BOARD AND TRAINS
Our Board and Train Programs are so much more than just obedience. This is fully immersive training where your dog stays with us 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. We focus on removing bad habits, teaching confidence, fulfilling the physical and mental needs of your dog, and creating structure for the dog and owner.
It is our goal to help create a relationship between each dog and their owner where they can live in harmony together. After Each Board and Train we break down everything your dog learned during training and teach you how to continue training at home. Also we offer UNLIMITED lessons after the Board and Train to ensure everyone is on the same page with how to stay consistent at home.
The Southland K9 Training facility is highly secure, climate controlled, and monitored by video surveillance, fire detection, smoke, heat, and carbon detection.
