Doggy Boarding School is for dogs of all ages and                        
                                                         breeds.  During boarding school, dogs live with                             
                                                         Florence, our owner, and are treated like members of the      
                                                         family.  Dogs typically work on issues like housebreaking,        
                                                         jumping up on people, nuisance barking, destructive                 
                                                         chewing, pulling on leash, running off/not coming when         
                                                         called, separation anxiety, and overall                                                  
                                                         non-responsiveness.  Boarding School has a "whole dog"       
                                                         focus so training is comprehensive addressing all parts            
                                                         of the dog's behavior and temperament.  Dogs have                  
                                                         several formal training sessions each day learning basic           
                                                         through advanced skills that are customized to fit                       
                                                         your needs.  The main focus of training is to teach your             
                                                         dog how to be obedient, well-mannered, and have                     
                                                         self-control.   

All training is done using positive reinforcement techniques including learning
through games and play in order to motivate your dog to want to listen rather than
being physically forced to do so.  No punishment or harsh methods, choke, prong, or
shock collars are ever used.

Even though your dog will be away at boarding school, owners are still very involved
in the training process.  Boarding school works best when paired with Private
Training so owners can learn to maintain all of the behaviors the dog has learned.

Boarding School is great for busy people who do not have the significant amount of
time required to properly train their dog.  It's also good for those who do not want to
get up several times during the night to housebreak a puppy!  Boarding School also
works well for families who want their dog to learn complicated tricks like fetching a
beer from the fridge, bringing you the remote control, or any other creative
behaviors.

Boarding School is available for dogs who are local in Seattle as well as those in other
areas/states.  Pick up and drop off arrangements can be made including air travel
with your dog.
