The Jumpstart Program

Build healthy habits from day one

Looking to help your young dog build healthy habits and proactively avoid future behavioural issues? Then this is the program for you.

2-Week Program · $1,950

A solid foundation in 2 weeks

The Jumpstart Program is a 2-week board and train focused on providing your dog or puppy (4 months – 1 year old) a solid foundation of on-leash communication, manners and socialization, including:

Loose leash walking
On-leash heel
Sit
Down
Stay
Place command
Crate training
Healthy exposure and socialization

The program also focuses on curbing unwanted behaviours

  • Over-excitement
  • Counter surfing
  • Jumping
  • Leash pulling
  • Barking
  • Lunging and barking on-leash

For the duration of the program, your dog stays with us in our training facility — receiving one-on-one education daily, plus structured socialization with other dogs, humans, and environments for a well-rounded stay.

The Jumpstart Program is for young dogs up to a year old and is not suitable for dogs with behavioural concerns or off-leash goals. If you're dealing with behavioural concerns or want off-leash obedience, our Board and Train Program and Private Training Program can help you reach your goals.

Owner Education

Success continues at home

Your dog will receive an enormous amount of education, life experience and training during their stay — however it will be up to you, the owner, to ensure your dog's success after they return home.

Included Sessions

One (1) Go-Home session (minimum 2 hours at pick-up) where we break down all training, plus one (1) Follow-Up Session (1 hour) to ensure the transition home is successful and troubleshoot if needed. Training equipment used during your dog's stay is provided.

Lifetime Support + Benefits

Free consultation via phone, text or email after your dog's program, plus discounts on further training, day training services, and reduced-cost boarding following their program.

Boarding Requirements

Proof of current vaccinations is required before boarding your dog. Vaccinations must be current for your dog's age:

  • Rabies vaccine
  • Bordetella
  • Distemper (DHLPP)

The age range for our Jumpstart Program is 4 months to 1 year old.
