What is a Training Retreat?

Two dogs sitting on a black floor in front of blue seating, one brown and white with a blue collar, the other black with white markings and a purple collar, both looking up and smiling.

A retreat is a short-term, immersive training stay where your dog lives in our home, practices real-life skills daily, and learns in a calm, supportive environment. It’s a chance for dogs to reset, build confidence, and return home with new skills.

Why Freedom Found?

This isn’t a kennel setup. It’s a real-life home with real-life structure. Your dog will live in a calm, supportive environment, train in a variety of settings, and have daily routines that support behavior change. The work we do focuses on long-term growth and lasting results, not short-term control.

Is This Right for Your Dog?

This program might be the right fit if:

  • Your dog is reactive or shut down in public

  • You’ve tried other programs and want a fresh approach

  • You want a professional to take the lead and build a custom plan

  • You want progress based on behavioral science, not just obedience drills

If your dog needs medication support or collaboration with your vet, we are happy to coordinate.
