While your dog is with us during the day, you can be confident that they are being treated with the same care and respect you have come to expect from our trainers during both our group and private training sessions. We do not use aversives throughout the day, and work with modifying inappropriate behavior using the methods you have come to trust from our professional staff. Each pup has a curriculum designed using techniques and games that are appropriate for their needs, and will enjoy their day at doggy day school!
learn
Each day comes packed full of great activities for a curious pup. Our teachers schedule your pup's day around mental games, training games, tricks, and proofing your cues in the face of a variety of distractions. Prior to joining our school, an introductory meeting is scheduled so we can meet you and your pup and evaluate your individual needs. After the evaluation, a training plan will be made for your pup's time at doggy day school. At the end of the day, you and your pup will go home with a report card of the day's activities.
play
No day is complete without scheduled recess! Your dog's playtime will vary each day, and will consist of either play with appropriate playmates or a rousing play session with his teachers. Care is taken during play to keep pups appropriately excited, without over arousal. Like our learning sessions, play sessions are designed to best fit your pup and her needs for the day.
rest
School can be exhausting! To prevent injury and crankiness, each pup will have scheduled periods of down time to relax, chill, and watch his schoolmates learn.
