EXPERIENCE THE RETREAT

No matter how little money and how few possessions you own, having a dog makes you rich.

“Hello there! This is a friendly reminder of the upcoming Puppy Preschool & Kindergarten classes on Saturday, March 29th.”

“Did you know during your puppy’s first three months of life; they’ll experience a socialization period that will permanently shape their future personality and how they’ll react to their environment as an adult dog? Gently exposing them to a wide variety of people, places, and situations can make a huge, permanent difference in their temperament.”

“Having a dog who’s well-adjusted and confident can even go as far as to save their life one day. Improper socialization can lead to behavior problems later in life. Behavioral issues, not infectious diseases, are the number one cause of death for dogs under 3 years of age.”

“Classes are filling up quickly, so if interested please message or e-mail us at. training@3dogranchmt.com to get on the list."

Dogs have given us their absolute all. We are the center of their universe. We are the focus of their love and faith and trust. They serve us in return for scraps. It’s without a doubt the best deal man has ever made.

Rocky says, "Three Dog Ranch board-and-train programs can help accelerate the learning process because your pet is constantly with their trainers. A strict routine helps reinforce new behavior, which is what a board-and-train program provides. Your dog will also spend more time in class or actively training than they would in traditional training classes, which can help reinforce lessons and behaviors."
