FAQ – Coddled Critters Professional Dog Training

(North Salt Lake, Utah)

What training program is best for a first-time dog owner?

Our Beginner Board & Train program is designed specifically for dogs and owners who are just starting out. It focuses on foundational obedience, leash manners, confidence building, crate training, and polite behavior at home and in public.

What’s the difference between the Beginner and Advanced Board & Train programs?

The Beginner Program focuses on essential obedience and everyday manners, while the Advanced Program builds on those skills with more advanced commands, improved reliability, problem-solving behaviors, and greater off-leash control.

Will my dog learn off-leash obedience?

Yes. Our Advanced Board & Train program includes advanced leash skills and reliability training that can help prepare dogs for safe and controlled off-leash behavior.

How long does it take to see results from training?

Most owners notice improvement immediately after training begins. Consistent practice at home is important for long-term success, and many dogs continue improving even after completing the program.

Do you provide updates while my dog is in training?

Absolutely. We provide regular progress updates so owners can follow along with their dog’s development and understand what skills are being practiced throughout the program.

How do owners maintain training results after the program ends?

We teach owners how to reinforce commands and routines at home through follow-up guidance and practical handling techniques. Consistency and structure are key to lasting success.

What behaviors can your training programs help correct?

We work on common issues such as pulling on leash, jumping, chewing, excessive barking, poor impulse control, lack of focus, and basic obedience challenges. Advanced programs can also address more ingrained behavioral problems.

Is Training Day Camp a good option for socialization?

Yes. Training Day Camp combines structured learning with supervised social interaction, helping dogs practice obedience, confidence, impulse control, and appropriate play behavior throughout the day.

Coddled Crotters were great! We were traveling through from out of state and had an extremely hard time finding a place to board our dogs for a short stay in Salt Lake that worked with our drop off and pick up needs, etc.. They worked with us and we ended up having a wonderful place for our pups to hangout, play and enjoy themselves while we did the same! Friendly, kind, and caring with daily updates. Again just great place overall!!

My 9month old pittie, Hank, has been a lot for my friends and family to handle. A friend of mine takes his dog to Coddled Critters and recommended them to me. For the price, they're tough to beat! $62/night for my large breed, intact puppy and that includes three or so enrichment activities per day plus yard time. $52/day once he is neutered. Hank had a great time at Coddled Critters and I'll for sure be bringing him back. Thank you!

Love Coddled Critters and so does my dog Sonny! He gets so excited to “go see his friends” he’ll whine and whine until they let him back! We have been going here for 5+ years and have found our forever home. Reasonable prices and very communicative staff! We almost always end our stay with a bath and they’re the only ones that Sonny will let trim his nails. I could go on and on about how much I love and appreciate these guys!!

We have loved Coddled Critters, and so does our dog! He is an anxious little thing, and the last few vacation drop-offs we have done, he literally runs to these people! Our whole family loves the every other day report cards we get sent via text, which includes a picture. The facility is clean, the groomer does an awesome job (love that our pup can get a bath and/or a groom before pick up) and our dog always comes home happy.
