Board and Train
Is your dog driving you nuts? Would you like to go away on vacation and come home to an excellently trained dog?
Our board-and-train program specializes in rehabilitation, and successfully deals with canine behaviour problems. By focusing primarily on problem behaviour and difficult dogs, we’ve been able to develop a unique approach that not only transforms dogs, but also transfers seamlessly to the owners.
We pride ourselves on our personalized approach with one-on-one attention paid to each individual dog and situation.
In the board and train, we address all forms of unwanted behavior, including, but not limited to:
- Dog-to-Dog Aggression
- Human Aggression
- Food and/or Resource Guarding
- Separation Anxiety
- Severe Fear Issues
- Reactivity On-Leash
This program also covers all of the basic commands – Sit/Stay, Down/Stay, Place, Heel, Come/Recall – as well as Crate Training, Potty training, Waiting for Food, and Waiting at Thresholds.
Duration of the program: 4 weeks
*If your dog has major behavioural issues, the board and train program may be longer.
At Obedience Unleashed Dog Training Inc., each day your dog receives:
- two walks/hikes,
- four personalized training sessions,
- supervised social time with other dogs,
- participation in our group obedience sessions.
Our Board and Train requires an Initial consultation prior to starting the program. After your dog completes the program, you receive 10 hours of follow-up handler training which is included, consisting of: 1 hour private go-home lesson upon pick up, 3 hours of group Off Leash Freedom class and 6 hours of Obedience & Socialization group walks held out and about in town. During these sessions we will transfer all of the information, techniques, and strategies to you to ensure continued success. We also offer email and phone support during and after the program is completed.
* Please contact us so we can help you assess your dog’s needs.
The board and train program is offered in Maple Ridge/Mission, Chilliwack/Abbotsford, Kamloops and Cochrane
Milo is a beloved member of our family, and we wouldn’t trust just anyone with his care. After trying other trainers and training programs in the area, we quickly realized that the personalized attention and empathy we were seeking for Milo were missing. We needed a trainer who truly understood our dog and our concerns, and that’s exactly what we found with Andy and Marie at Obedience Unleashed. From the moment we met them and toured their facility, we knew Milo would be in great hands. We chose the board and train program, which, although hard because we missed him, turned out to be the perfect decision for Milo. It was clear that this organization genuinely cares about the well-being of their dogs, and they took the time to consider both Milo’s needs and ours. We appreciated the regular video and photo updates that kept us in the loop. It was so reassuring to see Milo responding to commands, walking calmly in public stores, and making visible progress—things we never thought possible. We never felt out of touch or uncertain about his progress; we were always kept informed about his eating habits, bathroom routines, playtime, and more. They even celebrated Milo’s birthday, which really showed how much they care about the dogs they train. Milo’s trainer, Hannah, was exceptional. She provided detailed notes on his progress and gave us clear, practical suggestions for easing the transition back to our home routine. It was clear that Hannah’s professionalism was rooted in a deep respect and kindness for the animals she trains. Milo’s excitement when he sees her speaks volumes about the bond they share.
The board and train, along with the follow-up sessions and group walks, have made a tremendous difference in Milo’s behavior. He is now calmer around other dogs and walks very well on a leash. While his excitement around other dogs is still something we’re working on, the progress has been remarkable. My mom, who has arthritis, can now walk Milo without him pulling or lunging, which has been a huge relief. Milo has also learned to be comfortable being away from us, understanding that it’s okay to be apart and that we’ll always come back. The Obedience Unleashed team has given us the best foundation to work with Milo and has strengthened the bond between us. Training is always a work in progress, but with their guidance, we feel confident in continuing Milo’s journey. I truly appreciate the knowledge they’ve shared with our family, and I’ll turn to them whenever I need training support or a safe place for Milo during vacations. I can’t thank them enough for everything they’ve done for us. 🙂
