What to confirm about an obedience stay
- Which cues will be taught and how they will be tested.
- How many hours a day the dog works and rests.
- Whether you receive handoff lessons and a written practice plan.
- What happens if the dog is unhappy or unwell.
- Whether you can see the setup and ask about methods.

Good questions
Before you begin.
Will my dog obey me right after pickup?
Skills may be strong with the trainer and shakier with you at first. Handoff lessons and daily practice help close the gap.
Is a stay worth the price?
It can be for busy households, but the right choice depends on your dog and goals.
What about shy dogs?
Some dogs do better with lessons at home. Ask the trainer how they handle nervous dogs.
How do I keep skills sharp?
Practice a few minutes daily and add new places over time.
