Question on Google
Do you offer boarding?

We sure do! Our enrichment focused boarding services are perfect for dogs of all shapes, sizes, ages, and temperaments. Each day our guests are offered adventures (ex. nature walks, river swims), activities (agility/obstacle course work, time in the scent room), and group play or 1-1 play. We believe that fulfilled dogs are happy dogs and happy dogs are our specialty. Most of our services are all inclusive, but we also offer some basic upgrades to boarding such as basic training, intentional socialization, specialty treats or activities upon request.

Question on Google
How much does training cost?

Because no two dogs (or their humans) are the same we focus on the nuances of training while formulating customized plans to meet the needs and expectations of both dogs and handlers. The value of great training is beyond customized training plans which has become the industry standard "selling point". Our programs offer a combination of private training sessions, group classes, group outings, boarding with enrichment and upgraded training, live-in training (Board & Train) as well as an online classroom and an interactive social community full of training and behavior resources. If you'd like more information about our training programs, book a free phone consultation at www.longdoginc.as.me/PHONE. Here we'll dive into your challenges, your goals, and together we'll come up with a realistic plan to ensure your success.

The trainer tailors the training sessions according to whatever your dog needs or struggles with. We've made a lot of progress with our reactive dog Yuji. Highly recommend!

Heather is absolutely amazing! She’s been giving us private dog training lessons for the past year, and we’ve seen such an incredible improvement with our crazy Cooper. Both of our dogs adore her, and it’s so clear how much love and care she has for them. Her knowledge of dog training is outstanding, and she offers such a wide variety of helpful services. We are so grateful for everything she’s done and look forward to continuing to work with her—and hopefully boarding soon!

Heather has already shown me enough new techniques in my first 2 sessions to drastically reduce the issues I was experiencing with my dog. She is awesome and I would def recommend. You do have to do your "homework" though- meaning you have to practice the stuff she teaches with your fur baby every day if u want it to work. Your puppy will be happier and you will too.
