Board & Train

Common Questions

Things owners ask.

Is my dog going to be okay away from home for that long?
Most dogs adjust within the first 24–48 hours. Our staff is trained to ease the transition, and the structured routine actually helps many dogs feel calmer than at home. We send daily updates so you can see exactly how they're settling in.
Can I visit my dog during the program?
We discourage mid-program visits — they tend to set training back by re-triggering attachment behaviors. We do send daily updates with photos, and we're happy to schedule check-in calls if you have specific concerns.
What happens if my dog doesn't make the progress we discussed?
Honest answer: every dog is different. We set realistic expectations during your initial consultation. If we hit barriers we didn't anticipate, we'll talk to you and adjust the program — not push past your dog's pace.
How does the handler transition work?
Before pickup day, you'll come in for a session with the trainer who worked with your dog. They'll show you the commands, demonstrate the techniques, and walk you through how to maintain consistency at home. We send you home with detailed notes.
