access to ample exercise, treats, toys and tons of training and love.How much will training cost?
Prices vary depending on the duration, type of training, and needs of each dog. We'd be happy to talk you through our programs and identify the right option for you and your furry family member.Will my dog be training alone?
Most of our expert trainers typically have 2-3 additional dogs at one time. This offers an enriching experience for your dog as they are able to socialise and also learn from other dogs. All dogs are closely supervised and trainers have years of experience managing all types of dogs, ages, behavioral issues etc. They are always able to keep your dog safe and happy.How long are the programs?
Basic obedience programs are 2-4 weeks, with Anxiety and Aggression cases typically needing 4-6 weeks. There are, however, exceptions to every rule and we always want to evaluate each case individually. You can learn more about all programs we offer by contacting a pet consultant or viewing our full list of programs.Does my dog have to go away?
Board and train programs are what we specialize in. It offers a fully immersive experience for dogs in order to truly change behaviors. Although this is a great start, and particularly effective for busy pet parents, continuing education with your dog afterward will also be important. We make sure you have the knowledge to keep working from home.How fast can you schedule training?
As we only work with the very best trainers we sometimes do have a waiting list, but we do our best to get dogs into a program within 30 days of sign-up.Do you have payment plans?
Yes, we provide payment plan options. Pay over 6 months with 0% APR interest, and no hidden fees. Pay over 12-36 months at 15.2% APR interest and no hidden fees.
