Board & Train
In-Home Training for Real Life
Board & Train is an immersive, in-home training experience designed to help dogs become more capable, resilient, and prepared for the real world—while preparing owners to confidently continue that journey at home.
Every program is tailored to the individual dog, your goals, and what will have the greatest long-term impact on your life together.

Program Options
The Foundation Program (4 Weeks): $4995
Designed for dogs who need structure, clarity, and a strong foundation for everyday life.
The Reset Program (6+ Weeks): $6695+
Designed for dogs requiring more extensive behavioral work and long-term support.
(All dogs with behavioral concerns are placed in this program.)
E-Collar Training
E-collar training may be incorporated into your dog’s program. Hutter K9 exclusively uses Martin System equipment for its precision and commitment to animal welfare.
Whether e-collar use is transferred to you is determined individually based on what is best for your dog and your ability to use the equipment clearly, fairly, and responsibly.
Is Board & Train Right for You?
Board & Train is designed for owners committed to creating lasting change—not looking for a quick fix.
The most successful programs are built on partnership. My role is to create lasting change, but that work continues long after your dog comes home. If you're looking for someone to "fix" your dog while nothing changes at home, this program isn't the right fit.
I work with owners who are committed to taking an active role in their dog's success. Lasting change happens when both ends of the leash are committed to the journey.
At this time, Board & Train is not accepting dogs with active aggression or severe resource guarding. If your dog needs that level of support, I'm happy to refer you to a trusted trainer who specializes in those cases.
Requirements
Dogs must be at least 6 months old
Current vaccinations required
Negative fecal test (including Giardia) within 30 days
Initial Private Training Session required before acceptance
Next Steps
Think Board & Train might be the right fit?
The first step is completing the Training Questionnaire. From there, we'll schedule an Initial Private Training Session to get to know you and your dog, discuss your goals, and determine whether Board & Train is the right fit for your team.
