Blue Chip Canine
WHAT IS BOARD & TRAIN
Board and Train is an immersive program where your dog lives with our trainer and receives consistent, hands-on training throughout the day. This isn’t a boot camp—it’s a carefully structured program focused on clear communication, trust, and practical skills that translate into
the real world.
Whether you’re looking for stronger obedience, off-leash reliability, or simply a calmer, more cooperative companion, Board and Train delivers focused results while allowing you to take a step back and reset routines at home.
WHO IT’S FOR
This program is ideal for:
Owners who need a time-efficient jumpstart to training
Dogs who struggle with consistency, impulse control, or manners at home and in public
Busy families who need support building a solid foundation
Active households who want a companion they can take anywhere
We work with dogs over six months old who are crate-trained and free of aggressive behavior. This program is not for dogs with reactivity or bite history.
WHAT’S INCLUDED
Each Board and Train program includes:
2–3 weeks of immersive daily training with Cameron
Structured routines that reinforce calm behavior
Socialization and environmental exposure (parks, stores, trails)
Clear communication and real-life problem-solving
Transfer lessons with you at the end of the program
Follow-up coaching to maintain progress at homedit me. It's easy.
You’ll also receive video updates and guidance throughout your dog’s stay, so you’re never out of the loop.
WHY IT WORKS
At Blue Chip Canine, we believe that effective training is about more than just commands; it's about building a strong, trusting relationship between you and your dog. We focus on practical, real-world skills that enhance your everyday life together.
Our approach is personalized and respectful, ensuring that both you and your dog feel confident and connected. We work with dogs over six months old, providing the guidance and support needed to navigate life's adventures together.

SUCCESS STORIES
Hear from Our Happy Clients
Dog- Harley, American Bulldog/Pitbull Mix
"I have worked with Cam since my dog was 4 months old. Cam not only trained beginning and advanced obedience with Harley, but also helped us through other dog issues (home behavior, dog reactivity , etc). I feel Cam has knowledge about every technique out there and every dog related issue and if he doesn’t he is always willing to research or take steps to learn so he can continue helping Harley. Not only does he work with the dog, but he works with you on how to handle/train your dog. The lifestyle I wanted with my dog was to take him everywhere with me and I am able to do that with a dog I trust. There are great accomplishments with the dog, but also personally in developing myself as a leader and how to handle any situations. Everywhere I go– I get compliments on how obedient he is. It’s nice to get my dog to sit and listen to me in a place full of chaos– or go on a stroll with my dog walking nicely beside me. Cam has helped us every step of the way. Our favorite thing is his recall, and at 1 year old Harley can be trusted fully off leash in almost every outdoor place we take him and when he is on leash when we’re out in public he has extremely amazing leash manners. Thanks cam! I highly recommend him"

Dog- Atlas (Australian Shepherd)
"Cameron is a wonderful trainer to work with. My dog Atlas is a mini Australian Shepard and has the crazy energy that goes with it. After spending too much time and money at other places and with other ‘trainers’ with no results I was at a loss. Atlas and I had met with Cameron for the first time and he immediately showed me that he could turn Atlas around to be a great dog. Cameron was very kind, he explained everything he was doing and even sent session videos to show how to do things properly and to show Atlas’s progress in training. Cameron was very flexible with my chaotic first responder schedule and was always willing to work with me. Atlas will continue training with Cameron to get him exactly where he needs to be. I cannot fully express enough how positively Cameron has changed ours and Atlas lives. If you’re looking for a friendly, compassionate and driven dog trainer, look no further! "

Dog- Dobby/Doobie - Purebred Doberman
"Cam took such great care of our guy, Dobby! Cam did a bunch of training sessions with Dobby and I saw significant improvements in his demeanor and behavior in public and at home. Dobby has always been a little fearful so Cam taking the time to take Dobby into stores and social situations when I have to be at work is so great and amazing and I know Dobby couldn’t ask for a better training partner than Cam! Highly recommend his services and can vouch from experience that Cam truly loves and respects dogs!"
