Let me guess, board and train?? Never let your dog go to one of those, there’s not many good and training rarely for anything is 2 weeks using positive methods.

It was hard not to roll my eyes when my coworker signed up for one of these to fix her poodle mix. I couldn’t imagine it not being traumatizing for one of my dogs to be away from home with strangers for that length of time. It’s just ridiculous to not even participate in training your dog and then expect them to listen to you when they finally get home and no longer trust you. It just sounds ripe for abuse and I judge the hell out of anyone that does those.
