Winter Board & Train Deal ❄️ 4 weeks for the price of 3!

Winter is one of the best times to invest in training — fewer distractions, quieter schedules, and more opportunity to truly build strong, reliable skills before the busy spring and summer months.

For a limited time, dogs enrolled in our Hybrid Board & Train program for January or February will receive a complimentary 4th week of training ($1,000 value)! That extra week allows for:
• More repetitions
• Stronger behavior reliability
• Better proofing and confidence
• A smoother transition back home

Our Hybrid Board & Train combines intensive weekday training with weekend practice at home, plus online coursework and hands-on go-home and follow-up lessons — so owners don’t just get a trained dog, they gain the skills to maintain results long-term.

🗓 Valid for January & February start dates
📍 Boarding portion must begin by 2/16/25
⏳ Limited availability

After sharing tips for preparing your dog for the holidays, I was inspired to put something together for Thanksgiving morning! For those of you looking for a great way to kick off the holiday with friends, meet me, Rocky, and Sprite for our first Thanksgiving Turkey Trot Training Walk at Buckland park 🦃🐾

Before the family gatherings and food comas kick in, let’s get outside, practice some skills, and enjoy a little adventure as a group. This walk is all about:
🍗 getting your dog’s energy out
🍗 strengthening leash walking + basic obedience skills
🍗 having fun with real-world distractions
🍗 trying out some training games
🍗 and maybe even some post-class dog-dog social time for the right dogs!

Perfect obedience is not required, but basic leash skills and the ability to hold simple positions (sit and down) is recommended for the optimal experience. The class is reactive- and nervous-dog friendly, and is meant to be a relaxed, judgement-free chance to get out, explore, and build confidence before a busy holiday.

If you’re unsure whether your dog is a good fit, feel free to email us at [email protected] - we’re happy to provide you with our recommendation!

How to Join:
Head to summitk9.propetware.com, log in, and register! New clients are welcome - you’ll just need to complete your account and upload vaccinations before signing up.

We hope you can join us! Let’s start the holiday with fresh air, good company, and some fun training together 🥾

PSA: Get your dog's exercise and enrichment in NOW for a smooth and low stress holiday!

The holidays can be tough on dogs. Routines are disrupted, household members are stressed, and new people and dogs may be visiting. These factors can be tough on any dog, but they will be especially tough on dogs that haven't gotten the chance to expend excess energy, fulfill their natural drives, and properly destress.

Expecting great behavior from a dog whose base needs have not been met isn't fair. Make sure your dog is prepared for the holiday this year - get out there and have some fun with them!

The best outlets for most dogs:
⭐ Off- leash (or longline) decompression hikes - These are king. Nothing beats a good old fashioned romp in the woods, where your dog can run freely, sniff, p*e on things, and just be a dog!
Note: Neighborhood walks are great, but they will not pack as good a punch as an off site adventure. If you can, hit the trail!

⭐ Their favorite high intensity game - tug, fetch, personal play, play with other dogs are all excellent choices. For many dogs, frustration and pent up energy is best spent through games that include some fun push-pull dynamics. For these dogs, straight exercise like running, treadmill work, and short leash neighborhood walks is not enough!

⭐ Running or Canicross - for dogs that love to run, this style of exercise can help lower baseline stress and burn off excess energy. Many dogs need a little mental enrichment to supplement their runs for maximum benefits, but running with your dog is a great starting point!

⭐ Trick training - don't slack on mental enrichment! This can be a great option for busy owners, since it is easily layered in at home. Test your dog's problem solving skills (and your own!) by teaching fun, low expectation tricks! This can often be as tiring as physical exercise, and is a fantastic low time commitment way to help your dog take the edge off. Plus, your overall training will improve AND you'll get a fun new party trick!

Running low on time or need some fun ideas? We're here to help!
