SERVING ALL OF CENTRAL ILLINOIS
Quick Answer
Board and train is an immersive dog training program where your dog lives with professional trainers for two to four weeks, learning reliable obedience and manners, after which the owner is coached so the results last at home. At Ridgeside K9 Central Illinois it includes lifetime support.
Most of us lead busy lives. We work long hours, juggle commitments, and rarely have the extra time it takes to train a dog from the ground up. Our Board and Train program in Central Illinois solves that. Your dog lives and learns with our trainers in a structured, immersive environment where every interaction is a training opportunity.
During the stay we teach a clear communication system and proof reliable obedience around real world distractions, so your dog listens whether you are at a busy park in Peoria or visiting family in Bloomington. At graduation we spend about three hours coaching you, the owner, so the results carry over the moment your dog comes home.
