Three weeks or five, living here while we work.

Board and train means your dog stays with us for the whole camp. Training for the public since 2019, and around dogs and horses since I was five.

You get updates the entire time. Every owner below mentioned that without being asked.

During his meet and greet Toby was on his best behavior and made it seem like he didn't have any behavior issues. Today he showed the bad Toby that most people meet and he tried to bite her. Heather did not skip a beat and knew what to do and a few minutes later Toby was sitting next to her pawing at her for some love. I did cry when I drove away as I already miss how he is always happy to be around me. I know that he is in good hands and will get the training he needs.

What owners say afterward

  • Levi · Training

    We'd been having some, but not enough progress, with training our sweet foster Levi, and finding you was like a miracle. Your patience and attentiveness made me feel at ease leaving him with you. And believe me, I get anxiety when it comes to leaving my pups with someone, even if they're just my foster. Your updates showed how much you not only know when it comes to dog behavior, but also how much you care.

  • Atlas and Aero · Boarding

    I wanted to reach out to say thank you so much for taking such incredible care of Atlas over the past month. Knowing she was safe in your care gave me peace of mind. And your extra dedication and training meant the world to my sister and I. Thank you for loving on her and Aero and treating them like family!

  • Client · Training

    Our boy is different. We haven't had to do much corrections with him since he spent training with you at Rustic K9 Lodge. We 100/100 percent recommended you to anyone and everyone! Thank you Heather for loving our boy and training him! Plus we loved being able to get updates along the way. He will definitely be back for boarding soon.

  • Maggie · Training

    She is a bundle of energy but with just one day home I can tell she has learned to settle herself more and has gained confidence. Her manners overall are so much better. My confidence in managing her and staying consistent is better too. I am very glad to know we can always call on Heather if we have questions to come up also.

  • Badger · Training

    We are so happy with Heather and our Badger. He is border collie so super smart. Heather worked endlessly to get him to a better place to listen and respond calmly. He has been home today and he is very respectful but still fun loving. You go Heather!!!
    Susan Holmes · Badger
  • Willow · Boarding

    Our girl is thriving! The best trainer and boarder!! She has been coming to them since she was a few months old, she went through training as a puppy and has been back multiple times since.
