1. “I’ve already spent so much on trainers. Why would this be any different?”

You're not alone—many of our clients come to us after trying other trainers with little to no success, or even worse - their dogs behaviour deteriorated during the process.
The difference here is that we use proven, real-world methods that get results - just take a look at our reviews. In as little as a 4 week residential board and train, we can transform your dog into an happy, obedient and loyal companion.
And we stand by our work: we offer FREE lifetime support from the moment your dog comes home - and that's a guarantee. If you follow the take-home program, attend the support group classes, and stick to the in-home management plan and don’t see lasting results, we’ll refund you. We’re that confident in our training program. Once you're a part of The Royal Canine Academy family, you'll never struggle alone again.

​

2. “I have a tough, restricted/large breed. Can you actually train my dog?”
Absolutely. We've worked successfully with everything from terrorist terriers to crazy working breeds. The idea that some dogs are simply “untrainable” is a myth—we tailor our approach to your unique dog and their needs.
 

3. “I’m not sure that a board and train will work, what if my dog stops listening to me when they come home?”
When dogs come home, there is a transition period - this depends on how long they've been badly behaved at home, lifestyle and adherance to the new plan etc. but this period is a week or two for most dogs. Our extensive, FREE lifetime support and guidance makes sure your dog continues to be the super duper well behaved angel you'll have seen in our video check-ins during the residential board and train. We're so confident in our training that we never, ever stop supporting you and your dog.

​

4. “Board and train programs are way too expensive”
Quality training is an investment—but it’s one that saves you time, money, and stress in the long run. Many of our clients have already spent more on ineffective methods and equipment that they never use. Our approach is not only efficient—it’s results-driven.
 

5. “I’ve tried everything. Nothing works.”
We hear this often. The truth is, most people have only tried a few generic techniques - but they've tried them over, and over again. Our system is personalised, practical, and focused on what works specifically for your dog. We're hands-on, practical trainers that teach dogs in a way they understand.
 

6. “My dog is just too badly behaved. My dog is too old too. I don’t think they can be trained.”
We’ve helped thousands of dogs who were labeled “hopeless.” The real issue isn’t your dog—it’s the method being used. Our job is to find what works for your situation, and we’re confident we can help. We've had dogs as old as 17 years training with us - successfully. No dog is ever too old to train.
 

7. “I don’t have time for an intensive training program.”
We get it—life is busy! That’s why our residential board and train program is designed to do the hard up-front work for you and complete it in as little as 4 weeks - meaning you have more time to enjoy your dog in your hard-earned free time. And we design a lifestyle plan that's specific to you and your dog, so that with just a few minutes a day and a management plan, you can keep up the huge changes your dog makes in the training.

​

8. “What if I need extra support?”
You're never on your own. We offer direct coaching in the form of FREE group classes for life, and ongoing phone/in-person and whatsapp support for the rest of your dogs life to make sure you feel confident every step of the way, all we ask in return is you do the prescribed homework. We also have a stacked online portal packed full of video's and how-to's to help you take your dog training to the next step in your own time, included in the cost of our 4 week and above board and train plans. Purchasing a board and train plan with us is an investment into the long-term success of your dog, for life.

​

9. “What if this doesn’t work for me and my dog?”

If you follow the take-home program, attend the support group classes, and stick to the in-home management plan and don’t see results, we’ll refund you. We’re that confident in our training program. For more information about this please see our Terms and Conditions page.

​

10. “Can’t I just figure this out myself?”
You could try—but how much more time and frustration are you willing to go through? Our board and train program creates the changes you've been struggling to achieve with your dog in as little as 4 weeks - so you can let go of all the stress and start enjoying your dog.
