At Onion Creek Kennels, our Board & Train program is designed to provide your dog with a solid foundation in basic obedience, social skills, and overall behavior while you’re away. This comprehensive service is the perfect solution for dog parents who need to travel or have a busy schedule but still want their dog to receive expert training in a safe and supportive environment.
What We Focus On:
Solid Foundation in Obedience
Our Board & Train program places a strong emphasis on establishing the core basics of obedience. Your dog will learn essential commands such as sit, stay, come, heel, and down. These foundational skills set the stage for better communication between you and your dog and form the basis for more advanced training in the future.Social Skills & Behavioral Development
Socialization is crucial for your dog’s well-being and confidence. Our program incorporates supervised socialization with other dogs and people, helping your dog build positive social skills, reduce anxiety, and improve their overall behavior in different environments. Whether your dog is shy, reactive, or simply needs more practice, our expert trainers guide them through positive experiences that help them become well-adjusted and comfortable in new situations.Reinforcing Good Behavior
We use positive reinforcement techniques to reward good behavior and shape lasting habits. Through a combination of operant and classical conditioning, your dog will learn to make better choices and respond to cues in a variety of real-world scenarios. This approach ensures that your dog not only follows commands but also becomes more confident and relaxed as they learn.
Why Board & Train is Perfect for You:
Expert Supervision: Your dog will receive one-on-one attention from professional trainers who specialize in behavioral development and positive reinforcement techniques. We tailor each training program to meet your dog’s unique needs, ensuring optimal progress.
Convenience While You’re Away: If you’re going out of town or have a busy schedule, our Board & Train program provides peace of mind, knowing your dog is in good hands. They will be in a structured, supportive environment that focuses on their training while you’re away, so you return to a well-mannered and balanced dog.
Progress You Can See: By the time your dog returns home, you’ll notice significant improvements in their behavior and obedience. We’ll provide you with detailed updates and ongoing support to ensure a smooth transition back home, including personalized guidance on maintaining the progress made during their stay.
If you’re ready to set your dog up for success and strengthen your bond, our Board & Train services are the ideal choice. Give your dog the tools they need to become their best self—while enjoying peace of mind knowing they’re in expert hands.
