Your dog lives with our family during training — building real-world obedience and lifelong manners in a loving environment.
The Board & Train program is an immersive dog training experience where your pup lives with professional trainers in a real home—not a kennel. With consistent, hands-on practice each day, your dog develops obedience, manners, and confidence in a natural, stress-free environment.
Dogs live and train inside a trainer’s home, gaining real-world manners in a family environment—not left waiting in kennels between sessions.
From puppies to seniors, small to large, our trainers customize each program to fit your dog’s unique needs and personality.
Founded by police K9 handlers, Kodiak K9 only works with trainers who meet the highest standards of experience, professionalism, and care.
At the end of each program, your trainer reviews everything your dog has learned and shows you how to apply it at home.
We don’t just teach commands. We create confident, well-mannered dogs by training them inside real homes, as part of everyday family life.
Our two- to three-week board-and-train programs provide the structure, consistency, and positive guidance dogs need to quickly build skills, trust, and confidence.
Your dog lives and learns in a trainer’s home, gaining real-world manners in a family environment where couch naps are encouraged!
Stay connected with daily updates and photos throughout your pup’s training, and enjoy a personalized take-home lesson with continued trainer support when it’s time to come home.
