Tailored training for every dog and human.
Board and Train – Obedience
Let us take your dog from square one, to complete off leash obedience.
We train the dogs in our facilities, starting with where they are at and take them to dogs who you would trust anywhere. We take them with us throughout our training day so they get exposure to new people, dogs, and places while getting short obedience sessions daily to really solidify their training.
Board and Train – Behavioral
A great way for your dog to get daily exposure and training.
This package allows you to leave your dog in our care to get intensive training for behavioral issues. We take the first two weeks setting ground rules, breaking bad habits, and instilling confidence in the new rules. After that we begin obedience, helping solidify the training we began and setting a great foundation for you, the owner, to build on.

We rescued a young German Shepherd dog from a recue in Elko, Nevada. We brought him home and named him "BROCK". He seemed to understand some basic commands like sit and lay down and he had a lot of puppy energy which really … More came out when we walked him. He didn't really pull but would take every inch of the leash he could. When we told him to stay, he would lay down and stay in position for about a minute maybe two if we were lucky.
We met JD and had a consultation with him and he told us we had a really good dog and mentioned that they have Sunday training classes that we could come to and work on training Brock.
We decided that since a German Shepherd dog like Brock could be a lot of dog to handle and train ourselves, we decided to put him in "board and train" for professional training.
JD and Carter worked with Brock during the board and train. They did an excellent job with Brock's training. When Brock came home he would sit and stay patiently until he was called. He will sit in "place" for 90 minutes or more. He will even put himself in "place", forget that he put himself there, and after awhile start whining to be called off, he learned "place" that well!
He is pleasurable to walk staying right on our side the whole time. When there are other dogs going crazy behind a fence he walks by barely paying any attention to them, usually just giving a glance at them if even that.
Harrisville Working dogs took our really good dog and helped him become an excellent dog that obeys wonderfully. We have been going to the Sunday training classes so that we can be trained as well as Brock. We are learning more about effective ways to do more training with Brock. The Sunday classes are great for the socializing of the dogs that are there. The structure of the classes is well planned out. With the training foundation that JD and Carter established and with what we have learned at the classes, we have been able to teach Brock more commands and tricks.
Having Harrisville Working Dogs be a part of Brock's life was the best choice we made to help Brock become a wonderful part of our family.
Thank you JD, Carter and the rest of the crew for doing such great important work for our Brock and all the other dogs that you are involved with.
We highly recommend Harrisville Working Dogs training and classes for anyone that wants their dog to be the best it can be.
