Training doesn't end after graduation

Regular overnight boarding is available exclusively to dogs who have previously completed a Stay Good Board & Train or Stay Good Day Training program. Because these dogs have already spent significant time with us, we are familiar with their behavior, routines, handling, and individual needs before they return to stay with us. 

We are a training facility first, not a traditional boarding facility, and our boarding space is intentionally very limited, with a maximum of two regular boarding dogs at a time. This allows us to give the dogs in our care the attention, structure, exercise, and supervision they deserve while also protecting the time we dedicate to our training programs.

Boarding requires advance reservation and is subject to availability. If we have not seen your dog in more than six months, a private training session will be required before another boarding stay can be approved. All dogs must also meet our current vaccination, fecal testing, parasite prevention, and health requirements.

Our boarding rates are also different from a traditional boarding facility because you are not simply paying for someone to house your dog. Your dog is staying with a small, family-operated training facility, where their training and structure are maintained throughout their stay. We are open and working year-round, with the exception of Christmas Eve and Day, so our existing clients can rely on us for training throughout the year.

Space is limited, and Board & Train dogs are always prioritized. Boarding availability is never guaranteed and is dependent on our training schedule and available space. For pricing, please email staygoodtraining@gmail.com

Our daycare is a little different from traditional dog daycare. We are a training facility first, so our priority is providing structured care that supports your dog's training, communication, and overall development.

Daycare is available to established, active Stay Good clients and is limited to full-day care Monday–Friday. Because space is limited and our training programs take priority, daycare availability depends on our schedule and the needs of the dogs currently in training.

While your dog is with us, we maintain the structure and expectations they have learned through their Stay Good program. Depending on the dog, the day may include structured play and enrichment, obedience work, walks, socialization, or simply practicing calm behavior around other dogs and distractions. For pricing, please email staygoodtraining@gmail.com

As your dog's life changes, new questions, environments, or challenges may arise.  You may be preparing for a new baby, moving to a new home, introducing another pet, or just looking to fine-tune a few things. These additional, single private sessions are available whenever you need. Pricing for existing clients who have already completed at least 5 private lessons is $125 per session.

A tired dog isn't always a fulfilled dog. Sometimes the most rewarding work happens with their nose. Trailing gives dogs the opportunity to tap into one of their strongest natural instincts by following a human scent trail from start to finish. Rather than focusing on obedience, trailing encourages dogs to problem-solve, build confidence, and work independently while remaining connected to their handler.

Each session lasts approximately 60–90 minutes and is tailored to the individual dog and their experience level. Whether your dog is brand new to scent work or has previous trailing experience, every trail is designed to be engaging, mentally stimulating, and, most importantly, fun. For many dogs, trailing provides an incredible outlet for mental enrichment while strengthening the bond between dog and handler through purposeful teamwork.
