How Concord Dog Owners Work With Us
Every program begins with a free in-person evaluation at our Salem, NH facility — about 40 minutes from Concord, and for Board & Train it’s just two trips.
Board & Train
Your dog lives and trains with us for 2–4 weeks. Drop off a work-in-progress, pick up a trained dog — then get hands-on owner lessons so it lasts.
Private Training Lessons
One-on-one obedience, leash manners, and behavior modification. Availability for your location is confirmed at your evaluation.
Puppy Training
Early structure, socialization, crate and potty training — build the right habits from day one.
A Dog You Can Take Anywhere in Concord
Concord life happens outdoors — trails, fields, river paths, town center sidewalks. The training has to hold up around real distractions, because that’s where you and your dog actually live.
✓ Trail-ready recall
Off-leash control that holds up around wildlife, bikes, and other dogs.
✓ Dog neutrality
Pass other dogs on a narrow path without lunging or barking matches.
✓ Town manners
Calm on busy sidewalks, patient outside the coffee shop, polite with strangers.
✓ Behavior problems solved
Reactivity, anxiety, guarding — serious issues are our specialty.
