Board & Train Programs in Northern Nevada

A Board & Train program is an immersive training experience where your dog stays with us to build a strong foundation of skills, communication, and real-world reliability. This gives your dog a clear head start while we handle the initial, hands-on training. We focus on teaching essential behaviors, building structure, and creating a training language your dog understands — setting both of you up for long-term success.

When your dog returns home, we don’t just hand them off. We teach you exactly how everything works, how to apply it to your daily life, and how to maintain and build on your dog’s progress long-term. Because lasting results don’t come from the dog alone — they come from the relationship between you and your dog.

We don’t believe in cookie-cutter programs. Every dog we train is an individual, and every program is customized based on your dog’s temperament, behavior, and your specific goals. Whether you're looking for a well-mannered companion, help with behavioral challenges, or advanced training for a service dog, we build the program around you.

We train dogs within their comfort zone — because dogs learn best when they feel safe, understood, and engaged. Relationship is always the foundation. By focusing on clarity, communication, and trust, we create training that is not only effective in the moment, but sustainable in real-world environments.

Our Board & Train program is intentionally limited. We only take a few dogs at a time so each dog receives focused, individualized attention and consistent, high-quality training.

We partner with dog owners who are ready to learn, grow, and stay involved in the process — because meaningful, lasting change happens when both ends of the leash are engaged.

Every Board & Train program includes:

  • Customized training for your dog

  • Clear, hands-on transfer of skills to you

  • All necessary training tools

  • Go-home private lessons after pickup

  • Ongoing support to keep progress strong

Program pricing is discussed during your free consultation, once we’ve had a chance to understand your dog’s needs and your goals. Sliding scale spots are available for qualifying households.
