WE CAN HELP!
KCTC Training Philosophy: KCTC believes every dog and handler combination has specific and unique needs. Our programs are designed to challenge your dog in a positive training environment. We believe in the total dog concept and focus on 4 critical areas. They are dog obedience, dog behaviorism, dog socialization, and handler training. Dog training is a team effort (dog/handler). The handler plays a crucial role in the development and progression of their dogs. KCTC will work with each handler to ensure our training techniques are understood and mastered. Upon graduation from our courses you will have a dog trainer for the life of your dog. Dog training is an investment and KCTC wants you to get the most from this investment. If you are not prepared to exercise your dog at least 30 minutes a day and reinforce the KCTC training program then these programs might not be the right fit for you.
Assessment: Free. We recommend this in order to find the best program that fits you and your dog goals and needs. Some dogs require longer or shorter amounts of training than others. KCTC will give you an honest assessment. Our courses are incremental so if you wish to further your dog's training we apply the money already spent on one training package towards the price of another training package.
Board and Train Level 1 (Basic Package):
$250
3 Day Course. This course is designed for a dog that already has a good training base but needs work on specific issues such as pulling on the lead or recall. It is also a great refresher course.
Board and Train Level 2 (Premium Package):  
$450
7 Day Course. This is our basic obedience course. We work on mastering the walk, basic leash work and commands, recall on the retractable leash or long line.

Board and Train Level 3 (Premier Package):  
$900

Weight Loss Program: $16 per day. We have had a lot of dog owners who have brought dogs to our center to lose weight. Upon evaluation we can set up an exercise and diet plan that will whip your dog right back into shape! This is like our board and train program in the sense that the dog will stay at our center while they are enrolled in the program. We have had dogs lose as much as 70lbs in our program! We highly suggest taking your dog to a veterinarian prior to enrolling him in our program to ensure there are no other health-related issues.
Client Satisfaction: Every dog we train is one more dog in KCTC's growing pack! Even after you take your dog back home with you, we continue to partner with you to ensure your dog is continuing to grow and develop into that perfect companion. We are easily accessible through emails or phone calls for all your questions and concerns.
