Discover Canine Dog Training offers an in-home board and train program where dogs stay with trainers for 3-6 weeks. The program focuses on obedience and manners around various distractions like children, cats, and other dogs. They aim to help puppies and adult dogs become well-behaved family members.

Commands taught include sit, come, heel, and place, along with social manners (biting, greeting people/dogs) and leash manners (pulling, jumping, jerking). They introduce the STAY command and work on crate-training, though it’s not guaranteed. Remote collars are incorporated as a stress-free communication tool. Puppies can start as early as 16-18 weeks without evaluations, while adult dogs may require a free evaluation. They do not accept dogs with aggressive tendencies or extreme fear.

Package 1 (Basic Obedience School) is 4 weeks and covers on-leash obedience, distraction training, and social/leash manners. Package 2 (Companion Canine) is 4-5 weeks and builds on Package 1 skills, introducing off-leash with a long line, house manners, greater focus, impulse control, and respecting thresholds. Package 3 (Out & About Canine) is 5-6 weeks and includes continued improvement, multiple field trips to public places, improved off-leash control, and additional training tools. Package 4 (Continuing Education) offers custom programs for graduates.
