Why Choose a dog Board and Train?

A board and train program provides your dog with focused, consistent training from professionals, making it effective for tackling specific behavior issues or advanced obedience. It's a time-efficient option for busy owners, offering a structured environment that helps reset problematic behaviors. Trainers tailor the program to your dog's needs, ensuring consistent progress, and the change of setting can minimize distractions while also challenging with controlled distractions. Additionally, your dog can benefit from supervised socialization with other dogs, improving overall behavior and confidence.

Dog Handling Methods
We believe there are many effective ways to train a dog, but we've found the best long-term results come from balancing positive reinforcement to increase desired behaviours with appropriate corrections to reduce unwanted behaviours. We tailor our program and methods to the dog's individual needs and temperament, aiming to build a well-behaved and confident dog. Your dog's safety and health, including their emotional well-being, is our top priority at all times.

  • “My dogs LOVE Alder Creek, they are usually very shy and nervous around new people but they immediately warmed up to the team and always come home tired and happy. They are not even crate trained but they love going there and playing with the other dogs and getting enrichment from the team. I could not recommend it more!”

  • “Our almost 2 yr. old Aussie Shepherd has been going to Alder Creek on and off for the past year. He has done doggie day care, overnight stays as well as some of the training sessions and we can say enough great things about our experience. The staff are all so kind and caring, we feel at ease as we know our boy is well cared for and loved. From time they take to make sure he is in the right group of dogs that are best suited for him to play with to making sure he specific needs are taken care of. We highly recommend Alder Creek!!”
