Board & Train Programs

Two Weeks to a Structured, Confident, Well‑Behaved Dog

Your dog lives with us and learns the full Canine Mind system — temperament-based structure, socialization, obedience, and accountability.

$1,000 per week. Most dogs benefit from 2 weeks. We’ll recommend duration after your intake and Day‑1 assessment.

WHY BOARD & TRAIN WORKS

Some dogs need immersion — consistent daily structure, controlled exposure, and professional handling to break old patterns and build new ones. Our Board & Train program delivers that in a structured, repeatable process tailored to your dog’s temperament.
