Resident Board & Train Program, Dallas, TX

If you lead a busy life, don’t have time for daily training sessions, or simply want your good dog to become a great dog, our Resident Board and Train program in Dallas, TX is the perfect solution.

​

This comprehensive, results-driven program provides personalized, professional training while your dog stays in a structured, home-based environment. It’s ideal for families who want lasting obedience, calm manners, and a well-balanced companion.

Why Choose Our Board & Train Program?

Our Board and Train program has a minimum stay of 21 days. Most dogs complete the program within 21–30 days, but training continues until your dog meets our behavioral standards, not just until the clock runs out.

​

Every dog learns at a different pace, and we tailor the training to your dog’s personality, aptitude, and progress. You’re not paying for a set number of days, you’re investing in results that last.

Customized Training That Adapts to Your Dog

Factors like weather, environment, and temperament can influence how quickly your dog learns, and that’s okay. I never penalize you or your pup for taking the time needed to reach excellence. My goal is steady progress and confident success.

Real-World Learning in a Home Environment

During your dog’s stay, they’ll learn to behave politely in real-life settings (inside and outside the home), while interacting with other dogs and people.

​

My in-home Board and Train approach ensures that the skills your dog learns here translate directly to your everyday life. You’ll enjoy a dog who listens, behaves, and blends beautifully into your household routine.

Results That Last Beyond the Program

Whether your goals include basic obedience, leash manners, recall, or behavior modification, my Dallas-based Resident Board and Train program helps create a calm, confident, and responsive companion you’ll be proud to call yours.

As part of the dog training, your dog will:

Go on trips and learn to have fun without stress or confusion. 

​

​

Your dog will travel often in cars and SUVs, interact with adults, children and lots of other dogs.  

​

​

He/she will learn to behave/work in public places, inside stores (that allow dogs) and even restaurants (which allow dogs). 

​

​

Your dog lives with me and interacts with my family, my dogs and other dogs in training every day and night during their stay and will be looked after 24 hours a day, unlike a standard kennel facility.

This is a key component your dog can understand, relate and transfer after returning home.
