Board and Train

Where do dogs stay during their Board & Train?
Dogs can stay at any of the following facilities: 1535 First Ave at the Upper East Side of Manhattan, or 265 West 87^th St at the Upper West Side of Manhattan, or 41 West 13^th St in Greenwich Village, or 71 Broadway in the Financial District. Our facilities are designed with customized play areas where dogs enjoy supervised off-leash play (divided by size and temperament), a full medical suite, and custom overnight suites (bedding provided). Associates are on-site 24-hours a day and all care is overseen by our on-site veterinarian.

Can I visit my dog during the Board & Train?
Yes. Please provide a call in advanced so we can be sure your dog is prepared to greet you. You will also receive daily updates from the trainer plus photos and videos.

What is a day like during the Board & Train?
Dogs enjoy a set schedule including daily relief walks, off-leash running and playing (based on size and temperament), daily indoor & outdoor training sessions, and private suite with on-site overnight supervision. All care is under the supervision of our on-site veterinarian, NY Veterinary Practice. Biscuits & Bath is a Full-Service facility. Please let us know if you would like to add grooming, veterinary, transportation, or food/treats/retail to your dog's Board & Train.

What will my dog learn during the Board & Train?
This will vary based on your training goals and your dog's current behavior. We will regularly work on: basic manners such as jumping up, pulling on leash, chewing household items; obedience training such as coming when called, Sit, Down, Stay, Leave It, Heel; and behavior modification for reactivity, aggression, fear, and anxiety. Board & Trainings can be further customized to meet other specific needs of you and your dog, just ask (price may vary).

How can I make sure my dog will still behave once back at home?
One private lesson will be reserved for you and your dog as part of your Board & Train to ensure you know how to utilize all the skills your dog has learned. All Board & Train alumni have complimentary access to pre-scheduled phone consultations with a trainer and attendance to any Basic Obedience group class at one of our Manhattan locations.

How far in advance do I need to schedule my dog's Board & Train?
Within 3-4 days of contacting us with the exception of holiday periods in which a week's advanced notice is required.
