Farm Stays for Previously Trained Dogs: A Home Away From Home

Updated: Sep 26

Boarding That Feels Like Family: Your Dog Deserves More Than a Kennel


At Obedience Training Centre Australia, we don’t just train dogs. We build long-term relationships with them. Once your dog completes one of our training programs, they’re welcome back anytime for what we call a Farm Stay.


It’s everything traditional boarding isn’t: calm, structured, familiar, and personal.


Why Choose a Farm Stay?


We created Farm Stays because our clients often ask, “Can my dog just stay with you when I go away?” The answer is yes! We’ve built our system to make that easy and accessible.


Our Farm Stay program is available exclusively to dogs who’ve completed training with us. This means your dog returns to the same environment where they learned, with the same structure, expectations, and leadership in place. No noisy kennels. No overwhelming chaos. Just calm routines and familiar faces.


Same Price as Standard Kennels with So Much More


We charge the same rate as most local boarding kennels, but the experience is completely different.


What your dog gets during a Farm Stay:


  • The same structure and calm routines from their original training.

  • Time in the home with Sybinta and the family.

  • Off-leash time in secure paddocks.

  • Quiet rest in a crate they’re comfortable in.

  • A peaceful, rural environment designed for behavioural success.


Because we know your dog. We trained your dog. Now, we care for them as part of our extended family.


Structure Prevents Regression


Without structure, trained dogs can easily slip backward, especially when left in noisy, overstimulating boarding kennels with unfamiliar staff.


A Farm Stay prevents that regression by maintaining:


  • Calm crate time.

  • Respectful leash manners.

  • Clear boundaries and expectations.

  • Accountability and leadership throughout the stay.


Your dog doesn’t lose progress while you’re away. They continue living the way they were trained.


We Become Your Dog’s Second Family


When your dog stays with us, they’re not just supervised. They’re known, understood, and guided. Many of our dogs jump out of the car and race to the gate when they arrive. They remember the calm. They remember the clarity. They feel at home.


For owners, it’s peace of mind knowing your dog is not just safe but thriving.


Booking a Farm Stay


We offer Farm Stays year-round, with limited availability to ensure every dog gets proper attention and care. Spots fill quickly during school holidays and long weekends, so early booking is recommended.


To book a Farm Stay or ask any questions, just contact us directly. We’ll confirm availability and make sure everything is set up to give your dog a smooth, happy stay.


The Benefits of a Farm Stay


A Home Away From Home


Your dog deserves more than a kennel. They deserve the calm, structure, and care they were trained with. Our Farm Stays offer just that—a second home with the people who know them best.


Personalized Care


Every dog is unique. We understand that. Our Farm Stay program is tailored to meet the specific needs of each dog. We ensure they receive the attention and care they deserve.


Continuity in Training


One of the biggest advantages of a Farm Stay is the continuity in training. Your dog continues to practice what they’ve learned. This helps reinforce good behaviour and prevents regression.


Socialization Opportunities


During their stay, dogs have the chance to socialize with other trained dogs. This can be beneficial for their development and helps them maintain good social skills.


Peaceful Environment


Our Farm Stay is set in a peaceful, rural environment. This is ideal for dogs who may feel anxious in busy, noisy settings. The tranquility helps them relax and feel at home.


Professional Supervision


Our experienced staff are always on hand to supervise your dog. They know how to handle various behaviours and ensure every dog feels safe and secure.


Regular Updates


We believe in keeping you informed. During your dog’s stay, we provide regular updates. You can rest easy knowing how your furry friend is doing.


Flexible Booking Options


We understand that life can be unpredictable. That’s why we offer flexible booking options. Whether you need a short stay or a longer one, we can accommodate your needs.


Conclusion


Your dog deserves more than a kennel. They deserve a place where they feel safe, loved, and understood. Our Farm Stays provide that and so much more.


We invite you to experience the difference. Book a Farm Stay today and give your dog the gift of a second family.
