About Our Dog Training Programs

At Canine Connection, we have spent the past decade learning and mastering the craft of training your dogs. We've had some bumps in the road and we've made some mistakes but we have always learned from them, and made adjustments to better ourselves as dog trainers and better our dog training programs, and our all new dog training model is our best yet.

Introducing the Reverse Board and Train system.

This program is truly the best of every way to get professional dog training for you and your dog.

Over the past 4 years we have been offering regular board and train programs. Although they have been great for most dogs, there were always a few that didn't do well in our environment, dogs that took half the program just to get used to the environment and the staff, or owners were uneasy about leaving their dog for an extended period of time, or the dog would completely change their behavior with us and not exhibit the behaviors the owners needed us to work on. Afterall, we can only work on what we see.

This is where the idea for the reverse board and train came from.

With the dog spending the whole time at home with the trainer coming to the house every day, there is no decompression time for the dog. There is no stress on the owner, or the dog, and the trainer can see the true behaviors of the dog and work on them where it matters the most, in your home.

Each week the trainer has the opportunity to sit down with the family of the dog and show them what they have worked on that week and show them how to work with their dog over the weekend. This gives the owner and their dog enough time to practice the skills they have learned and keep the training ongoing. It is a true 50/50 split of the dog working with a professional dog trainer and working with their owner.

Each week that your dog is going through the reverse board and train program we invite you to come to our Creating a Canine Connection group class. Here you will have the opportunity to work your dog in a controlled and structured environment with other dogs. And, once your dog has completed training with us, you are invited to keep coming to group classes every week free of charge for the life of your dog. These classes include Continuing a Canine Connection and our Loose Leash Walking class.
