Training for a dog you can do anything with
Looking for a board and train in the GTA that actually works and your dog loves?
At Honey K9, we offer immersive board and train experiences from our home base in Burlington, designed to help your dog reset, recharge, and learn how to exist calmly and confidently in the real world- while giving you the tools and support to keep progresss going at home.
At Honey K9, we believe training should feel easy, fun, and doable- helping you build a better bond with your dog one real-life moment at a time.
Why Choose a Board and Train?
Sometimes, your dog just needs a fresh start. Whether you’re facing reactivity, anxiety, leash pulling, or simply feeling overwhelmed about where to begin, our board and train program provides the structure, clarity, and space your dog needs to reset and grow.
Your dog stays in our home and becomes part of our everyday life—learning calm behavior, clear communication, and confidence in a peaceful, real-world environment. During their stay, they’ll enjoy:
Daily hands-on training centered around calmness, confidence, and clear communication
Real-world outings throughout Burlington, Oakville, Hamilton, Aldershot, and nearby neighborhoods
Crate training, home manners, and confidence-building exercises
Safe, thoughtful socialization with other dogs
Consistent leadership and a predictable daily routine
By the time your dog returns home, they’ll have a strong new foundation—and you’ll have the knowledge and guidance to keep that progress thriving long after training ends.

📍 Based in Burlington, ON
We’re based in Burlington, Ontario, surrounded by parks, neighborhoods, and trails that provide endless real-life training opportunities. Your dog will stay in a safe, structured home environment—not a kennel or boarding facility—so they can learn, rest, and thrive in a calm, everyday setting.
We intentionally keep our board and train numbers small to ensure every dog receives personalized care, hands-on training, and the individual attention they deserve.
What’s Included:
2-3 week stay in our trainer’s home
Daily focused training sessions tailored to your dog’s goals
Walks and outings around Burlington and nearby neighborhoods
Dog-to-dog socialization (when appropriate)
Crate training and calm indoor routines
Customized go-home lesson for you and your dog
Two private follow-up lessons to reinforce progress
Ongoing trainer support to ensure long-term success
We don’t just train your dog—we teach you how to maintain that progress once they’re back home.
