Only if you are willing to put in the work. The kindest thing we do for our dog is give them consistency and repetition. If you are unable to train your dog or provide reinforcement then Walk & Train is a better option. The good news is that any type of training can help prevent bad behaviors caused from boredom. So teaching your dog to heel might solve your digging or chewing problem.
It is never too late to train a dog. Dogs with engraved behavior may require more time but their is such a thing as “teaching an old dog a new trick”.
It is always better to train your dog your self. Board and train programs work but only if the owner reinforces the training. This is why hiring a dog trainer is not about them training your dog. Its about them training you to train your dog.
