For safety and good measure, all dogs must be current on the following vaccines prior to entering our facility: Rabies, Bordetella, and Distemper/Parvo (usually labeled DAPP2).
We do not limit our training to any one training method or methodology. We utilize a wide variety of training techniques and tools to make sure we can help every dog that comes through our doors.
We make use of leashes, prong collars, slip leads, e-collars, toys, food, and much more. It depends on what will work best for you and your dog. To learn more be sure to check us out on social media @untameddogco and our podcast The Dog Trainer's Podcast.

Board and train offers a quick, efficient, and economical solution to problem behaviors.
While some people have a great deal of time to dedicate to their dog’s training, yielding fair results, most people do not. Our trainers, having a great deal of practice and experience, can train your dog efficiently in a short period of time.
A board and train program is critical for any dog suffering from fear, aggression, or anxiety as these types of issues require a skilled hand to achieve successful results. While some people do chose to fix these issues on their own, we do not recommend it. Poor training can create very dangerous situations.
Board and train offers more exposure to the world. Our seasoned trainers can introduce your dog (the right way) to more people, dogs, places, and things in one week than most people can in months, thereby creating a calmer, more well-rounded pup overall.
In our board and train program, we do the heavy lifting training your dog. This allows you to focus on developing your skills as an owner to ensure that you can maintain what has been taught.
Our training programs include lessons while your dog is here with us. This gives owners a chance to not only visit, but also to work with their dogs as they progress through their training programs. Thus, allowing us to present info and begin your practice in a gradual and steady pace that is optimal for learning!
