Puppy Board & Train
Puppies are very cute but they have important and very specific needs. Getting your puppy socialized and used to practicing good manners is key for their growth and long-term happiness. Not to mention it will help you navigate those early months when puppies take over our whole lives! To help new puppy owners we are announcing a new exclusive Board & Train service just for Puppies!
Our puppy board & train service will be 10 days in length. This is a shorter duration than adult dog board & train options given the limited attention span and retention of puppies. This intensive program will focus on developing a strong foundation for basic obedience skills and importantly, it will help socialize puppies at an early age. This training will give them the critical skills to build confidence and will reduce the chance of your puppy becoming a reactive adult dog due to all the distractions in Chicago. K9U Chicago trainers have extensive experience working with puppies and they know the most positive and impactful ways to help your puppy learn quickly in a safe environment.
Get your puppy started on the right track and register for our Puppy Board & Train service today!
