What Is a Dog Boot Camp?

"Boot camp," "board & train," and "immersion training" all describe the same thing: your dog stays with a trainer for a set period — typically two weeks — and works on obedience and behavior every day, in many environments, with professional consistency you simply cannot replicate with one weekly lesson. The result is a dog that has practiced the right behavior hundreds of times before they ever come home.

The magic is not just the training — it is the structured transfer at the end, where we teach you to handle the trained dog so the results last. Ready to book? Our full program and pricing live on the board & train and pricing pages.

What to Expect

Days 1–3: Foundation

Your dog settles in, learns the marker system, and begins core commands with positive reinforcement.

Days 4–9: Building

Commands become reliable, distance and duration grow, and we add real-world distractions.

Days 10–14: Proofing

Off-leash work in busy environments, then your hands-on transfer session.

Aggression & Anxiety Boot Camp

Dogs with serious behavior issues need more than obedience. Our specialized aggression and anxiety board-and-train layers in behavior modification, careful threshold work, and a lifetime support guarantee. If your dog lunges, bites, guards, or panics, start with our aggressive dog training and reactive dog training programs.

Prefer to stay hands-on? If you would rather learn alongside your dog, private and in-home lessons reach the same destination at a weekly pace.

Dog Boot Camp — Frequently Asked Questions

How much does dog boot camp cost in Chattanooga?

A 2-week obedience board & train is $2,900 and the aggression/anxiety program is $3,500, both including the e-collar and lifetime support. See full pricing or call (423) 430-6559.

Is a dog boot camp the same as board and train?

Yes — they are two names for the same immersive program where your dog trains daily with a professional and you receive a transfer session at the end.

Will my dog still listen to me, not just the trainer?

Yes. The owner transfer session is the most important part — we coach you to handle the trained behaviors so they stick at home.

Is it safe and humane?

Absolutely. We use balanced, modern methods and the lowest effective level of communication. Misuse is harmful; professional use is not — read the science on e-collars.

What ages and breeds do you accept?

All breeds and sizes. Puppies under five months have their own program — see puppy training.
