Board & Train and Day Training
Both board & train and day training are expedited processes. Our professional trainers provide dense learning that leads to skill mastery in a shorter time span. Transfer lessons happen at the end of skill acquisition so that you only have to learn once. Our facility is located in DeForest, WI.
Board & train or day training may be a good fit for you if:
-
Committing to extensive daily training is not feasible
-
Your dog would benefit from additional support from professional trainers at this point in their training
-
You would prefer a professionally trained dog
Whether your goal is a dog who has public access or a dog whose tasks are at-home only, board & train or day training may be a great fit for your team.
Please read through the program details below and review our Frequently Asked Questions. We look forward to supporting you on your service dog training journey!

3 training sessions per day

2 nature walks in the private dog park

Suite style boarding
Requirements:

Day Training
Day training is an option available to those within easy driving distance of our DeForest, WI facility.
Like our board & train program, day training provides a speed boost to your dog's progress. Day training client dogs receive the same work and training as dogs who board, but you drop them off in the morning and pick them up in the afternoon. Board & train is like going to college and living in the dorms; day training is going to college and living at home.
This program is a partnership between Medi-Dogs and Green Acres Pet Resort, giving your dog access to their wonderful facility and care while receiving top notch training from our certified trainers.
