Everyday Good Manners: the foundation every dog needs

For dogs with no prior training and no aggression concerns. Your dog learns to handle everyday life without the chaos — and you learn how to keep it that way.

What your dog learns
  • Sit, down, stay, come, and walking politely on leash
  • Calming exercises
  • Confidence and coping skills through social play
  • Relaxation during grooming and handling
  • Bite inhibition (to address nipping)
What you learn
  • How to train your dog in basic obedience cues
  • Everyday handling skills that make life easier
  • How to prevent unwanted habits before they start
  • How to notice and respond to your dog's stress signals

The process

How Boarding School programs work

01

Behavior Coaching Session

Coach Francis meets your dog, assesses their behavior, and gives you an honest picture of what they need. In-school or via Google Meet.

02

Program Recommendation

Based on what he observes, we recommend the right program — not a one-size-fits-all package.

03

Enrollment

We walk you through enrollment and secure your dog's spot. Up-to-date vaccination records and signed agreements required.

04

Drop-Off & Training Begins

Your dog checks in at The Dog Ranch — living, training, and socializing in a structured environment.

05

Mid-Program Home Break

Midway through, your dog comes home for about a week. You observe progress and share feedback with Coach Francis.

06

Owner Coaching Session

A required one-on-one with Coach Francis — the methods, cues, and daily habits that keep progress intact at home.

07

Return & Completion

Your dog returns to The Dog Ranch to finish the program with real-world feedback built in.

08

Graduation

Your dog comes home with new skills and a calmer state of mind. You receive a training guide and daily activity schedule.
