At A Glance

Dog: Beau
Breed: Pit Lab mix
Age: 1.5 years
Location: 30A area
Program: 2-Week Board and Train
Primary Goals: Focus, command understanding, owner education
Outcome: Trained dog, confident owners, stronger relationship
The Challenge
Josh Bruce and his family sent Beau to training hoping for improved focus and better understanding of basic commands. Like many young dogs, Beau had energy and potential, but needed structure, clarity, and consistency.
Josh wanted more than just a dog who “kind of listens.” He wanted:
- Clear obedience
- Reliable communication
- Confidence that Beau was being trained the right way
- A program that also taught the owners how to maintain results at home
Leaving a dog for a board and train can feel stressful, so trust and communication were important parts of the process.
The Training Approach
Training focused on both Beau and his owners, which is a core part of how training is done at 30A Dog Trainers.
What the program emphasized
- Clear, consistent obedience so Beau understood expectations
- Daily structure and repetition during the Board and Train program
- Regular photo and video updates so owners stayed involved
- Owner education, so Josh and his family learned how to continue training at home
Throughout the two weeks, Josh received frequent updates that explained not only what Beau was learning, but why, helping the owners feel confident and prepared.
The Results
When Beau was picked up after two weeks, the results exceeded expectations.
What changed
- Beau showed improved focus and understanding of commands
- The owners felt confident continuing training at home
- Communication between Beau and his family improved
- The relationship grew stronger through better trust and structure
Just as important as the obedience was the peace of mind Josh felt knowing Beau was both trained and cared for during the process.
Owner Review
“Sent our 1 1/2 year old pit lab mix, Beau, to Monica for a 2 week board and train hoping for improved focus and understanding of basic commands and picked him up with so much more. During these two weeks, Monica sent us countless photos and training videos along with explanations in order to train us as well. We couldn’t have been more secure in knowing our pup is getting trained and also loved at the same time. Not only do we now have a trained pup, we have a stronger relationship with him and also a friend for life in Monica. Thank you!”
