Doggie Daycare & Training
Need a bit of extra help with your dog’s obedience, leash walking, public manners, or social skills?
Day training could be an option for you! This is BRAND NEW service we are offering this year to help give you more support and take some of the stress off of your dog’s training.
Our day training service is designed to create a positive and enjoyable experience throughout the day, and help you with training, so you can have a break!
Our daycare is a fun place for your dog to go to learn how to socialize with other dogs appropriately. The training sessions will help with confidence, building more reliability around distractions, as well as learn new commands, games, and skills.
Leash Etiquette & Distraction Training
One of the main complaints we have from dog owners is that their dog pulls on a leash when on walks. Especially around distractions. Teaching your dog to walk nicely on a loose leash while there are distractions in the number one thing you can do to make a dramatic change in your home quickly! Calm walks are the number one best thing you can do with your dog, and wouldn't be it more enjoyable if you both could enjoy it without getting your arm pulled off? Our trainers will work on teaching your dog to walk calmly beside you without pulling, lunging, or straying off the path. After just a couple of days, your dog should know how to handle minor distractions while on walks. This can happen so fast, it's incredible!
Working Through Common Issues
If your dog displays any unwanted behaviors like door bolting, stealing food off the table, pottying in the house, or growling when you try to climb into bed with your spouse, our trainers will address these issues during the training sessions. Whether it's excessive barking, jumping on people, or chewing on furniture, we will work on redirecting those behaviors into more appropriate actions. Throughout the day, your dog will also be integrated into group play, where dogs can learn from each other. During these groups, we also do group exercises like sit-stays, place, structured fetch, etc. Our trainers will guide you on how to continue reinforcing the training at home, ensuring long-term success.
