RETREAT AND TRAIN IS BACK!


Retreat and Train at Laughing Dogs Academy is open for booking.

Come stay with us here on Vashon Island in Washington State for a fully immersive three-day training experience with your dog. Thursday evening through Sunday afternoon, you and your dog will have your own separate, fully equipped apartment on the Burton Peninsula while we work together intensively across five sessions.

This program is designed for people who are ready to go deep. We focus on strengthening the relationship between you and your dog, building the foundational and advanced companionship skills that allow your dog to go anywhere with you and live their very best life alongside you.

SeaTac is your arrival point. Rent a car, take the ferry, and leave the rest to us.

If driving directly from home, there is a north end and a south end ferry that brings you directly to us from either Tacoma or Seattle

Spaces are limited. Reach out to reserve your spot.
