Puppy Board and Train Programs
Our Puppy Board & Train programs are designed to give young dogs a strong start through structured training, routines, and professional guidance — without the commitment of long-term puppy raising. These programs are ideal for families who are ready to take on daily care but want expert support during the critical early stages.
Focused training. Thoughtful structure. A confident start.
What Puppy Board and Train Is — and Isn’t
Puppy Board & Train provides a short, concentrated training experience focused on foundations. Puppies stay with our trainers for a defined period of time, where structure, routines, and age-appropriate obedience are introduced consistently and thoughtfully. Door-to-door transportation is included to make the process simple and seamless for families.
This option is designed for families who want a strong jump-start — not ongoing month-to-month support. Puppies return home ready for owners to continue building on what’s been taught, with guidance from our team.
What your puppy will learn
During Puppy Board & Train, puppies are introduced to age-appropriate skills that support calm behavior, structure, and confidence at home.
- Crate training foundations and routine-building
- Potty training guidance and consistency
- Calm manners and impulse control
- Confidence around new environments and experiences
- Introduction to foundational obedience concepts
- Healthy daily rhythms that support long-term training success
Training always progresses at the puppy’s developmental pace.
A Home-Based Training Environment
All Puppy Board & Train programs take place in a professional trainer’s home — not a kennel facility. This allows puppies to learn in a real-life environment with consistent routines, household exposure, and individualized care.
Living in a home setting helps puppies develop calm manners, adaptability, and confidence that translate naturally back into family life.
Our Puppy Board and Train Options
We offer two Puppy Board & Train pathways, depending on your goals and how much training support you want built in.
Puppy over or nearing 5 months?
Start here: Obedience Board & Train →

How this differs from puppy raise & train
If you’re seeking a longer-term, month-to-month solution where your puppy’s daily care, routines, and early development are professionally managed — including scheduled puppy visits for bonding — our Puppy Raise & Train program may be a better fit.

Puppy Board & Train FAQs
What age is Puppy Board & Train best for?
Puppy Board & Train is best suited for puppies who are developmentally ready to begin structured learning. Program placement is discussed during consultation to ensure the best fit.
Will my puppy Forget me?
No. Puppies form healthy, lasting attachments when transitions are handled thoughtfully. While your puppy is learning structure and routines with us, their bond with you remains intact — and is supported through proper transition guidance and owner involvement when they return home.
Can Puppy Pre-K9 lead into other programs?
Absolutely. Puppy Pre-K9 can stand alone or serve as a foundation for future training, including Puppy Academy or Obedience Board & Train.
