All the benefits of Board & Train—WITHOUT sending your dog AWAY.

You don’t have to choose between progress and presence. With K9 Principles Home School Academy, your dog stays where they feel safest—at home with you—while we come to your home and do the training for you to build calm, reliable behaviour that lasts in real life.

Why Families Choose this?

Keep your dog home. Keep the bond strong. Keep life moving.

Board & Train asks you to hand over your dog and hope the training transfers later. With the Home School Academy, you get the same professional results WITHOUT saying goodbye. Training happens where life happens: your living room, yard, and neighbourhood streets. All these benefits at close to half the price of a board and train.
