Good questions

Questions, answered.

What is a board and train stay?

Your dog lives with a trainer for a set period, often two to three weeks, and works through short daily sessions with plenty of rest. Near the end, the trainer teaches you the routine.

How much does a stay cost near Chattanooga?

As a general estimate, about $1,500 to $2,500 or more for two to three weeks. Trainers set their own prices, and extras can change the total.

What should I ask before booking?

Ask where the dog sleeps, how many dogs one trainer handles, what methods are used, how updates are shared and what happens if the dog is sick or stressed.

Is a stay safe for every dog?

No. Some nervous, older or medically fragile dogs do better with lessons at home. A responsible trainer will tell you honestly whether a stay fits.

Will my dog be trained when it comes back?

The dog will have practiced skills, but the household has to keep them going. Without steady practice at home the habits fade.

Can I choose a stay for a puppy?

Some trainers set minimum ages and health rules, and many young puppies do well with short lessons at home. Ask the trainer and your veterinarian.
