my board and train program For Puppies and Dogs
Bingo Dog Training Boarding School for Puppies & Dogs
My Boarding School is located in the beautiful rolling hills of the Royal Oaks community in Watsonville, California. A short drive from Hwy 101 and Hwy 1, my Boarding School is an easy drive from surrounding areas.
Why Choose Boarding School
In 2008, I opened The Bingo Dog Training Boarding School. Boarding School has provided me the opportunity to have a truly intimate connection with a large variety of dogs. Dogs of all different sizes with lots of different learning styles, quirks and behavior challenges. This experience brought my knowledge and skills to a much higher level. Over the years, my training has become more insightful, adaptive, and more like an art form. I like thinking out of the box, and since no two dogs are the same – I’ve learned how to best modify things to help specific individuals.
Board and Train is typically accomplished during a 2-week stay at my home and is specifically tailored to meet your needs. Longer stays can also be accommodated. Your written input on my contract coupled with a conversation on the phone will help me understand your needs and allow me to make recommendations.
During this immersion training your dog will be treated as one of my family members. Similar to living with a Spanish speaking family vs. taking Spanish lessons once a week, immersion speeds learning and retention because situations are real and repeated frequently. It allows me to work with your dog in ‘real life’ situations as opportunities arise naturally. I will also work with your dog in structured sessions both on and off my property, on-leash and off-leash. Training in a variety of environments and situations expedites fluency and results.
Over the years, I have had great success in helping people with their dog’s education. Clients often watch in awe as their dogs demonstrate a clear understanding of what is being asked of them after a Boarding School stay.
I’ll Be Training You Too
At the end of your dog’s visit, we will spend approximately 2 hours together for knowledge transfer and coaching. I will explain my findings regarding your dog’s temperament, motivators and learning style as I demonstrate how to best communicate with your dog and coach you on how to do the same. You will be welcome to video our session together and will be sent home with detailed written materials to reference.
Continuing Education
It will be important for everyone in the household of reasonable age to practice once you get home and gradually integrate the skills into daily life. Just 20-minutes/day can make a world of difference!
I am available for in-home, one-on-one coaching sessions at your home or mine, conference calls and zoom meetings should you need additional help after you get home.
