What types of training programs do you offer?
We offer a variety of training programs, including Puppy Staycation, Obedience Staycation, Behavioral Staycation, and Adventure Staycation. Each program is tailored to meet your dog's specific needs.
How does the evaluation process work?
Before starting any program, we conduct an initial behavioral evaluation to identify your dog’s specific challenges and goals. This helps us design a customized training plan that aligns with your lifestyle and your dog’s needs.
Will I be involved in my dog’s training process?
Absolutely! Owner involvement is a key component of our programs. Throughout your dog’s stay, you’ll participate in several hands-on lessons to ensure you can reinforce the training at home.
What methods do you use for training?
We use positive reinforcement and a balanced approach tailored to each dog’s unique personality and needs. Our goal is to create a foundation of trust and effective communication between you and your dog.
Can you help with aggressive dogs?
Yes, our Behavioral Staycation is specifically designed to address aggression and other challenging behaviors. Dogs with a history of biting or active aggression require a 4-week program to ensure effective results.
What age should my puppy be to start training?
We recommend starting training as early as 8 weeks old. Early training helps establish good habits and prevents problematic behaviors from developing.

- Obedience Staycation: 2-3 weeks
- Behavioral Staycation: 3-4 weeks

Will my dog train in real-world situations?
Yes, real-world exposure is a core element of our training philosophy. Your dog will learn how to navigate a variety of environments, such as homes, parks, stores, and public spaces, to ensure they’re well-behaved no matter where life takes you.
What is included in the cost of the staycation programs?
Each program includes 24/7 in-home training, hands-on lessons for owners, follow-up support, access to Adventure Series classes, training equipment (leash, collar, place bed), grooming services (bath, blow dry, nail trim) and more.
What happens after my dog completes their staycation?
