Board & Train Programs

The standard 2 Week Board & Train provides two weeks of immersive training while the dog boards with a professional trainer. It includes six guaranteed commands: Sit, Place, Heel, Down, one advanced command, and Off, along with full off-leash recall and work around multiple distractions in multiple environments.

The program also includes greeting, door, and meal manners, an e-collar, and a two-hour one-on-one owner session after completion. It is listed with “100% Obedience w/ Lifetime Refreshers.”

Complete correction of major dog or human aggression cannot be guaranteed through either Board & Train program.

Puppy Training

Puppy Training Consultations are available for puppies five months or younger. The consultation provides guidance on basic obedience foundations, house training, and questions about the puppy’s training.

The 2 Week Puppy Board & Train is available for puppies at least 12 weeks old. Its curriculum includes Sit, Place, Down, loose-leash walking, on-leash recall, and greeting, door, and meal manners. It also establishes crate- and potty-training routines through positive reinforcement.

Behavior Modification and Aggression Training

Aggressive Dog Training is an eight-week private-lesson program for dogs with aggression or reactivity around other dogs. It includes the Basic Obedience curriculum and additional lessons working around other dogs in different scenarios. The stated goal is to give owners better control, handling skills, training tools, and desensitization guidance.

Complete correction of major dog or human aggression cannot be guaranteed. Owners should disclose the dog’s complete behavior and bite history so the team can discuss program suitability and realistic goals.

Therapy Dog Preparation

Therapy Dog Preparation includes eight weekly lessons designed to help dogs and handlers prepare for therapy dog testing and certification. Training focuses on obedience, manners, handler communication, and reliability around distractions.

Upon successful completion, the Phoenix team states that it can evaluate and certify the owner and dog through Therapy Pets Unlimited. Participation does not guarantee certification; the dog-and-handler team must satisfy the applicable evaluation requirements.

Basic Marker Mastery™

Basic Marker Mastery™ includes four one-hour sessions across four weeks. It uses reward-based methods, markers, and clicker training to introduce Come, Sit, Place, and loose-leash walking.

A 15-foot leash, clicker, and OLK9 slip lead are included. The program does not use e-collars or prong collars.
