Willow Run Boarding Kennels now provides In-Kennel Training for your canine companion.
In-House Training Services: Our Board and Train Dog "Training School" is here at Willow Run Boarding Kennels. The "Board and Train Your Dog" service is for spoiled/ unsocilaized or unruly type of dogs (Dogs that live mainly inside and have been treated more like a child than a dog). It is also for dogs that might have anxiety or would have undue stress in a kennel environment if they needed to be boarded or groomed. Our "Training School" program is suggested for dogs that might have had a hard time house breaking and you would want to maintain that by using the crate training techniques used in our dog training program. The training is a more realistic environment where the dog eventually comes into our home and learns to be calm and obedient. Dogs will have "doggie daycare" during the day for period of times when they are not in training to socialize and play with our own friendly dogs. They go on several nature walks a day and spend time inside with us so they can learn house manners such as not to take food off the counters. They become a part of our pack and learn to act accordingly. A description of both services and prices are below: Board and Train Dog Training School: $495 for a 2 week minimum for basic dog on leash obedience training. We live on the property of Willow Run Boarding Kennel in Kernersville, NC. Your dog will be kept under the our wing, and become a part of our existing family. Since the dog is in this environment, we can work on basic in-house manners such as counter surfing, obedience training, behavior modification and a foundation for house breaking. A plus for the dogs are daily walks, playtime in our secured fenced yard, and specialized attention in the our home, office and kennels. It will be a home away from home for your dog. As a part of the behavior training, they will also get to socialize with other dogs. The dog training will include the minimum of 4 training sessions each day, including weekends, long walks and plenty of structured exercise to work on no pull/heel and other general behavior training in and around our facilities for further obedience proofing. There is a 2-week minimum on the Board and Train basic program.
All training is not guaranteed and progress depends on the temperament of the dog. Some dogs may learn slower than others and we will work at their speed without any unnecessary pressure put on the dog. Training will also have to be maintained consistently at home for your dog to retain everything learned in Board and Train training program. You will have to generalize the behaviors to other environments once the dog is home. A complimentary consultation to evaluate your dog and your requirements is included in the cost of the training program. Additionally when you come to pick-up your dog from our dog training school a Go Home" lesson is included in the price of service. The lesson will go over what commands the dogs have learned and how to reinforce the behavior once your dog is back in their environment. After the dog goes home and you have had a week to work on transferring the leadership to you and generalize the dog to other environments, we will give you a complimentary refresher lesson to go over any dog behavior training issues.
