Board & Train at Tipp to Tail Pet Resort
Professional Training. Peace of Mind. Real Results.
Our Board & Train program is designed for dog owners who are ready for meaningful progress and long-lasting skills – beyond what traditional classes or short day sessions can offer. For 12 days, your dog stays with us and works one-on-one with a certified professional trainer in a structured, positive environment focused on learning, enrichment, and comfort.
And because we’re proudly partnered with Tipp City Veterinary Hospital, your dog’s stay includes the added confidence of onsite veterinary support – something you won’t find at other training facilities or in-home training scenarios.
Who This Program is Designed For
This is the right fit if your dog is:
- Jumping, pulling, or struggling to focus
- Needing a solid foundation of obedience or manners
- Overly excited when meeting new people or dogs
- Having difficulty responding reliably amid distractions
- Ready to take the next step in training – and you want expert support
Dogs must be at least 6 months old and able to succeed in a structured facility environment. A free pre-enrollment consultation ensures the program is a great match.
What Makes Our Program Different
Exclusively Positive Reinforcement Training
We use modern, reward-based training grounded in behavioral science. No shock collars. No prong collars. No fear-based methods.
Your dog’s confidence and emotional well-being matter – and they learn faster when they feel safe.
Veterinary-Supported, Pet-First Care
Your dog lodges at our award-winning Pet Resort and has access to veterinary care next door at Tipp City Veterinary Hospital. This means:
- Health concerns can be promptly addressed
- Medication and dietary needs are monitored
