Ever wonder why some dog training programs promise quick fixes or apply a “one-size-fits-all” approach, only to deliver unreliable behaviors and eventual regression?
That doesn’t mean your dog is broken. It just means you need a different approach.
Our program is different by design: slower, deeper, and built for real life.
We believe in building lasting behavior change rooted in connection, consistency, and communication your dog can truly trust and understand.
Our Board & Train programs are designed to address behavior where it matters most—at home, in the real world, and with expert guidance every step of the way.
Training shouldn’t fade when the program ends. That’s why, starting in January of 2026, every Board & Train program includes 12 months of LunaDogAI, our trainer-built digital training support system. It’s like having your trainer in your pocket—custom lessons, real-time answers, and professionally filmed guidance so progress continues at home.
No other training company offers this technology. Because your investment deserves more than a finish line.
Real-life training environments
Your dog trains in a safe, home-based setting—not in a kennel. Daily field trips and exposure to real-world distractions help build reliable behavior where it counts.
Safety & structure come first
Each trainer works with a maximum of 5 client dogs at a time. GPS collars, secure home environments, and constant monitoring ensure your dog’s safety and well-being.
Progress you can see
We send you photo and video updates twice a week, so you can follow your dog’s transformation.
Coaching for you, too
Training doesn’t stop with your dog. We guide you through every step of the process, with hands-on lessons and detailed recaps to ensure success continues at home.
Whether you’re dealing with leash reactivity, aggression, anxiety, or just want your dog to listen better, you’re in the right place. A calmer, more confident dog is closer than you think.
From Reactive to Reliable — See the Power of Our Board & Train Program.
Looking for a board and train program that truly puts your dog first? At Koru K9, your dog will live in the home of one of our experienced professional trainers—never in a kennel or crowded facility.
Your dog’s daily routine will include structured training sessions tailored to their needs, along with playtime, exercise, and rest. We treat every dog as if they were our own because we know how much they mean to you.
To keep you connected throughout the program, we send at least two updates per week via email, including photos and videos so you can follow your dog’s progress. Whether your dog is working on leash reactivity, obedience, anxiety, or basic manners, you’ll stay in the loop every step of the way.
When training is complete, we personally deliver your dog back to you and conduct your first go-home lesson. During this session, we teach you everything your dog has learned and show you exactly how to maintain the progress.
This isn’t just dog training. It’s the beginning of a stronger, more connected relationship between you and your dog.
Each trainer works with just 1–5 client dogs at a time, ensuring your dog receives focused attention, personalized dog training, and plenty of affection in a real home environment. This small, intimate setting allows our expert trainers to tailor each session to your dog’s unique personality and behavior challenges—whether it’s leash reactivity, separation anxiety, or basic obedience. Your dog isn’t just trained—they’re cared for like family.
Your dog will receive exceptional care, personalized training, and plenty of individual attention throughout their stay. In our Board & Train program, each trainer works with only 1 to 5 dogs at a time. This intentionally small size ensures your dog receives the focused support they need to succeed.
Each day includes multiple one-on-one training sessions, play, physical exercise, and rest. Your dog will live in the trainer’s home—not a kennel—and will be treated like one of their own.
We don’t just teach commands, we help your dog build confidence, trust, and the skills they need to thrive at home and in the real world.
Your dog’s safety is our top priority at Koru K9. During our Board & Train program, your dog lives in a safe, structured, and supervised home environment—not a kennel facility. This allows for 24/7 monitoring, individualized care, and secure containment when dogs are not actively training or supervised.
Each dog is housed in a crate when unattended, which not only ensures safety but also supports structure and calm behavior. Our trainers follow strict safety protocols to prevent injury, stress, or accidents.
From controlled environments to professional handling, our training programs are designed to keep your dog safe, secure, and thriving throughout their stay.

Yes — your dog will absolutely remember you after completing their Board & Train program.
Dogs are deeply bonded to their people, and that connection doesn’t disappear during training. In fact, time spent apart often strengthens the bond. Rest assured you will be greeted with tails wagging, full-body wiggles, and all.
Throughout the program, your dog is learning new skills, gaining confidence, and practicing calm behavior. When you reunite, you’ll see not only a dog that remembers you, but one that is the best version of themselves.
Our go-home lesson helps you step into your new role as the leader your dog needs, and we provide clear, personalized guidance to make the transition smooth and successful. With continued consistency at home, you’ll build an even stronger relationship with your dog.
