Board and Train

 

All Board and Train programs include a free phone or Zoom consultation

 

At Pawsitive Foundation we offer a Board and Train program in our own home. This enables us to teach house manners in a home rather than in a facility where training might not translate easily to your home. We provide more one on one time with our trainers. Since your dog lives with the trainer and receives training around the clock, we are much more effective with all aspects of basic obedience, house manners, and potty training.

In home Board and Train programs are especially helpful for high energy or nervous, shy dogs that may not thrive in a kennel or boarding facility which are often extremely noisy, full of unbalanced barking and reactive dogs which can be an upsetting environment for a sensitive or rambunctious pup. Dogs have a harder time learning in a stressful state. We concentrate on creating a calm and balanced dog. Your dog will be in a relaxing home with calming music for dogs and essential oils in diffusers helping to make your dog comfortable and ready to learn.

 

We offer programs from 1 to 4 weeks:

 

Our 1 week program is great as a jump start for basic obedience. One week is not enough time to add in distractions or duration but is a great way to get started. We will get through starting all basic obedience. This program includes a pick-up lesson only. It is highly suggested to supplement this program with private in-home sessions. Basic obedience covered:

  • Come
  • Sit
  • Down
  • Stay
  • Place
  • Leash walking

 

Our 2 week program is meant for more intense basic obedience training and behavior modification. We are able to work in some duration and distraction work to proof and generalize the commands your dog learns. This means leash walking at parks and public places and teaching your dog to comply in almost any type of environment. This program is suggested for basic obedience, jumping, mouthing, house manners, potty training, This program includes a pick up lesson and one private in home training session to transfer the training to you and your home.

 

Our 3 week program is meant for basic obedience with a higher level of proofing commands through field trips and training in public places and for major behavior modification such as leash reactivity (sometimes called leash aggression) major fear issues, resource guarding, and other issues that take time to work through. This program is suggested for leash reactivity, resource guarding, and other issues that take more time to work through. This program includes a pick-up lesson and two private in home sessions to transfer the training to you and your home.

 

Our 4 week program is meant for basic obedience with major distraction work and proofing of commands. We will spent a lot of time in public areas making sure your obedience and behavior modification training is really put to the test. This program is suggested for Leash reactivity (sometimes called leash aggression) or behavioral issues in the home. This program also works well for people that want their dog socialized and trained in basic obedience and manners with lots of time to proof all the commands or want more private training included. This program includes a pic- up lesson and 3 private in home sessions.
