Boarding for our training family, with the trainers your dog already trusts.
Leaving town is a lot easier when your dog is somewhere they already know. Because we've trained them, we know your dog's commands, routine, and quirks, so boarding feels like a stay with family, not a stressful drop-off at a strange facility.
Days are spent with our family on our 2.5-acre property, with daily walks, play, and the same calm structure they learned in training. At night, every dog sleeps in their own crate, indoors, in a fully climate-controlled building (AC in summer, heat in winter), an upgrade from the traditional indoor/outdoor kennel runs most facilities use.

Indoors and out on our 2.5 acres, dogs hang out, play, and train with us, just like part of the family.

"I cannot say enough good things… All dogs are trained right next to Steven's home in beautiful Elgin… lasting changes."
"…This is the third dog this family has taken to ATX K9… They are the best in what they do and it shows in the finished product. Their heart is in it and I highly recommend them."
"…came back a whole different pup (in the best way)! …leash walking, energy management… frequent photo and video updates while we were away on our honeymoon."
