Boarding Services
A structured, safe, and attentive home away from home — built on the same discipline that defines our training programs.
Structure. Safety.
Peace of Mind.
Most kennels offer a place to sleep. We offer a structured daily program — the same disciplined routine that makes our training effective, applied to every boarding stay. Your dog doesn't just wait for you to come home. They thrive.
As a veteran-owned operation, we understand what it means to be responsible for someone else's wellbeing. We take that responsibility seriously — every hour of every day your dog is with us.
A Day in the Life
Every boarding day follows a structured schedule — because consistency and routine are what keep dogs calm, confident, and well-behaved.
Morning Wake & Walk
Every dog starts the day with a structured morning walk — leash manners reinforced, energy channeled.
Feeding — Meal 1
Consistent feeding times on a schedule that mirrors healthy home routines. No free-feeding.
Training & Enrichment
Mental stimulation through obedience reinforcement, puzzle work, or socialization exercises.
Midday Rest & Check-In
Quiet rest period with handler check-ins. Dogs are monitored for comfort, hydration, and wellbeing.
Afternoon Exercise
Outdoor play, structured movement, and socialization in a supervised, safe environment.
Feeding — Meal 2
Evening meal served on schedule. Dietary notes and restrictions are strictly followed.
Evening Walk & Wind Down
A calm evening walk to decompress and prepare for rest. Structured, not rushed.
Lights Out
Dogs settle into their designated rest areas. Overnight monitoring ensures safety through the night.

What Sets Our
Boarding Apart
Experienced Handlers Only
Your dog is never left in the care of untrained staff. Every handler at AGD is trained in dog behavior, body language, and emergency response.
Training Reinforcement
If your dog has completed a training program with us, we reinforce those skills during their stay — so they come home sharper, not rusty.
Clean, Safe Environment
Facilities are cleaned and sanitized daily. We maintain strict hygiene standards to keep every dog healthy and comfortable.
Vaccination Required
All boarding guests must be current on core vaccinations. This protects every dog in our care — including yours.
Daily Updates Available
We provide updates on your dog's wellbeing during their stay. You'll never be left wondering how they're doing.
Structured, Not Chaotic
Unlike traditional kennels, our boarding operates on a disciplined daily schedule — the same structure that makes our training programs effective.
Boarding FAQs
What vaccinations are required for boarding?
All boarding guests must be current on Rabies, Distemper/Parvo (DHPP), Bordetella (kennel cough), and Canine Influenza (H3N2/H3N8). We may request documentation at drop-off.
Can I bring my dog's food and belongings?
Yes — we encourage it. Familiar food prevents digestive upset, and a comfort item from home can ease the transition. Please label everything clearly.
How do I know my dog is doing okay?
We provide updates during your dog's stay. You're welcome to request a check-in at any point. Our goal is your peace of mind as much as your dog's wellbeing.
Do you board dogs with behavioral issues?
We evaluate each dog individually. Dogs with known aggression toward people or other dogs may require a separate assessment before boarding is approved. Safety is non-negotiable.
Is boarding available for dogs not enrolled in training?
Absolutely. You do not need to be a training client to board with us. All dogs are welcome, provided they meet our vaccination and temperament requirements.
What is your drop-off and pick-up process?
Drop-off and pick-up are by appointment. This allows us to give every dog and owner a proper transition — no rushed handoffs at a busy front desk.
