Recognized by the Auburn-Opelika Community
Three years of recognition. Thousands of happy dogs. One incredible community.
At RTN Dog Training & Boarding, we believe the greatest recognition isn't something hanging on a wall—it's the trust our clients place in us every day with their dogs.
We're incredibly proud to have been recognized by the Opelika-Auburn News Best of OA awards for multiple years, with honors spanning dog training, dog daycare, pet boarding and pet sitting services.

Voted Best Dog Training, Best Doggie Daycare, and Best Pet Boarding in the Opelika-Auburn News Best of OA 2026 — three wins that reflect what our clients already know.
