Board & Train
Our Board and Train program allows clients to have their dogs undergo training while being in the complete care of a trainer!
It's a results-based program where the dog will stay with a trainer for a month minimum and receive full training. Dogs with severe anxiety or aggression issues are expected to stay longer than four weeks.
During their stay, your dog will spend day and night with a trainer, living with them and going where they go, while receiving regular exercise and training without you having to put in the time needed to bring your dog to its full potential!
Once your dog has reached Unleashed Potential K9 standards, they will go home happier, more obedient, well behaved, and under control. You will also receive the personal training you need to maintain and enhance your dog's training. This maintenance training will need to be done for 30-90 days after you get the dog home. This will ensure the long-term success of what was accomplished during the board and training. This maintenance training will be easier for you to do now that the dog has had training, skills, and knowledge.

Would you like your dog to undergo training but don’t have the time or energy needed to work with him to reach the level of training you want?
Are you planning a vacation or business trip? Would you like your dog to undergo training while you are away, so when you return, you’ll be returning to a happy, obedient dog that is under control and well trained?
Are you renovating your home or moving into a new home and would like to have your dog under control and well behaved for when you move in? Is your dog so out of control that you can’t take him into the house but would like to?
Are you expecting a baby and need your dog to be better trained for when the baby arrives?
Does your spouse work away for long periods, and you find yourself often alone and overwhelmed with the responsibility of working, caring for a family, and managing your out-of-control dog?
If you have answered yes to any of these questions, then our Board and Train program is the answer for you!
Meet Duchess the Dogo Argentino
Duchess joined our Board and Train program with Coach Isabelle at UPK9 NB to work on her confidence, reactivity, leash skills, off-leash reliability, and everything in between!
Every week Duchess gained more and more confidence through training which in-turn lessened her reactivity. We are so proud of how far she has come and that her family are all confident with being around her and working with her more so than ever before!
Now Duchess is back home and we passed the training torch off to her family who continue to unleash her potential each day! We love seeing them show up to group classes, asking questions, and working to give Duchess the best life possible!
Meet “Elvis” the German Shepherd
A continued success story of a past Board and Train:
It has almost been a year since my German Shepherd Elvis, a super submissive, non-socialized rescue spent time with Duke Ferguson of UPK9 PEI
Elvis can now walk off-leash, heel, is not afraid of the water or gravel, he is a joy to take anywhere. Elvis continues to learn new things each day and is becoming a confident and relaxed pet. Thanks for your early work and guidance. ~NL Jones
Ozzy Rotti Board and Train with UPK9 PEI
Our 9-month-old Rottweiler, Ozzy, has been back with us for a couple of weeks since boarding with Duke. The change has truly been remarkable. He is much calmer around the house and walking him no longer requires upper body strength, and is in fact quite enjoyable. Even our youngest son can now confidently take him out for walks and play. In summary, the training has enabled Ozzy to truly integrate into our family.
