Board & Train
Let our team of certified trainers spend some one on one quality training time with your Pooch! The dogs get several training sessions throughout the day with breaks for play in between (for dogs that are social).
Our staff of dog trainers will lay the foundations for you to communicate in a positive and clear way with your pup. Dogs are highly attuned to body language; it's their primary form of communication! Using force-free training, we will help you and your dog form a closer bond.
Before their stay at Pleasant Pooch, all dogs 16 weeks of age and older must have current Bordetella, Distemper, Canine Influenza and Rabies vaccines. If you have a puppy between 15-20 weeks old, we require them to be current on Bordetella and at least 3 rounds of shots rounds. We require all dogs staying with us to receive a Bordetella vaccine every 6 months.

Board & Train Packages:
For all of our board & train packages owner will be expected to take part in learning how to communicate behaviors with their dog. You will also be expected to take part in learning how to communicate positively with your dog and will receive training on how to maintain desired behaviors with dog at home. Training is a two-way street!
After each board & train there is a lesson at pickup which is typically about 45 minutes long and will go over what the dog has learned and how to implement these things into your daily lives.
