Board and train sounds like the ideal solution for a perfectly behaved dog, right?
After all, somebody else does all the hard work and you reap the rewards.
Well, in truth, it doesn’t work like that.
Here's why:
First, dogs do not generalize well. This means that when they learn a behavior, they learn it very specifically. If you teach your dog to lie down in the living room, they will think “down” means “lie down in the living room.” We need to teach them to expand that behavior to the rest of the world.
So, if your dog learns a new skill at the board and train facility, they won’t necessarily understand the same rules apply in your home. For example, if your dog loves to door dash and the board and train teaches your dog to wait at doorways, you can’t be sure your dog will wait at your front door. The environment has changed, so your dog’s behavior might too. You will need to continue the training to ensure it generalizes.
Second, along with helping your dog generalize, it’s important that you continue the training process to ensure the new behaviors stick. If your dog learned to sit at the board and train but you never reward sitting when they get home, it won’t be long before your dog stops sitting for you. If you want to maintain good behavior, you need to reinforce it with rewards such as treats, toys, games, praise, and so on. Training is a lifelong pursuit.
Third, you may need to change your lifestyle, particularly if your behavior or home environment was contributing to your dog’s issues in the first place. Antecedents matter. For example, if you leave food on the coffee table, you’re luring your dog into bad behavior. Although they might learn “leave it” at the board and train, continuing to offer such temptations is inviting your dog to regress to previous bad habits.
Finally, the key to good behavior is building a solid relationship with your dog. Your dog should want to listen to you and have a vested interest in doing what you ask. It doesn’t matter if they will listen to the dog trainer if they don’t care about listening to you. That means you need training too. The trainer will need to teach you all the verbal cues and hand signals they taught your dog as well as the techniques to continue working with your pet.
Then you need to put those skills into practice to show your dog that you are worth their attention. As an added bonus, the time you spend with your dog engaged in positive training will strengthen your bond and build your dog’s trust in you.
For guidance on which course or membership would be the best option for you and your dog, you can get a FREE phone/virtual consultation with our Canine Behavior Specialist!
For your Free initial consultation, please fill out the Dog Training Questionnaire to get started.
After you submit the questionnaire,
the specialist
will reach out as soon as she is available
during our regular business hours.
In-home consultations are available for $50/hour and limited to within a 25 mile drive of one of our main locations and not recommended for dogs with severe Fear/Anxiety/Stress (F.A.S.) response to strangers.
Your 1st Virtual or phone consultations is FREE and available to anybody, anywhere!
Virtual consultations are a better option for dogs with F.A.S. to strangers, as we do not recommend putting dogs with these struggles into situations they are not emotionally ready to handle unless 100% necessary.
