Stay + Play + Train | A PAWSITIVE Board & Train Experience!

Puppy Paws Academy Board & Train Experience

Do you need help with your dog but don’t have the time? Let us help you build a foundation of basic skills using positive reinforcement training techniques in our board & train program.

Our STAY + PLAY + TRAIN program allows dogs of any age to enjoy the freedom of fun and exercise while providing structure, boundaries and pet education through enrichment learning. Your dog will not only have fun, but will come home with an easy to follow roadmap so you can build a relationship based on mutual trust, love and respect.

Training Services Included

  • Daycare and boarding.
  • Daily training curriculum, report cards and notes.
  • Access to the enrichment center: doggie treadmill, agility course & stability exercises.
  • Proper socialization supervised by an academy trainer.
  • Private follow up session with a certified trainer at Puppy Paws or a video tutorial explaining everything your pup has learned.

Weekly Training Exercises

Practice makes perfect! We take your pup through a variety of exercises across our multi-week board & train program, teaching new cues while providing increased distraction challenges each time. Distractions may include toys, other dogs, people, sounds, moving objects, and new environments. In training your pup paired with increased distractions, we are setting them up for success in any circumstance or situation your dog may face!

2 weeks are required for this board & train program, with the option of additional weeks recommended. Additional tuition is required per each weekly add-on. Please inform us before the start of your dog’s training if you are interested in additional weeks, so we may tailor your pup’s training accordingly.
