WHY A BOARD AND TRAIN PROGRAM
Below are several factors to consider when deciding on private lessons or a board and train program. Time is the first and most important. Do you have time to train your dog daily? Consistency is also a significant factor in training a dog. Can you be consistent with all of the exercises? Can you socialize your pup correctly and expose your dog to various environments? If you can not, these are all reasons why a board and train program might be the best path to train your dog. If you have any questions on what training direction is best for your pup, please get in touch with me, and I will be more than happy to help.
- Consistency: Since the dog is under my continuous supervision, it ensures that the training is consistent and structured. This can lead to faster and more effective results than training at home, where distractions and inconsistent handling may occur.
- Exposure to Various Environments: Your dog will be exposed to different environments, people, and other dogs. This helps in socialization and desensitization to various stimuli.
- Behavior Modification: Board and train programs are often used for dogs with specific behavioral issues such as aggression, anxiety, or excessive fear. I work closely with the dog to address and modify these behaviors.
- Time Constraints: A board and train program can be a convenient solution for owners who may not have the time or experience to train their dog effectively.
- Owner Education: Many board and train programs also include an element of owner education. Training involves teaching the owner how to maintain and reinforce the training once the dog returns home.
Intensive Training: The dog receives intensive and consistent training from a professional trainer. This can be particularly useful for dogs with behavioral issues or for those who need to learn specific commands and behaviors.
Consistency: Because the dog is under constant supervision, the trainer can ensure that the training is consistent, which is crucial for effective learning.
Socialization: Board and Train programs often expose dogs to various environments, people, and other dogs. This helps with socialization and getting the dog used to different situations.
