You can schedule a training consultation for our Board & Train or Private In-Home Training Services by visiting our "Contact Us" page or calling us at 219-775-6861. We recommend booking in advance to secure your preferred dates. We're here to help you and your dog every step of the way.

To ensure the safety and well-being of all dogs, we require all training clients to be up-to-date on core vaccinations (Rabies, Distemper/Parvo, Bordetella) and to be flea and tick free. We'll discuss any specific behavioral needs or health concerns during our initial consultation to ensure our programs are a good fit for your dog. Your dog's health and happiness are our top priorities.

For Board & Train, please pack your dog's regular food (pre-portioned if possible), any necessary medications, and a favorite toy or blanket for comfort. For Private In-Home Training, we recommend a flat collar and a standard leash. We'll discuss any other preparations during your consultation. Our priority is ensuring your dog feels at home.

We have extensive experience caring for dogs with special needs, including those requiring medication. Please let us know about any health conditions, dietary restrictions, or behavioral quirks during your initial consultation. This helps us provide the best care for your dog during their training. We ensure a supportive and attentive environment for all our furry friends.

Yes! Our goal is long-term success.
