Off-Leash Training for Christian County's Rural Properties
Christian County isn't all city streets and sidewalks. Drive ten minutes outside Hopkinsville in any direction and you're surrounded by farms, rural homes, and properties measured in acres rather than square feet. For these property owners, off-leash reliability isn't a luxury—it's a practical necessity.
Why Rural Dogs Need Off-Leash Training
A dog that won't come when called on 5 acres is a dog at risk. Wildlife encounters, road dangers, wandering onto neighboring properties, or simply disappearing into the tree line—rural living presents hazards that city dogs never face. Our training prepares dogs to respond reliably regardless of distance, distractions, or the temptation to chase deer into the next county.
The Freedom Board & Train Difference
Our 1-Week Freedom Board & Train ($1,500) is specifically designed for rural property owners. The entire program focuses on building rock-solid off-leash recall that works across any distance. Your dog learns that "come" means NOW—not eventually, not after investigating that interesting smell, but immediately.
For comprehensive training including multiple commands, our 2-Week Board & Train ($2,700) provides full off-leash obedience with six guaranteed commands—perfect for dogs who need to be reliable in all situations on your property.
Farm Dogs & Working Breeds
Many Christian County families have working breeds—German Shepherds, Belgian Malinois, Labrador Retrievers, and others bred for jobs. These dogs need mental stimulation and clear structure. Our training provides both, channeling their intelligence and drive into reliable obedience rather than destructive or nuisance behaviors.
