Lodge & Learn Training

0% financing for up to 60 months on dog training in Houston. Obedience, house manners, public access, off leash.

 Lodge and Learn, what is it? Our most popular dog training program in Houston is our Lodge & Learn program. A Lodge & Learn program is where your dog stays at our facility while going out on adventures to learn new things every day. A Lodge & Learn at Puptown is every dogs dream vacation camp. Once your dog has completed our Lodge & Learn program they’ll be fully trained and return home to you with follow up instructions, unlimited access to our group classes, and additional follow-up lessons to ensure the transition back home is easy! In our Lodge & Learn program we do all of the hard work for you, and we even guarantee all of our training. Every day starting bright and early your dog will be up and about running, playing, going on hikes or swims all the while learning appropriate play behaviors and good manners. During this time your dog will also learn different obedience commands that will make your time more enjoyable together. Your dog will enjoy going out on
different vacations to parks, stores, participating in training classes, and much more. Our Lodge & Learn programs teach real world skills to dogs, not just how to sit. We believe learning should be versatile and happen in different environments with different distractions, not in a sterile training room. We offer three predefined lodge and learn courses. These programs range from basic to advanced, however we do offer custom lodge and learn programs based upon your dogs needs. Please contact our training department for more information about one of our predefined courses or a custom program that better suits your needs. Give us a call today at 832-930-0073

The Puptown Difference

We don’t just train your dog, we help develop your dogs mind, body and soul. Our training programs are molded into what works for your dog and you, rather than other way around. We know that every dog is different so we won’t use a cookie cutter routine.

This is how we differ from traditional training programs.  We don’t just train at our facility.  We train in parks, stores, trails, lakes, dog parks, malls, airports, downtown, farms, and in our homes. Your dog is your family, and we intend to treat them like our family when they stay with us.

What does this mean for your dog? It means you have a trainer dedicating their entire day to your dogs training, not just 15-20 minutes a day. It means your dog is loved and cared for like one of our own. Your dog will enjoy going on walks, hikes, trips to the store, play time and much more. The reason why we don’t just train your dog in a kennel is because we want the best results and for your dog to learn in real life situations.  We want our obedience, house manners, off leash, and public access training to be reliable in any real life situation.

This is why when your dog completes a lodge and learn program with Puptown, he or she will listen no matter what. Our trainers offer free evaluations and are happy to answer any question you might have. Give us a call today at 832-930-0073
