Ridgeside K9’s board and train programs are one of the most successful dog training programs in the United States! Anywhere from basic puppy to advanced off leash obedience, give your dog the opportunity to reach their full potential!

Here at Ridgeside K9 Tidewater, dogs are treated like family. Our focus is not only on the dog, but also you the owners! Even though ouer trainers are the ones getting in the repetitions needed to create a solid foundation, the real training begins at home where our professional trainers take the time to go over every detail from the previous weeks training so that you are 100% confidant in continuing training at home.

Your dog will live with, train with, and be loved and respected by our trainers as one of their own. 

Board and Train FAQ

Why is the board and train our most popular program we offer with the greatest success rate?

During our board and train program, we take the dogs out on field trips working them in real-life environments. You will receive multiple updates which include photos and videos for you to follow along with your dog’s progress.

• E-Collar – Each adult training package includes an e-collar used as a training tool to hold your dog accountable after the training expectations have been set.

• Peace of Mind- Your assigned trainer will send you daily training reports with photo updates. This is the best way for you to see your dogs progress, while they’re having fun!
• Turnover – At the end of your dog’s training, each trainer will take the time, however long (usually 2-3 hours), to explain everything your dog has spent the past weeks learning and how to translate these new behaviors into their life at home; everything from the basics of training to troubleshooting the e-collar. They will not leave until you are 100% confident and comfortable handling your dog.
