Often, the fastest route to a well-behaved pet is boarding with training. Your dog would stay at our Gilbert facility for two to eight weeks to complete one of our comprehensive doggie boot camps. While two weeks is the minimum to create lasting change in your pup, the length of stay will depend on your goals. After their stay, all boarding with training packages include three to six free lessons so we can transition your dog from our care and leadership to yours. These lessons equip you with the skills you need to effectively communicate and work with your dog.

Boarding with training is a good option for those facing severe behavioral issues or advanced training goals and those who don’t have the time to commit to fully training. Dogs will be assigned one head trainer to oversee their program and will complete a minimum of three training sessions per day depending upon their age, energy level, and what skills they are working on. As they progress, other trainers will handle your dog to help reinforce the meaning of our communication tools and obedience commands.

Top Dog Tempe is located on a 1.5 acre property 100% dedicated to dog training services. We have two indoor climate controlled training rooms that each average over 2000 sq. feet with training elements like treadmills, specialty training toys, flirt poles, crates, place beds and more.  We also have a large fully fenced, grassy park-like arena. This space allows us to train your dog in other contexts; preparing your dog for situations that may occur in backyards, parks, or on walks. Finally we have a 1500-sq ft. boarding facility where your dog will be eating and sleeping between training sessions. Each dog has their own individual run and separate potty break area. All runs are securely double fenced, inlaid with concrete, and shaded throughout the day.

Price: With training, our minimum price is $110 per hour. Please contact us for more information on boarding with training.
