Is a Board and Train Program Right for Your Dog?
If you’re struggling with obedience issues, leash pulling, excessive barking, or even off-leash reliability, a Board and Train program could be the solution. These immersive training programs allow professional trainers to work intensively with your dog, creating lasting results that are difficult to achieve through at-home training alone.
But not all Board and Train programs are the same. Choosing the right one ensures your dog receives safe, effective, and humane training methods that lead to real-world success.
What to Look for in a Quality Board and Train Program
When selecting a Board and Train program, look for these key factors to ensure the best experience for both you and your dog:
1. Experienced Trainers Who Deliver Proven Results
Your dog’s training should be handled by skilled professionals with a track record of success. At Innovative K9 Academy, our trainers have competed on the world stage and bring that same level of precision and dedication to training your pet.
2. The Right Balance of Structure and Fun
Dogs learn best when training is engaging and enjoyable. Our 26-acre training facility provides space for structured lessons, socialization, and playtime, ensuring a balanced and stress-free learning environment.
3. Safe and Effective Training Methods, Including E-Collars
We use E-Collars as part of our training, and contrary to common misconceptions, they are safe, humane, and incredibly effective when used properly. E-Collars allow for precise, low-level communication between you and your dog, reinforcing commands without causing stress or fear. This method ensures reliable off-leash obedience, even around distractions.
4. A Comprehensive Training Approach
Our Board and Train programs are structured in three key phases:
- Phase 1: Your dog stays at our facility for intensive, hands-on training, where we lay the foundation for obedience and behavior correction.
- Phase 2: You participate in private lessons to learn the commands and techniques we’ve instilled in your dog, ensuring a smooth transition back home.
- Phase 3: Ongoing support through group classes, where you and your dog can continue practicing skills in a controlled, real-world environment.
Group Classes: The Key to Lasting Success
Training doesn’t stop when your dog completes a Board and Train program. Consistency and reinforcement are crucial for maintaining obedience and good behavior. Our group training classes provide ongoing support, giving you and your dog the opportunity to practice around distractions while receiving expert guidance.
