Ridgeside K9 Ohio
Ridgeside K9 Ohio’s Board and Train options are the most popular, efficient, and effective way to obtain world-class control and obedience on your house pet.
Our Board and Train programs are the base of our dog training business at Ridgeside K9. We offer multiple board and train programs depending on your dog training needs, goals, and issues you may have.
Each board and training program is customized for the individual dog. During our board and train programs, your dog is glued to its assigned trainer. Dogs stay with us for the duration of training at the facility or live with their assigned trainer.
During training, trainers will send you daily progress reports and numerous photos so you can follow along and always stay in the loop on how your dog is doing. Contact us for more information!
In addition to your one-on-one “go-home” lesson, each listed training package is backed by our refresher guarantee.
Should any issues arise after training, you can request a refresher lesson, free of charge. A trainer can come to you and work through the issue in a 1-hour session. We also have monthly group refresher classes (check our socials like our Facebook page for dates and times) that are also free to attend.
If you are located in Akron, Canton, Cleveland, or the surrounding area and are in need of getting your dog or pup professionally trained contact us below.

Ridgeside K9 offers both in-facility and in-home turn-overs based on where your dog is training and the goals you are looking for. A home-like environment is typically the best option for a turnover.
That’s why our individual training facilities are all built to resemble a homelike environment whenever possible. Counter surfing, trash can robbing, couch-jumping, window slamming, front door escaping, possessive resource guarding issues, etc – all occur at your house.
This is a 2-Week Board and Train Program for dogs over 6 months old with little to mild behavioral issues.

Manners can include but are not limited to: Counter Surfing, Chewing Furniture, Getting in the Trash, Jumping, Excessive Barking and more.
This is a 3-4 Week Board and Train Program to cover any additional issues outside of basic off leash obedience and manners. For example: Crate Anxiety, Separation Anxiety and General Anxiety.
As well as reactivity, in any form. The minimum time for this program is 3 weeks, if an additional week is needed this will be communicated and scheduled with you.

This is an E-Collar and prong collar training course. Once your dog has an understanding of the obedience commands, they will be properly and gradually introduced and trained in understanding of the E-Collars Tone, Stim, and vibrate.
During these weeks in training your dog will live and learn with their assigned trainer. All obedience commands will be taught in the first week (Come, sit, place, down, stay, heel, proper manners) to help aid in the success of the additional behavioral issues in the following weeks. It’s important to note that not all dogs have the ability to be socially sound, and may need consistent management in order to successfully navigate life.
UPON COMPLETION OF ANY TRAINING PACKAGE: We will have a 2-3-hour lesson with you, this will include: Learning how and when to use your e collar. Learning about motivations and rewards, learning and giving new commands and communicating with clarity, correcting unwanted behaviors, reinforcing and rewarding desired behaviors and learning how to stay in control.
