Carol Hein-Creger - Canine Training Center

BOARD YOUR DOG AT CAMP CAROL!

Let AnnaBelle's Lead Trainer, Carol Hein-Creger of the Canine Training Center, care for your dog when you're away!

All dogs stay in the comfort of her home and enjoy many opportunities to socialize with other dogs (if appropriate) as well as people. Expert, personalized loving care and knowledgeable supervision insures your dog has the best experience possible. Daily access to a beautiful one acre play yard insures your dog will be kept happy and occupied.

Extra options include BOARD AND TRAIN packages. Reservations are limited and first consideration is always given to AnnaBelle's clients and Canine Training Center past and present students. For rates and additional information, please contact Carol at 517-231-2189 or 517-857-2884.

About the space

The kennels are on my property in Grand Ledge. I have a pole barn, part of which I have renovated to serve as my kennel space. There is full climate control, video monitoring, a TV, a bed for snuggles, large individual kennels, and a large private yard in which to run and play.

There are only 3 spots available in my kennels; this is because it is just me taking care of them-- not a team of employees that can juggle more dogs. However, this means that your dog will get plenty of
individualized attention! <3

Your dog does not have to interact with other dogs if they do not want to. If they do like having dog friends, I have several dogs that are willing to run and play with others. Introductions between dogs are done very slowly over the course of several days.

Board & Train

The Pals Canine Academy's unique Board-and-Train program is designed to be flexible and effective. Choose one or more problem behaviors you'd like to address, and how many training sessions you want for your dog during their stay.

Training sessions are intended to target specific problem behaviors. The goal of these sessions is to create progress and gain a better understanding of how to address the behavior at home. Training sessions are limited to a total of two hours per day. This is intended to keep your dog fresh and not to burn them out on training. They retain information better when they have a balanced routine, rather than training all day every day.

After your dog's stay, I (Dagny), will email a training plan for you to follow at home to continue working on the problem behaviors where they occur.
