Board & Train Boot Camp


Our Boot Camp is designed for those families that are either first-time owners, inexperienced owners, or owners with little time to train at home. The training is broken up into two phases. The first phase includes one-on-one training with a certified trainer, during which your dog goes through a rigorous but fun regime of balanced training, which will instill respect and a calm state of mind. The second phase brings the owners into the training, teaching them dog training basics and how to become the leader. This is essential in allowing the dog to live comfortably and relatively carefree.

Puppy Boot Camp


Boot camping your puppy with Tri Canine Campus is the first step in setting your pup up for success! For

puppies four months of age or younger, this program will socialize your furry friends and train them in obedience through fun exercises. Focus is front and center in our methods, teaching your pup to respond to their name, focus on you, and lose their inhibitions to eye contact. At this tender age, dogs will soak up any information. They are exercised several times daily in short sessions with lots of play. The second step of the Bootcamp is to take you, the owner, through the training methods used to teach your pup. The first lesson transfers the knowledge; the next is to correct mistakes being made, and the third lesson is to fine-tune. Your pup's training does NOT stop here! You have now set a solid foundation for your four-legged family member. Continued training in our Obedience 1 and 2 classes will improve your dog handling skills and communication with your pup, deepening your bond even further.

Boot Camp


Tri Canine Campus Basic Obedience Phase 1 is designed to teach your dog how to walk properly while leashed, pay attention to the person holding the leash, perform according to a set of commands, and ignore nearby distractions (impulse control). 


The Basic Commands are sit, down, recall, focus, leave-it, place, stay, and wait. These commands help achieve a calm state of mind with your dog in public and inside your home. 


  • Tri Canine Campus Basic Obedience Phase 2 requires you to learn to perform as a trainer over the next several weeks, learning leash-handling skills and commands in steps, each designed to build upon the successful completion of the previous lesson. You will learn to continue your dog's training and become the pack's leader, effectively communicating in a way your dog understands and will eagerly respond to. Once you are established as the leader, your dog will look to you to help them make decisions in situations they may have insecurely responded to. You and your dog will graduate from Phase 2 with much more confidence in your relationship.
