Board & Train
Your dog lives with us on our Homestead for the ultimate training transformation!
My Board & Train program goes beyond teaching your dog basic obedience—it gives them an immersive experience that will create new, healthy behaviors. Your dog will live in our structured home environment, socializing with our pack, learning leash manners, and reliable off-leash recall through real-world practice.
BUT—we don’t just train your dog—we teach YOU how to maintain the results so you can enjoy a smooth transition when they come home.
How it works
Your dog will live with me here on the homestead in Central Oregon as part of my balanced pack.
Small-scale personalized training
I only take 1–2 dogs at a time for training, ensuring each dog gets an individualized, highly personalized experience. This allows me to truly get to know your dog (often better than anyone else) which means I can continue guiding you with tailored support long after they return home!
Real-world practice
We train in indoor and outdoor environments with real distractions like other dogs, people, bikes, and nature—so your dog learns to listen in all environments.
Home-style care
We keep your dog in a safe, balanced environment where they get consistent exposure to real-life situations and build healthier routines.Owner coaching included
You’ll get regular video updates via Instagram, in-person lessons, and my 50-page Go-Home Guidebook so you feel confident keeping up the progress when they come home.
