Board and Train Programs for Dogs Ages 4 Months and Up

Our dogs are an important part of our families. That is why we understand your need for having an obedient pet. 

During your dog’s stay at Common Canine, they will be immersed in a real home setting with access to land and frequent public visits. Our goal with these custom programs is to educate your dog to set them up for long term success. If you are thinking of adding a new puppy or dog into your family, or If you currently have a dog that is displaying problematic behaviors and simply won’t listen, Common Canine has the answer.

Let us turn your pet into a motivated, obedient and happy dog! Schedule a consultation call so we can decide which length of stay is recommended for your pet.

 

3-week BASIC program

The 3-week board and train program provides basic fundamentals to any, and all dogs. This program includes daily training sessions, socialization, and exercise. After your pet’s customized program, your dog will be equipped to establish a better relationship with you built on the foundation of basic obedience and proper fundamentals. 

At the end of the 3-week program, we will conduct a go-home lesson at your house where we then educate YOU on how to grow your relationship while maintaining the obedience that we instilled in your four legged friend.

At the end of the program, your dog will know how to:

  • Heel with a loose leash

  • Stop automatically during a pause on walks

  • Lay and sit on ‘place’ for an extended period of time

  • ‘Sit’ on command and with leash pressure

  • ‘Down’ on command and with leash pressure

  • Properly respond to the ‘off’ command if jumping

You will also receive one Instructional video with your dog that you can rewatch to freshen up on new training principles. Once the program is completed your dog is able to board with us in the future for $50 a night. Pet pick-up and drop-off is included in the program cost. 

The three-week board and train program starts at $2,800 for one pet.
