Evaluation
Dogs are known as "man’s best friend," and it all starts with those first days at home—long walks, car rides, and adventures together. You imagine building a strong bond filled with trust and fun. But that dream can quickly fade when your dog’s behavior isn’t what you expected. Whether you’ve brought home a new puppy or adopted an adult dog, behavioral challenges like aggression, disobedience, or fear can leave you feeling frustrated and unsure of what to do next. That’s where we come in—to help guide your dog’s behavior in a positive, lasting direction.
At Benchmark Dog Training, our board and train programs are designed to transform unwanted behaviors into positive habits. It all starts with an in-home consultation and a thorough evaluation of your dog, where we learn about your goals and tailor a training plan to fit your needs. Our three-week and four- to five-week programs focus on solid on-leash skills and build the foundation for off-leash reliability. Your dog will stay in a professional trainer’s home, receiving one-on-one attention, and we’ll guide you through the same methods to ensure a smooth transition back home.
. In just a few weeks, your pup can go from unruly and disobedient to focused, well-mannered, and a joy to be around. Say goodbye to unwanted behaviors and hello to respectful, loving companionship. At Benchmark Dog Training, our goal is to make board and train a positive experience for both dogs and their owners, setting the stage for a lifetime of great memories together.
