The best way to sum up the difference is private lessons are geared towards teaching you how to teach your dog while board and trains get the best training results.

Because dogs live with trainers during training, the amount of training reps going into dogs is substantially higher than during private lessons. If you are looking for help training your own dog we recommend lessons, and if you want the best training results we recommend a board and train program. Learn more about each of these programs in our Programs section.
