Board & Train
At Grace Dog Training & Behavior, we offer a variety of services developed over decades of experience in the dog training business. One of these great services is our Grace Dog Training & Behavior Board & Train Program.
What is this?
This is a powerful program based in modern, praise-based, gentle methods of training for brand new puppy families or families who haven’t had a puppy in a long time. This amazing program is ideal for puppy owners who find themselves saying
- We finally got our perfect family dog from the breeder and want to ensure we’re setting them up for success
- We want our new puppy to be a well mannered family dog to enjoy for the rest of his or her life
- I don’t feel like I’m doing the right thing to set my puppy up for long term success
- I would love guidance about how to best train my dog for my house
- I need help being confident in what I’m doing with my puppy
- We don’t know what we don’t know about this puppy process
- You have the resources and desire to create the right foundation for your new puppy
What does the Grace Dog Training & Behavior Program accomplish?
This program gives your new puppy 2-weeks or 4-weeks of one-on-one, 24/7 training with Ana Melara, a Certified Professional Dog Trainer an APDT (Association of Professional Dog Trainers), IAABC (International Association of Animal Behavior Consultants) and TAGteach Advanced Certified with over 2 decades of dog training experience. This program allows you to set the most important foundational skills for your puppy to know, including:
- Socialization – with people and with puppies and adult dogs
