Is board and train worth the money?
For most families, yes. A few weeks of structured training costs far less than years of damaged property, stressful walks, and a dog you cannot fully relax around. Every camp also bundles private family lessons, DaySchool or DayCamp reinforcement days, and weeks of group classes, so you are buying a full training system with the boarding built in.
How much is the PD360 assessment, and do I have to do it first?
The PD360 assessment is $199 for your first dog and $149 for a second, and it is applied as store credit when you enroll in the camp or program we recommend, or in a membership; the credit does not apply to à la carte bookings or general reservations such as a boarding stay, drop-in daycare days, or grooming booked on their own. It is 4+ hours with your dog plus a 30-minute pickup meet. It is required before Behavior Camp and Transform Camp, and it is the smartest first step any time you are unsure which path fits.
What makes a membership the best value?
Memberships drop your effective rate to about $5 per training hour, far below the $65 single-day rate, and Plus, Premium, and Platinum include 10%, 20%, and 30% off everything else. On top of the day savings, those tiered discounts add up: a Premium membership saves a typical family about $3,367 a year, and Platinum about $6,485, depending on how much you use each month.
Do you offer financing?
Yes. Partners Dogs references financing options such as Coaching Financial, LendingUSA, and PayPal Credit in current program guides. Approval, rates, and terms are handled directly by the lender.
What is due upfront for a camp?
Most camp reservations use a $100 deposit (never cash-refunded; store credit with 48+ hours' notice) to hold dates. In most cases 50% is due at check-in and the balance is due at pickup.
How does the loyalty program work?
You earn one point for every dollar you spend, plus 500 points for each friend you refer and a 500-point bonus on every fifth referral. Points redeem for account credit on a rising scale, from $2 at 100 points up to $375 at 7,500 points. The more you invest in your dog, the more you save later.
Are your prices higher than other Arizona dog trainers?
Compared to other professional, full-service training schools in Maricopa County, our pricing is competitive for what is included. You are paying for 28+ years and 70,000+ dogs of experience, two climate-controlled Arizona campuses, a 4.8-star rating across 2,000+ reviews, and programs that bundle private family lessons, DaySchool days, and group classes rather than board-and-train time alone.
What happens if I need to cancel?
Cancellations are handled as store credit rather than cash refunds. With 48 hours of notice or more, you receive credit toward a future program, class, or service. Camp reservation deposits of $100 are nonrefundable because they block trainer time on the calendar.
