All Dogs Training Co. offers board and train for owners in The Woodlands who want a dog that stays calm on busy pathways and around lots of other dogs.
The Woodlands is a wonderful place to have a dog, and a hard place to have a reactive one. One walk can mean joggers, bikes, and a string of dogs on leash before you reach the corner. If your dog barks, lunges, or hauls you toward every one of them, you’ve probably started dreading walks. Heather Mozingo, our owner and head trainer, will talk through what’s happening with you on a free consult.
How does board and train help a dog in The Woodlands?
Dogs in The Woodlands have to handle a lot of company, and board and train at All Dogs Training Co. is built for that. The pathways that wind through the villages are full of people and dogs, and so are the Waterway and the patios around Market Street. A dog who’s fine in your backyard can fall apart out there.
That’s why our board and train work includes neutrality around people and other dogs. The goal is a dog who can pass another dog on the path and keep walking with you.
Which program fits a dog from The Woodlands?
All Dogs Training Co. has two custom board and train programs that fit life in The Woodlands, a 2 week and a 4 week, both for dogs 6 months and up.
The 2 week program is about on-leash reliability. Your dog learns loose leash walking, threshold work, place, and coming when called at a short distance, so the pathway walk feels doable again.
The 4 week program is for the dog you want beside you at a patio table on Market Street or at a friend’s house. It adds off-leash walking, coming when called at a distance, and a down at a distance, with a go-home lesson, 3 follow-ups, and lifetime support. For puppies 8 weeks through 5 months, Puppy Jumpstart lays the groundwork early. Compare them all on our training programs page.
Can you help a dog who reacts to other dogs?
All Dogs Training Co. works with dogs who bark or lunge at other dogs, and the plan depends on how serious it is. Board and train can be customized and extended for bigger behavior problems. Day School is not where we’d start with a seriously reactive dog. Tell us what a walk looks like right now, and we’ll be honest about whether we can help. If you’re unsure a stay away from home will work, read does board and train work?
Is Doggie Day School practical from The Woodlands?
Doggie Day School is practical from The Woodlands only if the Cypress area drop-off fits your day. For most weekday schedules, that’s a lot of driving, so a board and train stay or boarding is often simpler.
How far is The Woodlands from the training property?
The All Dogs Training Co. training property west of Houston is about 45 to 50 minutes from The Woodlands in light traffic, often by the Grand Parkway. It’s the longest of our Houston area drives, which is another reason a stay usually makes more sense than daily trips.
Who will train my dog?
Heather Mozingo, owner and head trainer of All Dogs Training Co., works with dogs from The Woodlands. She competes nationally in IGP with her Cane Corso and her German Shepherd. Fewer than 100 Cane Corsos in the world have earned an IGP title, and her Corso, Vinny, holds a BH, FH, IGP I, IGP II, and IGP III. Her story is on our About page.
Questions from The Woodlands
Do you have a location in The Woodlands?
No. All Dogs Training Co. doesn’t have a storefront in The Woodlands. Board and train and boarding happen at our Houston area property, and Doggie Day School drop-off is in the Cypress area.
Can my dog learn to settle on a restaurant patio?
That’s what the 4 week custom board and train at All Dogs Training Co. is built for: a dog you can bring to dinner, on errands, or to a friend’s house. It includes off-leash work in public, a go-home lesson, and 3 follow-ups.
Do you board dogs from The Woodlands?
Yes. Trainer-led boarding at All Dogs Training Co. is open to dogs from The Woodlands, and pickup and drop-off are available. Dogs get five walks a day and are never left alone.
What if my dog needs more than four weeks?
Every board and train program can be extended if your dog needs more time for serious behavior issues or extra reliability. We’ll recommend a length on the consult.
