Board & Train Programs
Setting the foundation for a lifetime of success
Whether it’s bringing a new puppy into your life or you’re looking to refine your already established dog, a Board & Train Program allows us to get your dog into a routine that works for you and your specific scenario. We work on any customizable goal that is a need and keep you updated every step of the way.
We at The Dependable Canine offer a variety of Board & Train packages aimed at setting your four legged companion up for a lifetime of success. We find Board & Trains to be very successful with all dogs, as it allows us to apply our expert touch and build a successful foundation for your dog to grow from. Each package ends with a go home lesson in your home where we will show you all of the new things your pup knows!
We offer our Board & Train Programs to the following demographics:
- Puppies Ages 15 Weeks Through One Year Old
- Adult Dogs (over a year) under 50 pounds
We limit our number of maximum dogs boarding at one time to 3 dogs maximum. We do this to ensure our in training dogs get adequate amounts of time to train, exercise, play, and relax as well as an effort of safety.
We know how important trust is when it comes to the care of your new family member. With that in mind. The Dependable Canine offers a 30 Minute in person Meet & Greet ($30) to meet with us in person to build rapport, make a face-to-face connection, go over any aspects of the program you have questions about, and schedule a start date and a go-home date.
We also offer Boarding (no training) for puppies younger than 1 year/no heavier than 50 pounds for $60 a day.
