Unique Dog Boarding & Training Center Opens in Los Angeles

Online, January 13, 2012 (Newswire.com) - Los Angeles, CA- Dog owners in the Los Angeles area are excited about the opening of a new cage free dog boarding (http://www.ladogretreat.com/dog-boarding-los-angeles.php) and training facility just outside of town. Located in the rolling hills outside of Santa Clarita, LA Dog Retreat is a brand new, world class dog training facility founded by Animal Planet star/host Brandon McMillan. The training and boarding center features over 4,500 sq ft of cage free space as well as a climate controlled doggie "suite" offering indoor/outdoor access for guests 24 hours a day.

"Dog owners are sick and tired of ineffective training programs and unsanitary boarding conditions," says McMillan. "The goal here at LA Dog Retreat is to provide an organic approach to dog boarding and training, where dogs are free to roam in a natural environment and enjoy their surroundings."

LA Dog Retreat (http://www.ladogretreat.com/) offers a pleasant alternative to the concrete floors and fluorescent lighting found at most facilities in the city. The center is located on a 7-acre animal compound, tucked away in a small private canyon. The location outside of the city provides miles of private hiking trails and beautiful scenery year round. Comprehensive "stay and train" dog training (http://www.ladogretreat.com/dog-training-los-angeles.php) packages are available for basic obedience, puppy manners, trick training, and even training for film/television work.

Brandon's animal training reputation has been recognized on television several times over the years. Hosting his own show on Animal Planet called "NIGHT," Brandon traveled across the globe to study and film the most elusive nocturnal creatures in the world. Brandon has spent the majority of his professional career training and working dogs for television, film, and commercial work. "Most of my dogs have a bigger resume than half the actors in Hollywood," McMillan adds jokingly. While he still spends time on set, Brandon has found just as much pleasure working with people to strengthen the bond between dog and owner. LA Dog Retreat is the culmination of over 30-years of experience in animal training; a special place where dogs can stay, learn, and thrive.
