BOARD & TRAIN

Give your dog the opportunity to train for 2 or 4 weeks alongside the owner of LK9 John, accelerating their learning of new behaviors while addressing and correcting undesired habits

PRIVATE LESSONS

Private lessons provide a fantastic opportunity to continue your dog’s training with focused, one-on-one attention. Working directly with our experienced trainers allows you to address specific behavior issues, improve obedience, and receive personalized guidance tailored to your dog’s needs. These sessions also offer you the chance to build greater confidence in your training abilities and strengthen your relationship with your dog through consistent, hands-on support.

We include private lessons as part of all our Board & Train programs, but they’re also available as standalone sessions to work on specific challenges or enhance overall obedience. Whether you're looking for help with problem behaviors or aiming for advanced training, private lessons offer the flexibility and expertise to take your dog’s training to the next level.

PUPPY TRAINING

Training your puppy early on offers numerous benefits and is a key step in their overall development. One of the most important aspects of this stage is environmental exposure and socialization. Our specialized program allows us to start training your puppy even before they’re fully vaccinated, keeping them safe from potential diseases while still making progress!

During this crucial phase, puppies often exhibit behaviors like nipping, chewing on furniture, and having accidents around the house. Our program focuses on curbing these behaviors while also laying a strong foundation for future training.

Let us help guide your puppy through these early stages, setting them up for success and creating a well-behaved, confident companion!
