If a man’s life is not long enough, a dog’s is even shorter, and anything you can do to make that fuller is worthwhile.

Board + Train
At Iron Oak Dog Co. we understand that every dog is unique, which is why our Board + Train services are designed to cater to their individual needs. Our expert trainers focus on building a strong foundation of trust and communication while creating a structured environment that promotes learning and growth.
Your dog stays in our home, living alongside our personal dogs, instead of a commercial kennel environment. We take a very limited number of dogs in for Board + Train at any given time. This ensures the highest level of attention and care for your companion.
