Devon’s K9 Training & Boarding

Devon’s K9 Training & Boarding offers In-Home Training consisting of 6 sessions where trainers work one-on-one with the dog and teach the owner how to apply commands. The Board & Train program involves the dog staying at their facility for 7 days for expedited training focused on basic obedience, with follow-up visits provided at no additional charge.

A specialized 2-week Board & Train program is available for aggressive dogs, which includes socialization with other dogs and people, alongside basic obedience training to address behavioral issues. Doggy Daycare provides half-day (4 hours) and full-day (8 hours) options, and all boarded dogs are included in daycare play for socialization.

The training methodology strictly adheres to positive reinforcement, avoiding shock collars and harsh punishment. Canine Good Citizen evaluations can be incorporated into training sessions.
