Why Trained Bernedoodles Make Perfect Companions

Training a Bernedoodle puppy is about more than teaching tricks; it’s about fostering a deep, mutual connection that transcends all aspects of life. At Hoosier Canines, our compassionate partnership with Training That Lasts focuses on a bond rooted in mutual communication, all essential qualities not just with pets but within all relationships.

Our training programs are designed to make the transition of your Bernedoodle puppy into your family as smooth and stress-free as possible. We emphasize:

  • Housebreaking: Establishing positive habits from the start, like crate training, potty training, and leash training.
  • Chew-Toy Training: Redirecting chewing behavior to appropriate items to protect your belongings.
  • Basic Commands: Teach commands like name, come, sit, lay, up, and down to ensure your Bernedoodle is manageable and sociable.
  • Socialization: Teaching how to interact respectfully with other dogs.

3-Week Board & Train Program: Foundations for Connection

The 3-Week Board & Train program is designed to give your dog a strong foundation in obedience, structure, and communication. Over three consecutive weeks, your dog stays with our trusted partner, Training That Lasts, for a full-time, immersive experience. This program is perfect for puppies, young dogs, or newly adopted companions who need clear expectations and calm leadership from the start.

We don’t just train behaviors, we lay the groundwork for a relationship built on trust. When your dog goes home, your puppy will be equipped with the tools to continue progressing together, as TTL includes transitional training to teach you.

What Your Dog Will Learn:

  • Crate training and consistent potty routines

  • Name recognition and handler engagement

  • Leash manners and loose leash walking

  • Intro to marker-based communication

  • Basic commands: Sit, Down, Come, and Place

  • Calm mindset through structure and repetition

6-Week Board & Train Program: Calm, Collected, Confident

The 6-Week Board & Train is a comprehensive transformation program—ideal for dogs who need more than a foundation. Over six consecutive weeks, your dog will live and train full-time with Training That Lasts, progressing through increasingly advanced levels of obedience and behavior work. This extended program allows us to address deeper challenges and create reliability that holds up in real-life situations.
