WHAT SETS US APART?
Have you attended an obedience class and your dog just doesn't seem to get it?
Has your dog been labeled stubborn and your fear this is as good as it gets?
Our Day School Trainers are here to help!
What sets us apart from a typical doggy daycare?
DAY TRAINING is an integral part of this program! We provide enrichment activities, obedience training, obstacle runs, and rest in addition to playtime, and we provide a report card after each visit!
ALSO, we keep our play groups small, REALLY SMALL! While some day care programs may allow 20-30 dogs in a play yard at once (YIKES!), we carefully match TWO dogs according to temperament and play style.
How does it work?
- It's helpful if your dog has completed a STAR Puppy or Basic class before attending our Day Training Program (so we know they'll work well around people and dogs). Completing a class also ensures tht you're familiar with our curriculum and you're able to continue practicing the training cues at home.
- Dogs who aren't a student of the school must be evaluated before attending.
- Complete a registration form, behavior screen and provide copies of current veterinary vaccination records.
- Dogs must be house trained. Owners will be asked to provide diapers or belly bands if your dog consistently experiences incontinence issues (older dogs), or if they lift their leg and mark indoors while at school (young males).
- Please carefully review our School Policies!
PLEASE NOTE: WE HAVE LIMITED SPACE!!!
Rescheduling make up sessions for missed days is an organizational nightmare! ☹️ No worries, we're adding flexible plans in 2022!
- If you know in advance you will be on vacation or be out of town during the month, you please purchase the pay-by-the-day option or our new flexible monthly plan.
- OR -
- If you miss a day due to illness, make up sessions will be during the current month. Make up sessions are scheduled according to availability, and likely on a different day of the week. (Therefore, your dog may be attending two or more sessions in one week to make up for missed days during the current month.)
