The Woodlands · Montgomery County
Trained for the life you actually live.
Trails, patios and village parks are everywhere in The Woodlands, which is exactly why so many families want a dog who can walk calmly past other dogs, joggers and strollers. That neutrality is built into every Platinum and VIP program.

Real-world training
Where the field trips go.
- Waterway-style walkways and patios
- Busy shopping centers
- Wooded trails and parks
- Stores with carts, doors and distractions
Field trips and public exposure are part of the Platinum and VIP programs. Calm, neutral behavior around dogs, people and distractions is built in public, then transferred to you in the go-home session.
Getting to Cypress
About 35 to 45 minutes from Cypress.
Drop off at the training home in Cypress, or add the $250 transportation service: pick-up from your The Woodlands home, safe transport both ways, and the first lesson in your home so the training transfers where it matters. Transport home is included in VIP.

Questions
From The Woodlands families.
Do you offer pick-up and drop-off?
Yes. The $250 transportation service picks your dog up from home, returns them when the program is complete, and includes the first lesson in your home. Transport home is already included in the VIP program.
Which areas do you serve?
Houston, Cypress, The Woodlands, Tomball, Katy, Spring, Montgomery, Hockley and surrounding areas. The training home is in Cypress, northwest Houston. Families also drive in from further out for board and train.
Where does my dog stay during a board and train?
In Seth’s home in Cypress, not a warehouse or kennel. That in-home environment is the point: real-world training in everyday settings, so the results transfer to your home.
Who actually trains my dog?
Seth Purdom, personally. Over 16 years of hands-on experience and more than 900 dogs trained. Best Dog University keeps a limited number of dogs at a time so every program stays customized.
Will I hear from you while my dog is away?
Yes. Professional photo and video updates go out on Monday, Wednesday and Friday, so you see the progress as it happens.
What happens when the program ends?
A go-home session where you’re shown exactly how to maintain and build on the results. After that, follow-up lessons and lifetime support. Platinum includes unlimited private lessons; VIP includes unlimited in-home lessons.
