Fairy Dawgmother Board and Train is a home-based dog training service run by Sarah, a mother of two and substitute elementary teacher with lifelong experience owning dogs of all sizes. She offers board and train programs where puppies stay in her home to receive real-life training and socialization. Training includes basic obedience commands like sit, down, come, potty training, kennel conditioning, and leash walking. The 2-week and 4-week programs are designed to prepare puppies for smooth transitions into their new homes, with the 4-week option adding hand signals, whistle recall, and party tricks like heel and roll over. All training occurs in a home environment, not a commercial facility, and includes up-to-date vaccinations.

The program focuses exclusively on puppies and emphasizes positive reinforcement through real-world exposure, helping dogs learn manners and commands in everyday settings. No other services like grooming, walking, or boarding are mentioned beyond the board and train program.

Sarah’s background in teaching children translates to a patient, consistent approach with dogs, and her training is tailored to build confidence and responsiveness in young dogs before they return home.
