Real-World Training Environments

We don’t just train in one place. Your dog will learn in a variety of real-world environments like local parks, nature trails, dog-friendly shops, and busy urban areas. The Colony Board & Train Program ensures your dog listens and behaves in every situation—from quiet neighborhoods to crowded public spaces.

Private Lessons for You

Before your dog graduates from the Colony Board & Train Program, we’ll schedule private lessons with you at our training facility and in your home. This gives you the confidence to continue the training and make a smooth transition back into daily routines.

Ongoing Owner Education

The Colony Board & Train Program is as much about educating you as it is training your dog. We’ll teach you the tools and techniques you need to be a calm, confident leader. You'll leave the program empowered to reinforce your dog’s training and keep up their progress long-term.

The 3 D’s of Training

We focus on the core principles of Distance, Distraction, and Duration to make sure your dog follows commands no matter where you are or what’s going on. The Colony Board & Train Program is designed to create reliable, real-world behavior.

Program Duration and Flexibility

Our most popular Colony Board & Train Program lasts 2–3 weeks. It focuses on leash training and partial off-leash reliability while addressing common behaviors like:

  • Jumping

  • Nipping

  • Crate training

  • Potty training

  • Leash reactivity

  • Leash manners

  • Recall (come when called, even off-leash)

    For dogs with more advanced needs, we offer a 4–6 week Colony Board & Train Program. This is ideal for full off-leash obedience and more complex behavioral issues, like separation anxiety or fear-based reactivity.

    Each program is fully customized to meet your dog’s needs and your training goals.
