Next-Door K9 Solutions offers various board and train programs designed to address different training needs. The Aggression Rehab program is typically 4-6 weeks, focusing on severe behaviors like barking, growling, snapping, lunging, biting, and attacking, aiming to help dogs control impulses and for owners to manage behavior. The On and Off Leash program is 3 weeks, teaching reliable off-leash skills, basic manners, and behavior modification in various environments. The On Leash program is 2 weeks, focusing on obedience on leash, minor behavior modification, and public training.
Puppy training programs are available for 2 or 3 weeks, teaching basic obedience (come, sit, down, place, leash walking), potty training, socialization, and proper etiquette, with the 3-week program including public outings. A Mature Dog Foundation Training is a 1-week program to build basic communication and set up for follow-on training. Doggy Daycare Training mimics the board and train without overnight stays, where dogs learn skills during the workday. All programs include pick-up, drop-off, in-home lessons, and lifetime trainer support (except the 2-week puppy program). Training involves daily sessions, potty breaks, exercise, play, and socialization, with continuous communication and updates provided to owners.
