We provide your pet's every need. Our 21-30 day basic obedience program will get the results you need!  Mountain Dog Boarding's rates are unbeatable --- 35% cheaper than any other enlistment.  Our drive here is the simple love for animals.  Mountain Dog Boarding also offers:

Perimeter Training --( Level II feature) Keep your pet contained within desired boundaries and safe zones. 190 foot perimeter around your home. This training has worked remarkably well with our Siberian Huskies, one of the top breeds that I have found the most challenging.  This may require an at-home installation,or purchase of the same system for lifelong results, after the facility's training tenure, of a portable electronic device that can be purchased through us or from your local Home Depot; however, this may or may not apply.  Here, perimeter trained dogs make an immediate association with little white flags placed around the property, so naturally, the dog will continue to do so wherever those flags are placed as long as the association recalls a memory of a mild discomforting electronic correction. It all depends on the the breed--- Dogs learn very quickly in this realm. The results are excellent.We use Pet Safe's Instant Fence; a wireless transmitter/receiver system that corrects the dog's path of errant direction as long as the boundary is in violation. Results are 100% effective.The dog automatically returns in the direction in which it came, usually to its sleeping quarters,or to an another area of canine recall. This system is great!! We install these perimeter training systems every weekend. Talk to us, let us know that you are serious. We can help you no matter what.We want to be your cure for canine problems. 

 All food and amenities are provided to your pet, all medication or other needed treatments are given as directed.  The Mountain Dog Boarding facility is nothing short of a pet hotel.  All pets are camera and audio monitored 24-7...  This also serves as an aid in discovering latent behavior and personality traits.  Most pets will do their mischief behind the scenes where they think everything is swell and the coast is clear.  We use our trained canines as an aide to train your dogs! A dog must be caught in the act of the undesired behavior in order to be correctly admonished for such action.  The animal has no idea what you are referring to otherwise.  Being caught in the act leaves no room for question.  This proves to be the best method in quickly quelling such undesirable actions.

Mountain Dog Boarding also offers Pick-up and delivery* , and we have at least one trip per week to the city of Atlanta for clients who need this luxury and convenience.  This service is for boarding-training only.  We also do at-home-space-planning (finding optimum recreation and living areas for places that are hard to seat), light construction and clearing no problem. My kennel design is mine and mine alone. Let me build you a permanent structure at your home that is the best and the brightest, all materials provided from The Home Depot.  Mountain Dog Boarding provides all vaccines except for Rabies.  We do not accept dogs that are not properly inoculated with Rabies.

*Pick-up and delivery is based by distance.

 *LEVEL 1 : Basic 21-30 day Boarding Training Package:    $1,200.00-  $1,425.00; 21 days/ 30 days. Level 2 Perimeter Training is usually added to this level for off the leash come command, $175.00. See Perimeter Training below. That puts the 30 day course at $1,425. Puppies require the most time and guidance. Puppies can cost more, depending on the breed and what we are trying to accomplish with it during it's training tenure.  (Also dogs that are older and sure-set in their ways). This is the full Level 1 obedience course--- the recommended  training package for those who wish to have perfection in their pet's obedience commands. 

 *Total Package:  (includes both levels 1 & 2): $2,400.00; $2,800; $3,500: 60 days; 90 days or 120 Days;  Reserved only for  those who want to have the best and the brightest; total perfection: a super-well-trained-dog, and a life-long companion. This Package is loaded with extra features!! (Swimming at the lake). THIS LEVEL IS ALL OFF THE LEASH! WE USE OUR HIGHLY TRAINED CANINE STAFF TO HELP TRAIN YOUR DOGS ON ALL POINTS. BOARDING FEES INCLUDED.

All electronic collars are deemed as  accessories, ranging from $119.00--375.00. All are top of the line and lifetime warranted.

*Basic 7 day Boarding Training: $425.00 This course is reserved for dogs  that need minimal obedience correction and/or a full crash course of minor behavioral issues that can be resolved in 1 week or less. 1 week's worth of professional training is worth more than no training whatsoever. Call me for specific questions of your  canine behavioral issues.  Boarding fees are included.

*Basic 10 Day course is $475.00

*45 day course is wildly popular, it bridges the gap between Level 1 and Level 2 training, $1800.00

*Basic 14-day Boarding Training package: $800.00 This is more involved and more assured for dogs that seem to be a little tougher than the above mentioned. This course offers exactly 1/2 of the full obedience training outline for those dogs who are already 1/2 way there at this present moment. Meaning, issues that need to be perfected, and transposed from trainer to the owner.

*Intermediate Training, 16-21 days: $950.00--All dogs for this level must first be confirmed in their Basic Level I Skills. (Dogs that are already trained and are needing an upgrade to elevated skill sets). See total package.

*Perimeter Training, $175.00; This is a LEVEL II- OFF LEASH- training feature and is added to basic obedience level one for those who wish to keep their pets contained. This is highly recommended for dogs that love to roam, chase, or are at a high risk of being hit, stolen, or maybe even being dead without your knowledge before you even realized that they haven't been around lately.  Perimeter training is the crux of all obedience. Don't let your pet step into harm's way, teach them their boundaries today!

• We do at-home perimeter training and perimeter system installations on a regular basis.

• We install Chain-Link fencing around your property. 

We have a training package just for you and your pet! We offer hourly training sessions for those who just need a head start on crash course issues. I will work with whatever issues that you like. I'm Flexible and will work with you.

All Dogs Trained receive an extra, free-of-charge feature: Threshold training. Keep your pets out of certain no fly zones in your household. Bedrooms, Kitchen, upstairs, downstairs, trash cans, bathrooms, furniture...etc,..

***The Boarding Training fees above are set at the average  Medium - Large. Small dogs are less. Very large breeds are more due to their care and handling accommodations. Pit bulls are a minimum of $1,800-2,500.(Please see above link on the tool bar for in depth details on Pit bulls). Siberian Husky training is a minimum of $1,800- $2,500; a 30-45 day minimum on this breed is required at the outset. Huskies are very difficult because of their strong and dominant state of being. These are independent entities and are hard to have and keep around and personally enjoy as a common canine companion. Training on this breed must start at the very early stages of the pup in order to make a strong and respectful bond.  Huskies need to feel that they are dependent upon the owners rather than themselves. Tough, tenacious and very hearty breeds.

*Potty Training: Minimum: $175.00- plus the cost of boarding: 14-21 days. It is simply not possible to JUST potty train a dog and ignore all the other obedience issues that need to be taught during this critical stage of  behavioral guidance. The "come" command and the "out and go potty command" must be solidly taught, along with socialization issues and everything else. We use other trained canines to assist us with the rapid training techniques-- by way of setting the "example." Call us for more details.

We provide all Vaccinations including Canine Cough Bordatella; However we do not administer these vaccinations, that will be done by the owner of the pet during the intake period. We can also arrange to have Rabies with our local vets. 24 hour Vet on call.

All trained dogs are picture-posted on our ever-growing website with prior approval by the owner. We have a list of referrals at your request. We can in this way offer people an assurance of services that are in common concern. Call us for more information:
