How Full Immersion Board & Train Works
Your dog stays at our licensed Boca Raton facility, next door to Cole Animal Clinic at 901 N Federal Hwy, Boca Raton, FL 33432, and trains multiple times a day with Founder Dillon Mitchell and his team of seven.
Then we teach you everything your dog learned through 3 hands-on go-home lessons, so the results hold up at home.
Four Specialized Tracks
Every Board & Train plan is customized after your $100 in-person Dog Evaluation with Dillon Mitchell.
Most dogs fit into one of four tracks:
- Puppy Head Start
For puppies 8 to 16 weeks old (starting at $6,000 for 3 weeks).
Covers potty training, crate training, bite inhibition, socialization, and early leash manners during the critical developmental window.
- General Obedience
For friendly, energetic, or untrained dogs that need reliable manners on-leash and off-leash (3 to 5 weeks depending on program tier, starting at $6,000, with the 35-Day Off-Leash Standard at $10,000).
Covers sit, down, place, heel, come, drop it, and polite greetings, proofed in real-world settings.
- Behavior Modification
For dogs with fear, anxiety, leash reactivity, resource guarding, or aggression toward dogs or people ($16,500 for 6 weeks or $30,000 for 12 weeks).
Requires a six-week minimum stay, supervised personally by Dillon Mitchell.
- Gun Dog Training
For sporting breeds that need field obedience, whistle commands, steadiness to shot, and land and water retrieves (starting at $10,000 with a mandatory 3-month commitment, 3 to 5 months).
Mandatory three-month commitment (up to five months) across Puppy, Basic, and Advanced Retriever levels.
What a Training Day Looks Like
Dogs don’t sit in a kennel waiting for one short lesson.
Throughout the day, your dog rotates through multiple focused sessions totaling 1.5 to 3 hours of hands-on work, plus structured rest, play, and field trips.
Puppies may do up to 15 short, upbeat sessions a day.
Rehab dogs work through longer, calmer sessions tailored to their triggers.
As your dog progresses, training moves out of our facility and into parks, beaches, elevators, and busy sidewalks across Boca Raton and South Florida.
Where Your Dog Stays
Your dog stays at our licensed facility in Boca Raton, next door to Cole Animal Clinic at 901 N Federal Hwy, Boca Raton, FL 33432, with around-the-clock care from our team.
Because we’re selective about the dogs we accept, we keep a close eye on every dog in our care: appetite, weight, energy, hydration, and overall well-being.
We gladly accommodate raw diets, special food prep, and medications.
